The Crown isn't a small car though, but TNGA should be scalable....I mean that was the whole purpose of TNGA wasn't it? Streamline the shared components and make them scalable to fit the market segments? Its the only thing that really makes sense if Toyota was to use TNGA for a next gen 86.

And if they do we are back to the age old question of when does an 86 stop being an 86 in anything but name only? If they start changing platforms, whole engine types, or other major components then the car as it is now just ceases to exist no matter what badge they throw on it.
