I think also it's a fatty weighing in at 4k lbs won't make it a good turner.
It's no secret they're trying to be the pioneers of soulless EV cars... so, they don't want to put money into costly sports car R&D. If you look at it. At minimum Toyota is working with other companies to absorb the cost of putting out a sports car.

Nissan lamo's help Mercedes with their suspension in cars like the A45amg and the amg gts/gtr. Instead of building sports cars with Benz, in turn Nissan makes sport crossovers.

Bitches... they make me sick already.
