He dismisses a turbocharger: “I think 300-HP with a turbo would be tasteless in this day and age. If we pursue power without regard to fuel consumption, the market won’t accept it. And a turbo would mean the loss of the GT86′s uniqueness.”

A less efficient higher powered 86 would not sell at all where im from..
So in my country, the market would not accept it. But most other markets currently would.
If they only add 50-100kg. Gets fuel efficiency down from 181g CO2 to 100g or lower (EU numbers) that would be impressive. And then adding needed torque and give a nice bump in HP, than it would be quite awesome! And unique!
There is a high probability they will actually make a hybrid. Toyota seem to be aiming on a future line-up where basically all models are hybrids.
Either way, exiting stuff!
