Need for Speed without Toyota ???

@CV_tuner EA can not do anything against this, the problem is not EA, is Toyota

@CV_tuner If you do not work for EA you have no clue what is going on. Maybe EA tried to negotiate with Toyota and Toyota refused. It is Toyota's' loss if they are not in this game. If Toyota does not want to license their cars in a game that is up to them. As someone said before, it is not a problem with Ea it is a problem with Toyota and if you are refusing to accept that, that is on you. If you are not going to buy a game based off of Toyota not being in the game that, again, is on you and is a childish reason not to get the game. More copies can go to people who want the game.

@CV_tuner Maybe Toyota will see that but as far as EA goes, they can not help what Toyota wants. Maybe they have a new policy on racing games now. It just depends on Toyota. I highly doubt EA did not try considering the Supra has been in a lot of their racing games.

The game is only a couple of months away. Toyota will not be in the game when it is released.

Gah this is sad ☹️. Would have loved to see the supra come back but with some of the other cars that have been revealed lately, so far I'm happy with this list, but let's hope they come back In DLC like Forza did with Porsche

I hope this is not true. What is a Need For Speed game without the Supra?

We know the subject of Toyota is on a lot of minds over the last few weeks. As many of you here suspect, there will be no Toyota cars in Need for Speed Payback. While we’re as disappointed as you are, we do hope that we’ll once again see Toyota back in Need for Speed in the future."

Unfortunately Toyota has a policy of not allowing it's cars into street racing games.

@NathanLoiselle The Supra is in Forza Horizon 3 and it was in NFS 2015. So its either an agreement issue, licensing issue or they wanted more money and EA said no.

Forza Motorsport 7 also will not have Toyota cars, possibly none Lexus too.

Probably a new policy they have now. I am sure that they will change that. Toyota is having trouble making appealing cars now-a-days anyways. We have BMW, Lamborghini, Chevy etc in this game. Plenty of good cars to choose from.

All I know is what EA_Drew (when he was EA_Drew) told me when the first Shift game came out. Toyota will specifically not put their cars into STREET racing games. I'm guessing Forza Horizon was licensed as a group package with regular Forza.

@NathanLoiselle Thats still odd considering NFS 2015 had a Supra and a Corolla (If I am not mistaken).
