Here's an article about the rumored new generation MR2, which might be one of the reasons of the cancellation:

What is disappointing about the sales? Do any of the clickbaits have pictures of fields full of unsold cars? You have access to Toyota's business plan saying they wanted to sell more but didn't? Do you not think the very high paid people planning the sales numbers can figure out how many to make? Do you think they wanted to sell Corolla numbers of these things? Have you compared the numbers to other cars in class to see if just the Twins are declining? Sales numbers mean nothing. Built but not sold numbers are critical.

You are using a speculative article based on rumour to support your stand on a speculative article based on rumour.

Time will tell.
