Now this is a bit of a tease isn't it? Long story short – Toyota's got a build for the upcoming SEMA trade show, and they've got Evasive Motorsports to make them an all-wheel drive GR86. Of course they've just said it's an homage to the brand's rally heritage, but you and I both know there's no smoke without fire... Anyway, Larry Chen's latest video takes us behind the scenes of what is, on paper, technically a reborn Celica. Officially though, it isn't, but with rumours spinning harder than the

Fuelled by recent rumours about the rebirth of the Toyota Celica, BestCarWeb of Japan has released rendered images of what the rebirth Toyota Celica could look like. As a spot of context for the rumours, WRC legend Jari-Matti Latvala entertained the crowd with a demonstration run in a classic Celica GT-Four ST165 during the Shinsiro Rally 2023 in Japan, including a taxi ride for Chairman Akio Toyoda, who is also a skilled rally driver known as Morizo.

That's Akio Toyoda's indelible 14-year legacy. From the birds-eye view his new Chairman post affords, he'll see a Toyota he made cool again, rising tall from the multi-million-unit recall

It took Toyota (and Subaru) nearly ten years between the launch of the first-generation 86/BRZ and its successor but according to rumours from Japanese media, the third generation could be launched much sooner. How soon is that? Well, sources told Best Car Web that Toyota is aiming for the next-gen GR86 to be launched as early as 2025. If Toyota can achieve that goal, it would make the current GR86 have the shortest lifecycle thus far. One of the reasons for the probable short model life might b

Toyota has been quite busy these few months coming off the launch of the Corolla Cross, the refreshed Hilux, and the Yaris Cross. There seems to be nothing stopping the Japanese giant and the world’s largest automotive company. According to Indonesia’s Autonetmagz, Toyota has filed a trademark for a brand-new model name called the BZ. The trademark has been filed through the US Patent Office on 22 May 2020. What does this mean? The BZ name isn’t new to Toyota though. It was used in a few variant

In the spirit of Kaizen, or continous improvement, Lexus has just given its flagship LC Coupe an update. Changes are relatively minor and the exterior is largely untouched. One of the changes highlighted is the reduced unsprung weight by around 10 kg. This is achieved through the use of aluminium lower arms, light anti-roll bars, and new material for the coil springs. The 21-inch forged alloy wheels are also lighter than before. On top of making the suspension parts lighter, it has also been cal
