Voted! 👍

Here is a great video of TS040 HYBRID #7 dominating 24h du Mans 2014 before it's heartbreaking electrical failure - Damn FIA-sanctioned parts denying Toyota a sure-fire victory.​

The ups and downs of endurance racing...

Personally I wanted Porsche to win, but definitely not Audi.

The old heroes will rise again!

No need to vote for this one as without a doubt this car is coming to a GT game near you.....
Soooooo ugly....yet even that Audi e-tron race car looks like this too. Apparently it's more aerodynamic this way. Those darn engineers, what do they know of aesthetics??!!

 

[Scuderia Paul]

From the extensive session at Magny-Cours during the season break. It sounds great!

With the #8 Toyota TS040 HYBRID within 5pt of winning the WEC 2014 Drivers' Championship we will surely see this monster performer of a racing car in GT7. Right? Keep voting incase PD needs convincing!

It is a nice car. It is so powerfull and it would be interesting to see it with TS030... 👍

 

[BrunoI_SRE]

once in a while an idiot comes up on GTP and gives the others a true performance. PESCAROLOP902 sure did make me laugh, and I was expecting that well deserved ban ever since he got rude to Famine.

As much as I may respect Pescarolo for being a successfulish privateer team, Toyota is way better, and I am really liking how Audi is beginning to fall (I like Audi but they have been too dominant for my liking).

I've been a fan of Audi since my first Le mans race that I watch in 2000. I'm happy that Audi has competition now hopefully next season they build a better hybrid/s systems.

Get voting for the car that has won the WEC Drivers Championship and will add the Manufacturers' Championship in a fortnight in Sao Paolo.

I don't actually think it's ugly

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Sure, why not model the TS040? I'm always up for more LMPs.

 

[StarLight]

Too less likes for such amazing car ...

Some onboard from the Toyota TS040-HYBRID from the recent 6h Bahrain.

Voted, that car is such a beast!

We need this champion car to feature in GT7! 👍

100% correct @Harsk100. PD bring on the Champions!

 

[CORRUPTEDDISC]

The TS030 that we already have on GT6 does 235 mph with low aero, so this thing should hit 250 easily...

Yes, but if we'll have TS040 in GT7, then it will be a competitor for TS030.

Seriously, having the TS040 Hybrid in GT6 would be a great car to rival the Bugatti Veyron. The TS040 is MUCH lighter than the Veyron, handles better than the Veyron, and is quicker than the Veyron. Overall, the TS040 would be a better car to buy and drive than the Bugatti Veyron, since we see Veyrons every day online. Plus the more LMPs the better.

.........................I do agree with you on this Toyota being better than a Veyron, but isn't the fatty French a road car?

Yep...

Here is almost 1hr of onboard night footage of the TS040 HYBRID. Seeing them race at night is an amazing experience.

Not even a competition...
TS040's HP is twice of TS030

The 2013 TS030 has peak power of about 800bhp while the 2014 TS040 is about 987bhp. But you are correct in that it would be no competition whatsoever.

Oh...I thought TS030 is 519 HP like in its stats ><

The stat in GT6 only counts the 3.4lt V8 ICE power. Hybrid power is for some reason ignored.

its as ugly as the 787B... so its bound to win Le Mans this year.

This is the 2014 car... They're running an updated version this year.

Wrong for Le Mans at least as they will have a low aero configuration kit.
