I feel like a completely unique chassis and rotary engine would easily be more than double the cost of any other platform. Chances are they will make the platform more "modular" and share it with a number of other AWD SUVs, and then stick another fun/sporty RWD coupe-like car as well. Just very hard to see billions invested in development of the rotary engine. Going for a similar driving dynamic would be more than enough to capture a new segment of drivers.
