This just hit the wires, fresh rumors that the Supra will be offered in two flavors when it is available:
- 2.0L turbo 4 cyl from the upcoming Lexus NX 200t (with around 235hp)
- 2.5L turbo V6 hybrid pushing 300kW (~402hp).

But the global financial crisis soon put this project on the back-burner, as car-makers were forced to tighten their belts. Now in 2014, Toyota is back with even raunchier styling and two powertrains.
The entry-level variant is expected to incorporate a turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol-four from the upcoming Lexus NX, while the flagship will employ a 2.5-litre turbo V6 hybrid powertrain generating more than 300kW.
Obviously the new Supra will be rear-wheel drive but it is also strongly rumoured to employ an LFA-style rear transaxle, meaning the new Supra could sell for less than $100,000 when it appears in showrooms as early as 2016.
