The Toyota-Subaru Super Car Concept which was to be based off the Toyota FT-HS concept is the latest victim of the economic crisis hitting our automotive industry. The supposed FR Sports Car was going to have a 2.0 liter engine with design to optimize weight distribution.
Toyota, which has held a small stake in Subaru since 2005, was working on the FR, a co-designed 2+2 compact sport vehicle would have had an optimized weight distribution, and was speculated to have as much as 220 horse power from Subaru’s 2.0-liter four-cylinder. The project was to come to market in 2011 and may cost less than $20,000.
