I’m with you on that! Every time I had my other H car in the service bay I passed my time in the showroom & I Sat in a TypeR 5 times since they came out... Never gone on a joy ride as between the overdone rear looks & no Mechanical handbrake and a salesperson saying there was too much power for a winter drive my dream of a TypeR slowly evaporated… Winter is manual handbrake heaven and a ABS defeat godsend.

The electric motors at the front axle will add lots of weight anyways, and since it'll be FWD the rear is just along for the ride so I'd support a hatchback configuration for sure.

You jest, but I think it’s very likely this GR Corolla we’re getting will be hybrid. |

All that torque will twist it like a pretzel unless they use the Toyota chassis.

as a side benefit, the new platform will be rear-engined, with a computer controlled 4 wheel steering setup to make for better turn-in response.
