The 1981–1982 models came with standard five-speed manual transmissions and tachometers. The 3-door KP61 was the only Starlet ever sold in the US, where it was available from the 1981 through the 1984 model years. Their scarcity has led to them becoming a relatively valuable collector's car. Many Starlets have also been converted into track and rally cars on account of their RWD layout.

A second facelift followed in 1983 to incorporate a slant nose front end and a new lower hatch opening.Ĭlean 60 series Starlets are becoming more difficult to acquire, largely to their age and susceptibility to rust. In 1980, the Starlet was facelifted to include square headlights. Other ratios also existed for various Japanese market models. Differential ratios depend on the trim model and market for each car, with 3.909:1 being common for vehicles with a 2K engine, 4.3:1 for European van models, 3.727:1 for Japanese van models, 3.417:1 for vehicles fitted with an automatic transmission, and 3.583:1 for general applications with a 4K engine. Vehicles fitted with a 2K engine received a smaller differential (X code, 5.6 in, 142 mm) than vehicles fitted with a 4K engine (U code, 6 in, 152 mm). Japanese and New Zealand market models have 203 mm front brake rotors, as opposed to many other markets receiving Starlets with 228 mm front brake rotors. Japanese market models did not generally have self-retracting rear seatbelts.

Sprint models include the same alloy wheels as featured on early AE86 Corollas as well. The external trimming on Sprint models is also clipped into place, as opposed to being glued on as in other models. Sprint models included the upgraded Toyota Sports Handling Suspension, a tachometer, five-speed (K50) transmission, 1,290cc (4K) engine and a sportier interior compared to other models. Si models have a fuel injected 4K-E engine. Trim levels were Standard, De Luxe (also known as DX in some markets), GL, XL, S, Si, Sprint, SE and Lisse. Suspension on 60 series Starlets is in the form of MacPherson front struts accompanied by four link rear suspension with coil springs for hatchback models and leaf spring suspension on van models. The 60 series Starlet was the first Toyota passenger car to utilize rack-and-pinion steering. In Japan, all Starlets except the Van were only available with the larger 1.3 litre engine the Van model retained the smaller, 1.2 litre, 3K-HJ type. The KP62 was first seen in Sweden in July 1978, where it was equipped with the de-smogged 3K-C engine to meet that country's particular emissions requirements. The Van arrived in October 1978, at the same time that the 1.2-litre KP62 became available in most export markets. Three- and five-door hatchbacks were offered in export markets, although a longer five-door wagon variant (also known as the "Van" in the Japanese market) was sold in Japan and certain Asian and European markets. It was particularly well received in Europe, including the United Kingdom, at which time superminis were soaring in popularity. The 60 series, introduced in February 1978, was better known than its predecessor due to being the first Starlet extensively sold outside Japan. The "Starlet" nameplate was revived in 2020 for a rebadged Suzuki Baleno hatchback, sold exclusively in some African countries (and in India under the "Glanza" name). However, Toyota effectively vacated the European city car market until the Aygo was launched in 2005.

In 1999, the Starlet was replaced by the Vitz-sold as the Echo or Yaris in international markets-and the bB mini MPV, which was later sold as the Scion xB in Canada and the United States and as the Daihatsu Materia in Europe. The Starlet was briefly exported to North America from 1981 to 1984. Another variant was the Toyota Sera, a sport compact made in the early 1990s and officially sold only in Japan the Sera had a unique two-door coupé body and butterfly doors but shared the Starlet's chassis and mechanicals. It is the first subcompact car from a Japanese automaker to offer a high-performance variant. In Japan, it was exclusive to Toyota Corolla Store dealers. The first generation Starlet was sold as the Publica Starlet in some markets.
