Toyota MR2 EV 2025: Price, consumption, picture, technical data.

The Toyota MR2 EV could return as a lightweight, agile sports car – possibly with a purely electric powertrain. Toyota sold three generations of mid-engine MR2s in Europe between 1985 and 2005. Akio

Technical details

Our crystal ball remains cloudy about what will be under the hood. Although Toyota is committed to hybrid, Toyota is also beginning to develop all-electric models. And both of the company’s current sports cars were jointly developed with other automakers – the Supra with BMW and the 86 with Subaru – so another alliance is possible.

Whether gasoline, electric, or hybrid powered, we can safely assume that any future MR2 will strive to adhere to the lightweight ethos of its predecessors. The third-generation car sold in the early 2000s weighed 2200 pounds and used a 138-horsepower inline-four engine; that’s a good weight-to-power ratio on target.
