This new combined version of Subaru and Toyota project was announced by the Toyota CEO Katsuaki Watanabe at a Tokyo press conference in April 2008. There were rumors and criticism about Toyota which has not made any interesting cars for its customers after the drop of 2005 Celica and the mid engine 2005 MR2 Spyder convertible.

The latest reports that the car has been delayed to 2013 are false, said a Toyota representative at a media event in Japan for the company’s tuning arm, G (short of Gazoo). According to 7Tune, Dr. Shigeyuki Hori, Project General Manager for the automaker’s Sports Vehicle Management division and Kazuo Okino, a group manager, say that the reports about delays are grossly exaggerated.
The Toyota representatives said that the car is 50 percent complete.
Toyota and Subaru’s jointly planned FT-86 sports coupe has drawn a lot of attention from onlookers around the world, with more negative attention than Toyota had originally hoped for. Some critics are citing the design language as being slightly awkward, and not as aggressive as fans had hoped. Subaru has yet to even unveil a concrete indication of what design it will be unveiling, and now Toyota is reportedly going back to the drawing board completely for a totally fresh design.
Toyota first officially took the wraps off its Tokyo-bound FT-86 Concept in October 2009, but our spy photographers recently nabbed the first spy shots of the two-door at Germany’s Nurburgring. Clearly in the mule phase, the production version of the car is little more than a cobbled together unit at this point. With the latest speculation, however, the mule may show little of what sheet metal may actually come to market somewhere between 2011 and 2013.
Dark, sinister, aggressive and powerful. Four terms that are seldom used when describing a modern-day Toyota, but appears all set to change as the Japanese automotive giant gears up for a new model arrival, and the likelihood of the 'second coming' of a sporty coupe classic.
Due to arrive in Australia during the second half of 2012, the next generation 'Celica' is set to deliver Toyota a sports car for the masses, with the potential to deliver a massive image boost for the automaker.
Several details have already been confirmed by Toyota, including the option of either a short-throw six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission with optional steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
The new sports car will be based on a unique front-engine/rear-wheel drive platform that Toyota says will ensure "the best possible power-to-weight ratio". A low centre of gravity, light kerb weight and compact dimensions should also endow the car with above average handling characteristics.
Toyota's FT-86 II Concept -- a preview of the production car that may be badged Celica -- will be on display at the 2011 Australian International Motor Show, and is certain to be a crowd pleaser for numerous reasons, least of which its ahtletic, sharp-edged styling.
On display for the first time in Australia, the FT-86 II Concept is one of Toyota's most aggressive designs to date, and although the production version is likely to be less dramatic in appearance, Toyota says the concept provides "vital clues" to the production car's design.
Spy photos of the born again Toyota Celica snapped earlier this year confirmed that the vehicle's sporty silhouette will remain intact.
While specific power outputs are not yet known, the naturally aspirated models are rumoured to generate around 150kW. A turbocharged version of the 2.0-litre four-cylinder boxer engine has not been confirmed, but could be another possibility.
As such, the vehicle is expected to be a rival for vehicles such as the Mazda RX-8 rather than the more powerful Nissan 370Z.
The rear-wheel drive sports car will be unique in that it will be the first vehicle from Toyota to make use of Subaru's four-cylinder boxer, and will incorporate "Toyota's D-4S technology" which stands for direct injection combined with port injection.
"The 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated engine brings together the technical know-how and enthusiasm for sports cars of both Subaru and Toyota," reads the official press statement.
The concept's rear-wheel drive layout also harks back to Toyota's giddy super sportscar period of the 1990s when vehicles like the twin turbo rear-wheel Supra ruled the roost.
Toyota appears to be very serious about its return to the sports car market, also stating that, "The show car was created as part of Toyota's reborn passion for sports-car driving and the intrinsic fun of motoring".
"The concept makes it clear that Toyota's new compact sports car will have the style, performance and handling demanded by those who regard driving as fun rather than a necessity."
