It is rumored(from Chinese text newspapers) that its gonna be a hybrid powered turbo + 4WD... it's a 2000c.c engine.....also it's gonna pump out approx 300ps and 40kgm/2,000rpm...

...also says the next Prius is gonna be turbo.

I got this from a toyota board....

________

I have no idea how credible all this is(prolly not very), but im posting it anyway.....

Looks like its got the 350z roofline and kinda looks like an Accord from the side.. but very similar to the current generation

What do you guys think?

 

if that's the case, it sounds like the Celica would be moving up to where the old Supra used to sit.......

 

supra was 3.0 i6 rwd
this 'rumored/news someone might have made up' new celica sounds more like the return of the Celica All-Trac. 2.0L turbo awd

also, turbo prius? :rofl:

 

:rofl:

 

if any of that is true, i will seriously punch myself in the stomach. sounds like the biggest load of crap ive heard for a while.

 

:werd:

 

It's a sweet looking car... Any pics of the rear?

 

I think that pic is just a photoshop of someone's dream celica. It has been around the other forums for awhile now.

 

The credibility of this rumor is extremely low.

 

Agreed. Historically, it's been hard to pick up what the Japanese companies have been developing until 6-months before a product release date. Until then, we're clueless.

The turbocharged Prius the most retarded thing I've ever heard. copperhead must have posted this.
