Toyota has a lot going on at the Melbourne Motor Show this week. In addition to the Aussie debut of the new Corolla (right), a new Super 2000-spec rally car is also on hand, resplendent in red-and-white TRD livery. 2006 Australian Rally Champion Simon Evans and rally team leader Neal Bates were on hand for the presentation of the new racer, which is powered by a 2.0 liter, 255 horsepower normally-aspirated four-cylinder that runs up to the class-mandated 8,500 rpm maximum. It weighs in at around 2500 pounds.
As is the case with other Super 2000 rally cars, electronic aids are prohibited and not present on this new Corolla, which will see its first racing action in June.

255 HP@8500 rpm from only a 2.0 Liter naturally aspirated engine. That is like 128 HP/Liter of displacement.
Pretty amazing to see Toyota is still churning out more super high revving cars .
