New Toyota has speed to spare



THE Toyota FT-HS hybrid sports concept car made its debut at the Detroit International Motor Show last week.

It has a sleek profile, uses lightweight aerodynamic materials and is powered by an advanced high-output powertrain with ultra-low emissions and fuel efficiency.

This two-plus-two concept is a front-engine, rear-drive sports car with a projected 0-100km in four seconds from the 3.5litre V6 engine coupled with a sports hybrid system. Fuel consumption can run as low as 4.5l/100km even with a big engine.

The front and rear have been designed to promote smooth airflow and reduce turbulence. The roof has a distinctive scooped-out section to reduce aerodynamic drag and the vehicle's triangular profile has a floating 'C' pillar and an open top. The rear light unit spans the entire rear, and there is a retractable spoiler.
