Toyota has been making a name for itself in the performance car world with models like the GR Yaris, GR Corolla, 86, and Supra, and now there are hints that an iconic nameplate may be making a comeback. The Chief Technology Officer confirmed the return of the Celica last November, and there are even talks of possibly bringing back the MR2. In Australia, a Toyota executive reassured enthusiasts that fun cars with internal combustion engines and manual transmissions aren’t going anywhere. Despite the shift towards electrification, Toyota understands the appeal of the sound and feel of ICE engines. Toyota aims to make Gazoo Racing the go-to destination for performance car fans, exploring synthetic fuels for combustion engines and focusing on electric sports cars like the FT-SE concept. The Yaris M concept revealed at the Tokyo Auto Salon features a new 2.0-liter engine and hints at Toyota’s future plans. While the fate of the Supra remains uncertain after the A90, Toyota’s commitment to performance cars is evident. Speculations arise about a new sporty model that may house a turbocharged four-cylinder engine capable of producing over 400 horsepower. Toyota’s collaboration with Mazda to revive the RX has been dismissed as mere rumors, as the focus remains on developing high-performance models like the rumored LFR supercar with a twin-turbo V-8 engine. Gazoo Racing’s philosophy revolves around the essence of internal combustion engines, promising to deliver a complete sensory experience for enthusiasts.
