Toyota GRMN Sports Hybrid Concept II is Super-a: 2012 Tokyo Auto Salon

Ever wonder what the next Toyota Supra will be like? So do we.

Could it be some sort of high-tech hybrid, using all-wheel drive with an electric motor for the front wheels and a gasoline or gas-electric hybrid drive for the rear? We suppose so.

You know something like the GRMN Sports Hybrid Concept II (above)? Um, well, yea. But let's not start any rumors. OK?

First unveiled at the Nurburgring 24 Hour race in the summer, Toyota has recently displayed the hybrid sports car concept at both the Tokyo Motor Show and now at the Tokyo Auto Salon, hinting just how serious they are about keeping it in the public's eye.

When it was first shown Toyota said it, "has long conducted active research on applying hybrid technologies to racing and sports cars" and said the GRMN vehicle is, "the next step in the evolution of these efforts."

Just exactly when the next next step will be is anyone's guess. Whatever Toyota decides to build and whatever they call it, knowing the company's hybrid expertise and newfound passion for performance cars, we bet it'll be supra. er super.
