Toyota Blizzard

The Toyota Blizzard is a great four-wheel-drive car. It is based on Daihatsu Taft. Daihatsu produced Toyota Bilzzard for Toyota from March 1980 into the 1990s. The LD10 Blizzard is based on the Daihatsu Taft (also known as the Scat), but in the third quarter of 1984 the LD20, based on the Daihatsu Rugger (Rocky in most export markets), appeared. The Blizzard was only intended for the Japanese domestic market.
It is a rare Toyota vehicle with less than a dozen known examples in North America. Visually very similar to the Dahatsu vehicles, they were rebadged by Toyota and utilize Toyota engines.
The Blizzard was originally equipped with the naturally aspirated L diesel, but beginning in the summer of 1984, they came equipped with the 2.4-litre 2L or the 2L-T turbodiesel. The engines were originally coupled to a Toyota 4-speed manual transmission, while 1983+ models came with a 5-speed. The axles are of a Daihatsu construction.
