Till this day, the ultimate sports car for Toyota enthusiasts remains the Toyota Supra. The beloved Toyota sports car ended production in 2002, and ever since there has been continuos speculation of a successor.
When the Toyota FT-HS Hybrid Concept made its debut back in 2007, the possibility of a Supra successor started to look bright; however, Toyota later said that sports car just have a lesser priority on the company�s to-do list.
Well, according to the insiders at 7Tune, work has secretly continued on a Supra successor and with enthusiast Akio Toyoda now taking over as CEO, we�re probably closer than ever to a new Toyota Supra.

Internally known as the 086A, a prototype is expected to be completed by the end of 2009. The car has moved out of design phase and sources say that Toyota is looking at a 3.5L V6 engine that will be mated to the current Toyota Crown hybrid system delivering a total of 400-hp to the rear-wheel-drive sports car.
The new Supra will mate a 3.6 V6 to a Hybrid system based on the current Camry. The gas/hybrid combo platter should deliver an estimated 400hp to the rear wheels; all the while achieving excellent fuel economy and emitting super low emissions. 

It�s seems quite possible that the new Hybrid Supra will usher in a new type of sports car; one that is fast , one that is efficient, one that is environmentally friendly, and one that will change the notion of �what a traditional sports car should be� forever. We eagerly look forward to its arrival.
