I just want a fast dumb awd electric sports hatch. Think WRX but electric.

No self driving

No internet connection

No cameras

No screens

Nothing to update

Analog dials

Simple twist knobs for air con

Is that really too hard?

I think backup cams are required by law for safety, but other than that and a thing to play music and maps, yeah, I'm game.

I'll concede a reversing camera and a sound system, but for everything else there's your phone. Maybe include bluetooth in the car but that's it tech wise. I feel like I'm already on a slippery slope.

I'll believe it when I see it.

And if I see it, I'll believe it when meaningful volume is there.

This just screams marketing shenanigans that ultimately results in them producing like 25/year just to say they did it.

Part of me thinks Toyota is still stuck in their idea that their hydrogen vehicles will take off (somehow).

I don’t really want a Toyota that’s made in China.

Looks cool, but it would look way better as a two door. Everything is a boring crossover, getting more tired than COD and the MCU in 10 years.
