I had heard about that some days ago... I wonder what is the structure like though?

TRD/Technocraft having more say? New offices for engineers form different areas within the company for a new division? How what?

Tadashi Yamashina will head the division apparently (Toyota F1's last team principal)

also involved will be managing officers;
Kenji Suzuki (I know I've heard about this guy before)
&
Kiyotaka Ise (Lexus)

Tell me about it! I haven't owned a car newer than '89 in my entire life.

Interestingly enough, they were all hatchbacks with some sort of roof (no complete hardtops).
