Toyota points to the future with trio of electric vehicles
Toyota has revealed three new EVs to compete in the microcar and SUV segments.
Firstly, the FT-ME concept is a direct rival to Citroen’s Ami quadricycle.
It comes in a two-seater layout and measures just 2.5 metres in length, giving it more of an urban focus. There are connectivity features that allow users to hook up their smartphones to the vehicle, enabling them to start the car via mobile devices.
Sadly, the FT-ME is just a concept car with no plans to put it into production.
The second car is an updated version of the firm’s bZ4x electric SUV.
It comes with a revised interior with a 14-inch touchscreen fitted as standard, along with an updated centre console design.
New software updates include an EV routing function, which automatically sets a route via the car’s navigation system for the most convenient charging stops based on the car’s remaining battery charge.
Toyota also recently revealed its third electric car with the CH-R+ SUV.
It comes in a choice of two battery packs, with front and all-wheel-drive versions available.
Further details regarding prices and specifications will be revealed later this year when the car goes on sale.
