Rumours: Next-Gen Toyota Supra Could Be All-Electric

The upcoming Toyota Supra might switch to an all-electric drivetrain, if rumours are to be believed.

The sixth-generation Supra will almost certainly maintain a RWD layout, with motors mounted on the back axle and supported by e-TNGA underpinnings.
