A new report claims that Toyota is toying with the idea of bringing the MR2 back from the dead and powering it with the GR Corolla's engine, but there's a twist: it may only be sold in Japan
If you've got a good engine, you might as well find as many ways to use it as possible. Fresh off its starring roles in the GR Yaris and the GR Corolla, Toyota's wild G16E-GTS three-cylinder turbocharged engine could potentially find its way into the revival of the much-loved and missed, mid-engine MR2. Rumors of the MR2's much-anticipated comeback have been circulating for what feels like an eternity.
6-liter three-cylinder engine makes 300 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque in the GR Corolla, which would be plenty for a small, mid-engine sports car. Unlike the hatchbacks, it is suggested that the engine would exclusively power the MR2's rear wheels. Although speculations about the return of the MR2 may appear overly optimistic, they aren't entirely unfounded.