The 086A is expected to maintain the wheelbase of the Legacy/Liberty platform upon which it will be built, giving it a wheelbase of 2750mm (using the 2010 Subaru Legacy platform). Best Car claims the total outside dimensions are 4200mm long, 1750mm wide and 1300mm tall.
Using the Legacy platform will ensure that the ‘Toyobaru’ is a proper 2+2 coupe, although Best Car claims the rear seats have been described as being for “emergency use only.” (“Quick, it’s an emergency, squeeze your battered body into my Toyobaru’s cramped back seat and let’s go!”)
Power is still expected to come courtesy of a direct-injection version of Subaru’s naturally-aspirated 2.0 litre EJ20 engine, developing around 148kW (198hp) and 200Nm of torque.
Toyota and Subaru have restarted development of their compact-sport-coupe project. The companies suspended efforts in early 2009 due to economic conditions. Based on the latest news, it seems the production version of the FT-86 will be sold in America as the Scion FR-S. Scion displayed a concept of the FR-S at the New York Auto Show in April 2011. Please click here for Consumer Guide's Sneak Peek of the 2013 Scion FR-S. Subaru has just announced its version of the car will be called BRZ. Please check back for further updates.
Mighty Toyota's once-popular sporty coupe is set to be reborn as a low-dollar, high-mpg Mazda MX5- and Hyundai Genesis Coupe-fighter with rear-wheel drive and a Subaru powertrain. Goliath teaming up with David? Yup, and it could be just the start of a beautiful friendship.
Journalists all over are buzzing about the announced "low-cost sports car" being hatched by Subaru and Toyota. Each brand will sell its own version with specific styling on a shared rear-wheel-drive platform with a Subaru-sourced horizontally opposed 4-cylinder engine. Subaru has already confirmed U.S. sale for its entry, name to be determined. In an interview with Digg.com conducted in February 2010, Toyota USA President and CEO Jim Lentz confirmed the company's plans to produce an "affordable" sports car for the U.S. market. Lentz cited the Toyota FT-86 Concept shown at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show as "a joint-venture product between Subaru and Toyota...(that) will be coming to market." Both models are rumored to come in at under $20,000 and likely closer to $17,000 if the dollar/yen exchange rate doesn't go completely haywire.
The project was announced at a Tokyo press conference in April 2008. Toyota CEO Katsuaki Watanabe provided only broad-brush outlines, but pointedly noted, "We haven't had a sports car for a long time. This is a long-awaited-for model." That's no doubt code for the general rap that Toyota hasn't made "interesting" cars since it dropped the Celica and the mid-engine MR2 Spyder convertible back in 2005. The criticism evidently stung, as Toyota reportedly set up a study group to generate ideas for upping the brand's cool factor with the all-important youth market. That's one reason for this new compact sport coupe, which aims to deliver slick looks, tight handling, and great mpg, all at a budget-friendly price.
A second motivation for Toyota is furthering ties with Subaru parent Fuji Heavy Industries. Toyota was quick to replace General Motors as a Fuji "alliance partner" back in 2005, taking an 8.7 percent stake soon after the American company bailed. With that, Subaru began building midsize Toyota Camry sedans at its under-utilized plant in Lafayette, Indiana, a mutually successful endeavor that reportedly led to the joint-venture sports car. Toyota now plans to up its stake in Fuji to 16.5 percent (for a reported $311 million)--partly, some analysts believe, for access to Subaru's signature expertise in horizontally opposed engines and all-wheel drive. In exchange, Subaru is getting rebadged versions of Toyota "K-class" minicars for a lucrative segment in the Japanese market where the smaller automaker has been a weak player.
So much for background. As for the car itself, the 2012 Toyota Celica--and its Subaru sister--is rumored to be a sloped-roof hatchback with a slightly larger footprint than the late front-drive Acura RSX coupe (known elsewhere as the Honda Integra). Our dimensions reflect numbers reported on Toyota's Japan media site. If the FT-86 Concept is to be believed, the new Toybaru--or Subayota--will be a four-passenger package with a cozy rear seat and adult-size room in front.
