| Toyota Supra Successor gets the green light
 Toyota Supra Successor Back in the Pipeline - Motor Trend
All-Wheel-Drive, 400-Horsepower Hybrid Expected, could be on showroom floors by late 2015 for less than $60,000. Quote: |
the new sports coupe (it's unlikely to be called Supra) would employ an all-wheel-drive system and generate upwards of 400 horsepower. The car is rumored to feature a mid-engine-mounted, 3.5-liter V-6 hybrid setup mated to a CVT lifted from the new Lexus RX, but tuned for higher performance.

Dissappointed!
Instead of a hybrid motor,why not just stick with the tried,true and legendary 2JZ & Getrag 6 speed.

Same reason the m3 doesn't still use the s14. While one of the most amazing engines ever produced for its time, the new m3 engine is more powerful, reliable and environmentally friendly.

Toyota can surely advance the 2JZ if they wanted to,they have the means to do so.

I like everything about the car except for the CVT. At least give us a dual clutch automatic for a sports car!
But if they actually make this then Toyota is on a roll lately.

I gotta give one thing to Toyota - they know how to build good V6 engines.

The edges and sharp angles you see in the attached illustration at top are how one artist interprets the direction Toyota is believed to be heading with its new sports car.
| Meh, this has been done like fifty times since the spy shots of a "next-gen Supra" turned out to be the LFA. Quote: |
Unlike the rear-drive FT-HS, the new sports coupe (it's unlikely to be called Supra) would employ an all-wheel-drive system and generate upwards of 400 horsepower.
| Hybrid, not RWD, not called a Supra; so yeah, not a Supra. ~400hp is interesting though.

If I can't add a few bolt-ons and have a 1,000HP daily driver fully street legal car, then it's not a real Supra.  | |

| thank god. if this pans out, its gonna need to be ALOT different to be called a "supra successor"
IMO, its gonna need to compete with the GTR, be RWD and alot less ugly then the current drawing. that pic looks more like a newer mr-2
