"Cresta" is the Spanish word for "crest," the symbolic design of a coat of arms.
Mechanism-wise, the fifth-generation Cresta presented relatively few changes from its immediate predecessor. All gasoline engines adopted an inline 6-cylinder DOHC 24-valve configuration, with variations including 2-liter 140 PS, 2.5-liter 180 PS, 2.5-liter turbocharged 280 PS, and 3-liter 220 PS units. The 2.5- and 3-liter units adopted the VVT-i technology to improve the torque in the practical revolution range and to boost fuel economy. The previous twin-turbo engine was replaced with a single turbo version, while a 2.4-liter 97 PS turbo diesel engine was also made available. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) and dual front airbags were standard equipped on all models as passive safety measures.
Production of the Cresta was discontinued in 2001, along with the Chaser.
