Toyota Supra

Supra will be the next A hybrid?

Toyota Supra

Yes, you read right. Toyota Supra We already knew that the Lexus LF-A would represent the basis for the next Toyota sports cap, but unaware that would have the same system of the hybrid Lexus GS 450h, although prepared to pay 340 hp and the 0 to 100 in less than 5 seconds. Toyota Supra Coupled with a seven-speed sequential transmission, the driver should provide a good balance between rapid acceleration and some reasonable consumption (estimated at about 10.6 liters per 100 km/10, 6 km per liter). Apparently this will be the only engine offered by Toyota, which reserves the Toyota Supra V10 petrol and 500 hp for its most luxurious Lexus LF-A.

Little more is known, except that its price will be located in the same range as that of the Nissan GT-R, its most direct rival. Toyota Supra Already you we will continue as more details come out.

Toyota FT-HS Concept - We have Supra?

Toyota Supra

At 10 the night of Jan. 7, Toyota will pull the veil that covers her new design studio prepared for the Hall of Detroit. Then, the Toyota Supra FT-HS Concept supposedly we fail to see the features of future models sporting the Japanese manufacturer, but until then, we have a handful of renders to go by mouth.

The HSC will develop more than Toyota Supra 400 horses thanks to an engine of 3.5 liter DOHC V6 coupled with a 650 V electric water-cooled. While the weight of the conceptual model has not been indicated, the extensive use of carbon fiber and aluminum should serve to ensure an acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h close to 4.5 seconds.

This prototype has been profiled by the study that Toyota is in Newport Beach, California, where it drew its 43 cm long, 186 cm wide and 129 high. Toyota Supra Among the items are curious its engine, partially uncovered, and a folding roof that slides back covering the rear seats.

Although few are no longer considered the Toyota Supra successor Toyota Supra, we believe that it costs a little extreme, but the fact is that we hear rumors of a hybrid Toyota Supra saves time and makes a certain resemblance to the Lexus LF - A. Considering also that Toyota expects a price close to Toyota Supra 30,000 dollars (22,858 euros at the exchange), the Toyota Supra FT-HS could well fill that hole that has been void in the catalog for the brand so long.

Toyota drops to the FT-HS could serve as inspiration for the Supra

Toyota Supra

Normally we would have no reason to talk about a prototype Toyota Supra that we have seen previously, hence the Australian debut of the Toyota Supra is not news. What it is, however, is that an executive of Toyota Australia has dropped to the next Toyota Supra saved a certain resemblance to this sports hybrid concept. Peter Evans, manager of product planning for the brand, said that "in order to fully appreciate the Toyota Supra FT-HS, you have to think about a Prius doping. Alternatively, it might be an idea for a future Toyota Supra."

If this had happened in the exhibition and in the midst of a swarm of journalists statements could be attributed to a Freudian slip, but we have the appointment of a press release from Toyota Australia regarding the presentation of the model. Toyota Supra This means that before arriving in our hands has gone through the eyes of a thousand and one charge of public relations whose job is to veto any information that might get in trouble for the company. In other words, this is not a simple way of the tongue, but a statement whose purpose was to reach the masses. Mission accomplished, we suppose.

One year after showing at the Sydney Toyota Aurion Sports Concept, Toyota Australia has officially launched its long-awaited TRD Toyota Aurion. While the Japanese have offered Toyota Aurion TRD versions of its vehicles in multiple markets, the Toyota Aurion is the first vehicle sold as a Toyota Aurion TRD without more, creating a new brand under the umbrella of Toyota.

The 0 to 100 is carried out in 6.1 seconds, and drivers may get more daring to 250 km / h on the last road without limit of the country, which as you can imagine is limited electronically. None of these data are particularly explosive in comparison with other models minority in Australia, but Toyota Aurion TRD says that searches for the perfect balance between power and control rather than explosive benefits. The combined cycle consumption is 10.9 liters per 100 km to the (9.1 km / l).

Of course, all the TRD Toyota Aurion get a good session of makeup, something that is obvious just by looking at the picture above.

The 3500S is the most affordable, positioned such that slips below the threshold for being charged with tax luxury goods. Leather seats and red velvet are its main feature.

Hall Sydney: Toyota Aurion Sports Concept

Toyota does not cease in the conquest of the Australian market, and although it remains the leader in sales, know that it is an outcome that could change if it neglects a complete and diverse range of quality products.

Therefore, the new Toyota Aurion has left a brother, but in concept, which brings forward what will be the most sporty version of the family. It is presented in the Hall of the Sydney Motor Show, and as usual, will stay in Australia, with no immediate prospect for export.

Toyota Aurion It has an aesthetic retouched, more aggressive and fierce, alloy wheels, 20 inches and side skirts. In the area later, a spoiler finishes off the body, very daring in any case, something very much like those for school.

For now know the mechanics of this model, but it should equip a V8 or at least an evolution of the traditional model Toyota Aurion 3.5i V6, as the competition-and stares at the Holden WM-417 hp and offers V8 engine. Almost nothing. What is palpable is the attractive design, elegant and spectacular at the same time.

Next to the Toyota Aurion final, presented the Toyota Aurion FPC (Future Performance Concept), a model Toyota Aurion that distills sportsmanship poured. If the public likes it is very possible that in the first half of 2007 reaches the market.

The engine of the Toyota Aurion FPC will be a Toyota Aurion 3.5i V6 turbocharged, Australian development as well, the more we know very little. It is assumed that these days are going to expand the information on these two models.
