Assetto Corsa – Introducing the Toyota Celica ST185

Kunos Simulazioni introduces yet another car that will be part of their upcoming “Ready To Race” DLC for Assetto Corsa which will be available for purchase on May 18th (Steam). The new DLC car pack will feature 10 exciting racing cars including the iconic Toyota Celica ST185 Rally Car.

The Group A Toyota Celica GT-Four RC/ST185 made its competition debut on the Monte Carlo Rally, the opening round of the 1992 World Rally Championship series, the beginning of a competition history that was to be even more successful than its illustrious predecessor, the ST165.

In order to meet the homologation requirements for Group A competition, 5,000 GT-Four RC production versions of the Celica were manufactured and sold in Europe, Australia, and Japan. This model was a logical development from the regular road-going Celica coupe and was introduced in September 1989.

Toyota Celica GT-Four RC/ST185 was powered by a 1,998 cc intercooled and turbocharged front, transversely mounted 3S-GTE Straight 4 engine that delivered 295 bhp / 220 KW @ 5,700 rpm. The power was transferred to all 4 wheels through a 6-speed manual gearbox.
