First Look: Toyota FT-HS Hybrid Sports Concept

Toyota unveils its stunning FT-HS Hybrid Sports Concept, which some claim to be the Supra's next-generation successor. This "2-door sports coupe will put out 400hp using the same incredible engine as the Lexus GS450h." Lots of pictures after the jump.
..with its light weight, the FT-HS should be able to hit the 60mph mark in just 4 seconds, undercutting the GS450h by over a second. The FT-HS has a perfect 50/50 weight distribution and is similar in size to the Lexus SC430 convertible. Toyota claims that such a car could hit the market for between $30-40K, but we’re highly skeptical of that figure

The solo space of Toyota FT-HS Hybrid is a concept of centering the vehicle around the driver. It does give the driver a sense of control beyond a typically production car. This vehicle seems to really have a quite a flare and I believe will win in the “Best Featured Car at Detroit Auto Show Poll” Best Featured Poll: http://todayspolls.googlepages.com/d_auto_show
