FT86's reaction, fake news... someone just made a powerpoint.

oh really?

hybrid Sienna

hybrid Venza

The Sienna and Venza are higher production vehicles than the 86. Both were already nearly completed and getting ready for production. That compared to a lower production vehicle that Toyota and Subaru have a joint partnership on aren't really the same thing.

This was all also pre covid era, which - as you know - is the great human species killer of our time. I'm hard pressed to believe that the next gen car isn't (at the very east) postponed given the huge shift in the world economy over the last 4-6 months.
