"Last week, we told you that the upcoming Toyota Hybrid-R concept, set to debut at Frankfurt, was probably going to be based on the Yaris. Unfortunately, we were right. That&amp;#039;s the bad news. No, it&amp;#039;s not the Supra revival you wanted, or the FR-S-based coupe that seemed to make sense. The reality is, Toyota took what is generally accepted to be a soulless, unsatisfying econobox and stuffed a Toyota Motorsport GmbH turbo 1.6-liter four under the stubby hood and packed in a capacitor-based energy-recovery system. The grand total should be around 400 hp, and I have no doubt that Toyota will make it handle pretty well. I&amp;#039;m a little lost as to what the point is, frankly. A hatchback with a full-race drivetrain doesn&amp;#039;t really hint at anything with production possibilities. The Yaris isn&amp;#039;t a strong nameplate among enthusiasts, and one interesting concept isn&amp;#039;t going to change that. We&amp;#039;ll have to wait until Frankfurt to get to the bottom of what this Hybrid-R concept is supposed to signal to consumers, but that&amp;#039;s little consolation for the Supra faithful.
