Toyota Volta
Links 04/27/2004 |
Italian design.
Environmentally sound gas/electric hybrid.
408 horsepower.
0-62mph in 4.03 seconds, top speed of 155mph.
Carbon-fibre chassis.
Racing suspension.
31.7 miles per gallon.
And it’s only a show prototype, not likely to be built.
Such a shame.

While this beauty may never see production, the rumor mill has it that this may be a hint of what the Supra may look like when it returns … mind you, only a rumor…
What really gets me is that this cool car shows what is possible right now - no if’s, and’s or but’s - it can be done - but won’t be done! Why? I want one! Of course I’d never be able to afford one…..
