It looks like a Chevy from the side. I'm not in love with it but I don't hate it.
Sad to hear about the V8...but that seems to be the direction we're moving in. I wonder if people are gonna look back and kick themselves for pushing for smaller engines with turbos. The amount of power those engines can produce is pretty incredible, but long term reliability remains to be seen.

I heard the early ecoboosts had issues but I haven't heard as much recently. I know it's certainly possible to make them reliable, I was always concerned they were running them too hard to be reliable and get that kind of power/torque numbers. Toyota hasn't had a ton of turbo engines (compared to other manufacturers) in the US market so it will be interesting to see if they have any hiccups.

Well if anyone can do it reliably...it would be Toyota. Excited to see how things go. No matter how much we may dislike it, smaller/more powerful/more efficient engines are the future and turbos are a way to achieve that.
