Can this mad, mid-engined Toyota concept save the sportscar?

Is Toyota about to save the sportscar? Maybe. A bit.

Allow us to present the mad, mid-engined Toyota GR Yaris. You'll know the GR Yaris traditionally has its engine in the nose, but this be no traditional GR Yaris, because it's a testbed for a future mid-engined sportscar. Two of 'em, actually.

Because the concept's 400bhp absolute unit can be deployed anywhere, which means: a new Celica! And a new Mister 2! Maybe!
