Not really, it would put it out of the demographic/price they are targeting, they have always said it will have a V6 and it has always been purported to be for US release only.usmcruiser said:I know that in the over dramatized reveal they said that it would have a V6, but do ya'll think that there will be a V8 option since it is going to be made here in the US?

Terrax said:Confusing articles out there saying both Japan and NUMMI. If it's gonna be affordable then it has to be built here, then again if it's based on the 4runner platform I would say Japan. Let's hope Japan since I tend to think nothing but rock solid coming from there. Also hybrid and diesel talk, if diesel make it D4D and I guarantee you all the naysayers would be waiting inline.
I saw some literature about this too. I think it was mostly because the RX400h has the same engine as the 300 doesn't it? It's still a V6 I know that, might not be the exact same one but I thought it was. So the 400 has all the power of the 300 but then with the hybrid stuff added, so not surprising it was actually faster 0-60 than the RX300. (Hmm, the current RX is the 330 though, I wonder if maybe the hybrid has the older 3.0 engine?) Pretty cool though how the hybrid would not only be the better, cleaner, vehicle but also faster and the more high performance one. To me that is a quantum shift from what I've always thought about the hybrids, which were they were neat and all but lame and slow. Good work Toy engineers!!madams557 said:for Toyota it was at least the Lexus RX300 compared to the RX400h.
