Well why ever not? They've already made a Kia/Rover Hybrid, so why not a Toyota?

The new Celica will have the same engine and chassis as the new impreza.

You missed the interesting bit for petrolheads:

The cheaper GT version is supposed to have a target price of under $20,000, Japan’s Best Car reports, which agree with earlier reports claiming Toyota was working on an affordable successor to the 1980’s AE86. The GT will feature a conventional front-engine RWD layout and will be powered by a naturally aspirated 2.0L Subaru four-cylinder boxer engine.

No Brendan, the interesting thing is that it'll be sold in the USA for sub $20,000, but when it comes HERE will cost around £25,000.

Wait and see if I'm not right
