Car industry predictions for the next decade:

1. Mazda brings back Mazdaspeed (or rebrand as MSR, which would be a big miss). They will take the CX-70 RWD based platform with the longitudinal 3.3t I6, and make a longitudinal , AWD Mazdaspeed 6 to compete with BMW, Acura, Cadillac, and now Dodge (hurricane). Probably auto only.

2. Toyota puts their boosted V8 in the Lexus F cars (and 500s).

3. Honda reveals a boosted V8 and an improved turbo 6, and an e-turbo V3 for bikes, and a larger odd number V engine for cars, maybe in place of a new turbo 6, like a V5. Maybe they won't invest in the odd Vs, but they are working on something BIG in secret, I smell it. Like new S2000 big, S2030 or something.

4. Dodge shifts the Charger to be electric only and creates a new Challenger that is gas only.

5. GM invests a huge amount of money in the LF3 twin turbo V6 so it can match the output of the Hurricane motor from Dodge. They release a Chevy version of the Cadillac CT4. They might release a new turbo 4 to compete with the EA888 and K series.

6. Ford releases a new Ford GT with over 1000 HP, RWD only, like the corvette ZR1.

7. Ford brings back a hot hatch, the market shits itself.

8. Dodge releases a new Viper to compete with the GR GT, Corvette ZR1, and whatever Ford comes out with.

9. Nissan eliminates the Z line, and brings back the GT-S. R36 flops hard unless they launch it with a GT-S

Bet 50 sats on it, at least 5 predictions will come true.
