Toyota SA
The SA was Toyota's first new passenger car design (as opposed to updating the AA) after World War II. It was the first in a family of vehicles before the introduction of the Crown. A series of light trucks also shared the chassis and major components of these passenger cars. All of these vehicles were sold under the Toyopet name.

It differed from all previous Toyota cars by having a 4-cylinder engine (previously a 6-cylinder was used), 4-wheel independent suspension (previously using rigid axles with leaf springs) and a smaller, "ponton" influenced aerodynamic body. The project was driven by Kiichiro Toyoda under the wisdom of his father's (Sakichi Toyoda) words, "Stay ahead of the times""Toyota: Fifty Years in Motion", Eiji Toyoda, Tokyo: Kodansha International, 1987, , p119 but most of the design work was done by Dr Kazuo Kumabe."Fifty Years of Toyota Concept Cars", in "the wheel extended", vol 17, no.3, 1987, Toyota M ...
