Toyota FT-HS Hybrid is the Supra 2009
I’m not sure what this means for the maybe-maybe not release of the Toyota Supra 2008, but many auto sites are reporting that the Toyota FT-HS Hybrid Concept Car shown at the 2007 Detroit Auto Show will become reality, and be released as Toyota’s official 2009 Supra, although it might get a new name very soon.
More from Top Speed:
The Toyota FT-HS Hybrid concept car shown at the 2007 Detroit Auto Show will, in fact, be the next Supra – though the Supra name may not be the one ultimately selected for the car. It will, however, retain the hybrid power of the concept car, though precisely what type of hybrid is still to be finalized. There are several types of hybrids, differing in the extent to which they use electric power to actually turn the wheels at all times. The concept car put 400 hp to the ground through the rear wheels and used a hybrid set-up in conjunction with a V-6 engine.
