The Toyota Indy V8 is a naturally aspirated racing engine, first displacing 3.5 litres and later 3.0 litres, that Toyota Racing Development designed, developed and produced for the Indy Racing League IndyCar Series from 2003 to 2005. It was drawn on a clean sheet of paper rather than adapted from the earlier Toyota RV8 series, though it leaned on the experience of Toyota's turbocharged CART engines, which won 21 races between 1999 and 2002. TRD USA built and developed it at its Costa Mesa, California facility, with dynamometer testing starting in February 2002 and a first run in a race car in July 2002. It made its racing debut at the 2003 season-opening Toyota Indy 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Toyota left the series after the 2005 season when Team Penske and Target Chip Ganassi Racing announced a switch to Honda, and it redirected resources to NASCAR.
