Sedan
Starting with the 230 launched in February 1971, the Cedric and Gloria were integrated into one model. The Cedric and Gloria then differed only in the hood panel/mascot, radiator grille and rear combination lamps and finisher, etc. In April of the same year, a 4-door hardtop version (without center pillar) was introduced, Japan's first in the 2-liter class. Following a minor change in April 1973, the Custom Deluxe was fitted with a heated rear window as standard.
