As we all know, Toyota and Subaru have been developing a new RWD coupe together, the "toyobaru" has fans and enthusiasts have taken to calling it. Both versions of the car are known to feature a flat-4, courtesy of Subaru, but overall, both companies are providing and sharing the technology involved in this car. Toyota has provided plenty of renders to show off their version of the Toyobaru coupe, first dubbed the FT-86 concept, now called the FR-S. The name is still unknown in Subaru guise, and no official renderings have come out, but this illustration shows what the Subaru RWD coupe could and should look like when it arrives here.
Expect a retuned version of Subaru's current flat-4 2.0 liter with 200 HP, and a variation of the Subaru WRX's turbocharged flat-4 with 260 HP, according to Autocar. The car will be built off of a modified Subaru Legacy platform with an Impreza's rear suspension. And surprise surprise, considering this is Subaru: no AWD is planned.
Expect a cost in the UK of 25,000 to 30,000 pounds sterling.
