New Toyota MR2 At The Geneva Motor Show? Honda S660 To Meet Its Competitor

The Geneva Motor Show is bringing in all kinds of surprises. The latest is from Toyota. There are reports that suggest that the company might be working to bring back the Toyota MR2 on to the roads.

The sports lineup of Toyota has always been impressive. It always had three components. The component that was most visible is the Supra. It slowly evolved along with the car. Supra grew in tandem with the car from mild to aggressive. The second component was the Celica. It was a milder version and more affordable too. The third component that lasted over three distinct generations was the Toyota MR2. It is a mid-engined go-kart.

It was reported that Toyota wanted three sportscars in the lineup. It is a known fact that Supra has a successor. The role played by Celia is graciously continued by the 86. So, it can be safe to assume that the third category will be the Toyota MR2, reported Auto Blog.

What this means is that there will be a sportscar which is lighter and more nimble. It might not deliver as much power as the 86. It can be closely linked to the Honda S660. The Toyota MR2 might be the perfect competitor to the Honda S660, reported Jalopnik.

There are various speculations as to what Toyota's third car will be. It is exciting to expect a car which is lighter and nimble. No specifics regarding the third car were discussed ever. Toyota will have a lot of hurdles to pass before bringing in the small sports car. However, to see the MR2 hit the roads will be a dream come true for many. It does have to clear all the financial hurdles too. The company can go ahead with the plan only if it makes perfect economic sense. Meanwhile, Toyota MR2 fans are thrilled and waiting for official confirmation.
