Default RC300h RWD or AWD?

i've scoured the different forums and websites, but i haven't seen if the RC300h will be RWD or AWD

the GS hybrid is RWD, but my ES300h is FWD, and the NX300h suv will have BOTH FWD and AWD as options.

has anyone seen information about this?

RC is RWD vehicle and so far western RWD hybrids with 300h powertrain have been available only as RWD.

However, Toyota developed AWD system for 300h RWD based vehicles so quite likely it is coming to GS300h and IS300h, and maybe RC300h as well.
