Speculation suggests that a new Toyota MR2 could debut in 2026 with a 1.6-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine from the GR Corolla, producing 300 hp and weighing around 2,900 lbs. Toyota is reportedly considering both pure electric and combustion-powered versions, with the latter maintaining the mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. The car is expected to measure approximately 4,400 mm in length, 1,850 mm in width, and weigh around 1,300 kg, offering both manual and automatic transmission options.
