Obviously Toyota is doing this purely for marketing purposes, to be able to claim a 'more powerful' engine. Seems silly, there's no way that you could feel a difference of 4 hp with the same torque in the seat of your pants. Buy hey, 'more powah' is always better.
Interesting that there seems to be a bit of rivalry between Toyota and Subaru on the second gen car. |
there's been a number of other motors and shared platforms over the years.
has there ever been 2 different brands that release the same car with different engine specs? i don't believe so. i believe this to be a conversion difference. like when you translate english to another language, and then back to english.
