Toyota S-FR Concept
The Toyota S-FR has made its world premiere at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show. The sports car is conceptualized to be the kind of vehicle that will attract its own cult following.

Toyota seeks to continue its heritage of fun-to-drive lightweight sports car and states that the S-FR is intended to be an entry-level model. The exterior has a rounded look with a long bonnet and wide presence. The stress is laid on a sporty and responsive drive that is based on a body that is incredibly light and compact with measurements of 3,990 mm, 1,695 mm and 1,320 mm in length, width and height respectively. The cabin is claimed to have space for four people with a wheelbase taped at 2,480 mm.

The concept has a front engine, rear-wheel drive configuration that facilitates “real sense of communication”, according to Toyota. The engine has been placed in a front midship location that allows for optimal distribution of weight, this, paired with an independent suspension setup should give the S-FR “outstanding cornering performance.”

The sports car has a 1.5-liter naturally-aspirated petrol engine mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. This unit produces 130 hp and when viewed in light of the car’s overall weight which is just 980 kg, should give rise to sprightly performance.

Though production of the car is reported to be likely, Toyota has not confirmed anything yet.

Toyota is currently showcasing a range of pseudo-crossovers at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show. They include the Toyota Corolla Cross Fielder, Toyota Aqua Cross and the Toyota Sienta Cross.

Toyota Corolla Cross Fielder

The Toyota Corolla Cross Fielder is a spruced up, rugged version of the Toyota Corolla Fielder estate, featuring a new grille, black-plastic bumper and side sill extensions, LED strips on the foglamps, larger 5-spoke alloy rims, and a chrome strip running across the lower side profile. The interior is finished in a dual tone white and black color combination and comes with a leather-wrapped steering wheel, touchscreen infotainment display, contrast stitching and a push-button start/stop.

Toyota Aqua Cross

The Aqua Cross has been facelifted, and now sports a revised bumper with black-plastic extension, front skid plate, updated headlamps, new rim design, and rear skid plate finished in silver. Matching the orange exterior color, the interior has a dual tone orange and black color combination with leather upholstery. It also has silver and gloss black trim on the dashboard.

Toyota Sienta Cross

As for the Toyota Sienta Cross, it looks largely identical to the 2015 Toyota Sienta, save for a silver skid plate, a funky dual tone bright green and black exterior color, exclusive alloy rim design with bright green pinstripe, and body graphics. The interior is upholstered in leather, and has the same color combination as the exterior.
