Toyota's upcoming MR-2 will be a high-performance mid-engine sports car

It will likely be considerably cheaper than the Porsche 718 which currently starts at $72,800

Initial reports that Toyota will co-develop the MR-2 with Suzuki and Daihatsu turned out to be false

Instead, the three car companies will cooperate to make a Mazda MX-5 competitor. Each marque will feature distinctive styling and name

Another rumor suggested that the 2026 Toyota MR-2 would share an engine with the GR Corolla which was also false

However, Toyota developed 2 new engines that will be widely featured in future models

One of them is a 2.0-liter, turbocharged, inline-four, which will make up to 400 horsepower

The MR-2 and Celica will share this new engine, where it will make the full 400 horsepower and 405 pound-feet

This puts the 2026 Toyota MR-2 in the same performance segment as the Porsche 718 GTS 4.0 and GT4

Rumor has it, the new MR-2 could be manual-only

Other likely transmission options are the 8-speed automatic or a new 7-speed DCT that would be available on the Supra GRMN

The design of Toyota FT Se Concept will still serve as the inspiration for the MR-2 styling

We'll have to wait and watch if Toyota's upcoming mid-engine sports car can get a slice of the 718 market. Watch this space.

Since 2021, the Porsche CayenneTurbo GT is the fastest SUV around the "Ring"

Porsche managed the record with the non-hybrid Cayenne Turbo GT, which has a better power-to-weight ratio than even the 2024 Turbo GT E Hybrid

For most markets, the range-topping Cayenne Turbo GT now comes, exclusively as a PHEV

However, this Mexico export comes from factory, without most of the emissions equipment fitted for other markets

No particulate filter (OPF) means 14 extra horsepower for this Cayenne Turbo GT

The Cayenne Turbo GT cocoons you in luxury, at speeds of over 186 mph

Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires that are specially designed for the Cayenne Turbo GT

10-piston calipers with 420 mm discs at the front and 4-piston calipers with 365 mm discs at the rear provide ample stopping power

Out on track, the big SUV has no trouble keeping up with dedicated sports cars like the 718 GT4 in front of it

The Cayenne's lateral acceleration of 1.07 G is also the best in the SUV class and surpasses more than a few sports cars

The media drive reviews of the 992.2 Porsche 911 are now out

YouTuber Jack from Savagegeese was in Estoril, Spain to test out the new model

Jack caught up with Porsche engineer Clen, to get his insights on the engineering behind the new T-Hybrid system,

Porsche collaborated with their Motorsport team for the T-hybrid system

The system has some fundamental differences as compared to Porsche's E-Hybrid system

The 992.2 GTS comes with an all-new 3.6 L flat-6 engine with one turbocharger

The highlight is the new turbo, that now features an electric motor that eliminates turbo lag

Further to this, there is an additional electric motor that has been integrated into the 8-speed PDK, for boosting and recuperating power

The T-hybrid system is supplemented by a lightweight 400V high voltage, 1.9 kWh battery pack

The system recuperates electric and thermal energy, converting it into power and feeding it back to the electric motor

The redesigned engine facilitates powering the PDCC system, improving responsiveness and overall performance.

Despite an additional 103 pounds due to the hybrid system, Porsche was able to keep the curb weight under 3,500 pounds

The 992.2 achieved an 8.7-second performance gain around Nürburgring, over the outgoing model
