Launch and Early Production
The L500 generation debuted in 1994, with production of the L500 Miras officially starting in September 1994. This launch set the stage for a new era of the Cuore/Mira line.
Design Continuity with the L200
Although the L500 introduced subtle styling tweaks, it retained a look similar to its predecessor, the L200, and was still built on the same chassis as the third‑generation model. This continuity helped preserve the familiar driving character of the Cuore series.
Engine Options and Extended Production Run
The L500 offered engine displacements ranging from 659 cm³ to 847 cm³, including the 847‑cc carburetted ED‑10 engine used in export markets. Production continued beyond the initial years, with Toyota Indus Motor Company manufacturing the L500 from March 2000 until 2012.
