Toyota and Gazoo Racing have unveiled the GR Super Sport Concept at the 2018 Tokyo Auto Salon.

According to the Japanese automaker, the GR Super Sport Concept is 'a concept car that incorporates hybrid technology honed through participation in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).' The concept features mostly the same main parts found on the TS050 Hybrid race car that competes in the WEC, including the V6 twin-turbo hybrid powertrain. While this isn’t a realistic depiction of a future production car – it lacks headlights and traditional doors after all – Toyota says it hopes the GR Super Sport Concept offers a taste of what the automaker aims to achieve with its next-generation sports cars.

Yeah this thing is cool. Kinda surprised Toyota is getting back into the super\hyper car game so soon after the LFA. Its debatable that that project paid off for them, though it certainly has had a Halo effect on the brand, especailly in Toyota's dark ages where they had zero sports cars on the market.

So its cool, but even more unapproachable then the LFA.

Needless to say I am patiently waiting for the wraps to be pulled off the new Supra. WHICH BTW, was the real news for me from this car show, the Gazoo guys leaked that the new supra will FINALLY make its debut at the Geneva car show on March 6th!!!!
