Toyota Gazoo Racing (GR), the performance division of Toyota, is currently in the process of developing its first fully electric (EV) sports car. A report by Automotive News Europe suggests that Akio Toyoda, the Chairman of Toyota, is engaged in the development efforts. The report highlighted that Toyota GR intends to prove that electric vehicles (EVs) can offer the same thrilling driving experience as fast, combustion engine cars. Akio Toyoda personally tested a prototype of the car and noted t

If you’ve been to Legoland, one of the most appealing attractions is definitely the scaled-down recreation of famous landmarks made entirely of the ubiquitous plastic bricks.

Think of it like the Japanese equivalent of Volkswagen's Worthersee festival. With that, famous Japanese tuning houses turned up in force to display hot versions (see what I did there?) of the all-new Toyobaru twins. Out of t

It seems like the Toyota/Subaru twins might take a different direction come 2021, cites Creative311. This comes after rumours that the 2020 Subaru BRZ has been discontinued. With the launches of the Subaru BR-Z Final Edition and the Toyota 86 Black Limited runout specials in Germany and Japan respectively, it seems that the rumour isn't unfounded. Since both models share a platform, it’s only a matter of the time before the 86 gets discontinued too. So what will the next Toyobaru twin be like? W
