"i've been hearing rumors ... from toyota"
Do you mean to say that Toyota is the one propagating these rumors?
Anyway, Toyota and pretty much all automobile manufacturers have done everything they could do to minimize their cars' unsprung weight to maximize handling ability. An electric motor at each wheel would increase the unsprung weight drammatically, killing a car's handling ability, so I sincerely doubt that Toyota would be considering such a design.
