In 1966 Oldsmobile brought the future to the US market, with the radically designed Toronado. The design was bold, with flowing bodylines complementing a unit-body chassis with subframe, a torsion-bar suspension and front-wheel drive, which had not been seen in a domestic car in nearly 30 years. Bolted to the assembly was an independent front torsion-bar suspension system, tubular hydraulic shocks, an anti-roll bar and power-assisted steering. By 1970, power-assisted front discs were standard equipment used in conjunction with rear drums.

Imported into the UK in 2019, this striking 1970 Oldsmobile Toronado has been described by the vendor as being in ‘Great’ shape mechanically. All Toronados are rare and with the 1970 model year came a slightly altered design that is likely to be rarer still. The first American front-wheel drive car since Cord made one in 1936, it utilised the UPP front subframe, which after testing for 1.5 million miles, proved reliable and then used in the robust GMC motorhomes of the 1970s. Power was via a 455ci engine mated to an automatic transmission. Finished with two-tone Blue and Silver Metallic paintwork there is also a vinyl roof which appears to be in good order. With only 65,582 recorded miles displayed, the interior presents well in Black leatherette and all appears to be good and original in appearance. It is offered with a V5C document.
