Scion Fuse, teaser pic

[JoeyW]

i beleive its the scion coupe that will debute in new york auto show

[enc0re]

Here is what went throught my head ckecking out the teaser pic top-to-bottom:

1) Is that a roof rack?

2) Look at those mirrors.

3) A hood scoop? Wait a second...

4) A front mounted intercooler ?

is that a 3s-gte in there? Wait... 3s-gte has always meant 4wd with center LSD!

It's a bloody AllTrac!!!

[MaxHealy]

Either the car is really narrow or that logo isn't centered...

[el_pavelsd]

that car is f*cking HOT, can't wait to see the real thing.................

[Ruffrydasean]

yea, that is sexy

[BenG]

those are some wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide tires

[pjsammy]

lets hope at least 50% of that makes it to production! I'll give em my deposit tomorrow if that thing really is 3s-gte AllTrac

(not holding my breath, though )

[1500wattCamry]

wow this is something important for scion turbo awd? wow

[wormhole]

maybe, it's the next tc??

[Driver]

It's scion's Audi.

[Camread]

that's not a roof rack, its the sunroof - tilted up.

Unless its diesel , then i doubt that its turbocharged. Toyota has mentioned before that they are leaving the turbos behind. IF its boosted, then its supercharged. BTW, The Toyota Aurion Sportivo is also supercharged.

That mesh grill and fake hood scope are just for looks. In reality, it is a xA or xB replacement. There is no way on earth an engine like 3S GTE that will make it in a Scion while staying true to it's cheap and affordable price agenda. I could maybe maybe believe if it were a Toyota.

p.s. in 2000 Toyota announced that they will not build any new turbocharged engines in the future due to their commitment to the environment and fast technological and automotive engineering advancements to make big power more efficiently from naturally aspirated engines.

What is it? The Internet is already abuzz with talk of the upcoming debut of the Fuse sport coupe at the New York auto show. Right now, rumors are all we have, but supposedly, the Fuse will be set apart by its scissors-style doors, chopped top, and short snout. The concept is said also to have turn signal indicators located on the wheels.

What is new or notable? The Fuse styling is said to portend the design language used on the future Scion models, though this specific vehicle is not expected to see production.


When will it be on sale? Never.
