Toyota Celicas have always been sporty-looking cars, but when it comes to actual performance driving, they've left much to be desired. Celicas of the past traditionally came with front-wheel drive and small, underpowered engines, though the earliest versions were rear-wheel drive, with one even serving as the basis of the original Supra.

 

Toyota now has a new generation of the Celica already deep into development, and the automaker may be about to radically change the positioning of the nameplate. According to a new report out of Japan, the next Celica won’t be anything like your dad’s.
