My wife got this picture from Toyotas Instagram before the video was edited. They are definitely getting the hype up.

Loving the stock wheels they're choosing

The Stock wheels actually look somewhat Bronze/copper in a way which would be a great color to have.
I love it but didn't expect the ride height to be so high. Kirk Kreifels made a video on it that's worth watching:

Any car that has AWD is always going to sit higher then a FWD or RWD version

I'm happy with that height, maybe a tad higher would be fine

I agree, I'm okay with its height. Makes me want to take it off-roading.
Hoping I can get a lot of wheel travel out of it
I wanna see you guys take it off road

I can totally see this as a fun car that can be autocrossed on the weekends and everyday driving through snow and other environments.

I want to see people take it over some sweet jumps

Could be making a left handed turn, pulling the outside fenders up a bit.

Great catch by your wife! By the time I saw it the video was down. The ride height seems fine to me from this photo. But let's see if Toyota keeps it like this when they reveal the car.

I will do both of these whenever I get mine and build it. I'll post all the updates here :)

There’s absolutely no reason an awd car has to be higher than fwd or rwd. If you don’t believe me, check out the awd cars from Lamborghini, Porsche, etc.

Lots of companies show prototypes with ride heights much lower than the production car ends up. It looks like in Toyota’s case, these leaked photos probably show cars with production ride height. But don’t worry, for folks wanting the car to be lower, there will be aftermarket suspension pieces to do just that- and probably also pieces from Toyota themselves.

Your naming supercars to a $35k Corolla hot hatch
Your naming supercars to a $35k Corolla hot hatch
Are you suggesting supercars have some technology that lets them change the laws of physics?

Why would an awd car have to sit higher then a FWD or RWD version?

These are 5 awd examples I’ve owned over the years that weren’t higher than their 2wd counterparts (yes, I am old!):

Golf R not higher than GTI.
Audi S4 not higher than fwd A4.
993 C4 Porsche not higher than 993 C2.
Mazda 323GTX not higher than fwd 323.
Mitsubishi Galant VR4 not higher than fwd Galant.

Am I missing something? Why would awd have to sit higher?
