Common questions about this manufacturer

The only model that could be considered an electric Toyota vehicle would be the Mirai, which is a fuel cell electric vehicle that uses hydrogen to generate electricity. However, Toyota plans to launch at least ten new battery electric vehicles in the next five years, starting with the Toyota bZ4X, Proace City Electric and Proace Electric. These vehicles will run on battery power alone and will not have a tailpipe3, meaning that they will not emit any harmful gases.

A brief history of Toyota
Toyota was founded back in 1937 by Kiichiro Toyoda, a textile engineer who was inspired by the automated looms that he saw while travelling in the United States. He returned to Japan with a plan to create a new type of loom, but his father said that it wouldn't work because it would be too noisy and not very efficient. So instead he applied his knowledge to cars—and created Toyota.
Toyota's first car was called the Toyopet, which translates to "Let's go everywhere." It cost just $700, and only had two seats—but it could go anywhere! And it did: after World War II, the company expanded its operations into Southeast Asia and South America.
Today, Toyota makes some of the most popular cars on the road: Prius (hybrid), Corolla (small sedan), Camry (mid-sized sedan), Highlander (SUV), RAV4 (compact SUV), Yaris (compact hatchback), Tacoma (full-size pickup truck).
