Toyota sta facendo quello che dovrebbe fare Jeep.
Quali sono le dimensioni previste per il Mini Cruiser? La Renegade può percorrere questa strada, lasciando spazio al tradizionale crossover B per Peugeot, FIAT e Opel.

Ci sono rumors che affermano che la Renegade II riprenderà gli stilemi della Recon ovviamente rapportati su dimensioni da B-SUV.

Toyota Land Hopper: The Cheapest Land Cruiser Ever May Debut In October As A Compact SUV

Toyota could unveil the Land Hopper as a competitor to the Ford Bronco Sport at the Japan Mobility Show, with reports suggesting that pricing may begin at less than $27,000

Earlier this year, Toyota unveiled the new 250 Series Land Cruiser, marking the highly-anticipated return of the nameplate to the USA, with the same model to be sold as the Land Cruiser Prado in some markets including Europe and Australia. Shortly after, the Japanese automaker teased the shadowy silhouette of a compact off-roader while announcing plans to expand the legendary nameplate, sparking speculation about the potential introduction of another Land Cruiser variant positioned below the 250 Series.

Now, it’s been reported that this “baby” Land Cruiser could go by the name “Land Hopper”, serving as the cheapest point of entry in Toyota’s growing lineup of off-road-ready SUVs.

According to Best Car Web, the Land Hopper name was registered as a trademark on August 8 with the Japanese Patent Office. The trademark falls under the Class 12 definition, which encompasses such categories as motors and engines for land vehicles, couplings and transmission components for land vehicles, and other parts that may make up said land vehicles.

We should note here that Toyota’s choice of the Land Hopper moniker may be specific to certain markets like Japan, as they might employ a different naming strategy in other regions. For example, they could revive the well-known FJ Cruiser nameplate for the North American market or opt for an alternative name, such as Compact Cruiser, which aligns with the concept believed to preview the production model.

Toyota pensa a un Land Cruiser a idrogeno con motore a combustione

I motori a idrogeno a combustione sono già stati testati in diversi prototipi della casa, che ora pensa a un'applicazione sul nuovo 4x4

"Ci sono possibilità di adattare [i motori a idrogeno] a questi grandi veicoli, compreso il Land Cruiser. Questo vantaggio della tecnologia può essere utilizzato per questi veicoli, compresi quelli utilizzati per il traino e il carico pesante".

Amid Rumors of a Revival, What Kind of Car Was the Celica?

The Toyota Celica is coming back?! That's the rumor going around--one that can be traced to Akio's comments on Toyota Times.

 

A Celica revival?! Akio’s comments spark interest

On March 5, 2023, at a special talk event on day two of the Shinshiro Rally, Akio was asked if he had a fondness for the Celica. Here is how he responded:

“Well, yes, I do. The Celica is a car that I would like to have again. Given its success in the WRC (FIA World Rally Championship), I think the Celica name has a special place in the hearts of rally fans, alongside the Corolla and Yaris. There was a period when Toyota dropped various cars, but we have since seen long-selling models make a comeback. I have a faint hope that President Koji Sato will carry on this trend for us.”

 

Then, on September 10, the subject cropped up again during our live broadcast from the Kita Aikoku Service Park at Rally Hokkaido. One questioner offered up, “Is a new Celica really on the cards? Many people are hoping so.”

 

“You’ll have to ask Toyota Motor about that,” replied Akio. “I’m not on the executive side.”

 

When the questioner doubled down—“You could put in a request, right?”—Akio countered, “Well, I have, but I don’t know how it will turn out.”

 

He went on, “I’m not just saying this because we’re at a rally event, but Juha Kankkunen is Mr. Celica. He was champion four times in the Celica. Now you can all have a think about why I’m asking Kankkunen to be so involved.”

 

Akio spoke about his demo runs at Rally Hokkaido with Finnish four-time WRC world champion Juha Kankkunen, showcasing a GR Yaris prototype.

 

So far, Toyota has offered no hard news of a Celica revival. Yet the car that Chairman Toyoda openly says he “would like to have again” continues to exert a strong pull.

 

We decided to look back at Toyota’s relationship with the Celica. [...]

Toyota previews expanded dedicated BEV line-up and advanced battery technologies

• Expansion of dedicated BEV line-up with the presentation of the Urban SUV and Sport Crossover concepts scheduled for introduction in the next two years.
• Development of future multiple battery technologies and new manufacturing technologies to meet customer’s requirements, as featured in the FT-3e concept.
• Market introduction of first solid state battery expected in 2027-2028, targeting a recharge time from 10 to 80% in just 10 minutes and looking to boost capacity to several tens of thousands vehicles per year

Toyota Motor Europe (TME) today presented more details of the upcoming products and technologies that will lead the company towards zero emissions in Europe. It revealed more details on its promise to introduce six dedicated BEV models by 2026, with the presentation of the Urban SUV and Sport Crossover concepts. Those 2 concepts are joining the Compact SUV concept revealed last year and the bZ4X, showing 4 of the 6 models. It also gave insights on the development of next generation battery technologies that will be rolled out to vehicles beyond 2026.

Speaking at the company’s annual Kenshiki forum in Brussels, Andrea Carlucci, vice president at Toyota Motor Europe, said: “Looking at Europe specifically, the market today is highly diverse. But the target is 100% carbon neutrality by 2035 – in just 12 years’ time. This is something we are committed to achieving.”

 

6 dedicated BEV by 2026

Globally, Toyota has developed a multipath approach to carbon neutrality, which aligns with its commitment to providing a range of powertrains that address the specific customer needs, market conditions and local infrastructure in different world regions. Its programme embraces hybrid electric, plug-in hybrid electric, battery electric and fuel cell electric systems, hydrogen combustion engines and e-fuels.

In Europe, its model range will include six dedicated battery-electric vehicles by 2026. In addition to the bZ4X that is already on sale and the Compact SUV concept trailed at last year’s forum, Toyota previewed two further vehicles that will broaden the line-up: an Urban SUV Concept and a Sport Crossover Concept.

The Urban SUV concept is a close-to-production design for a model that next year will enter what’s expected to become one of Europe’s largest BEV market segments. It has authentic SUV design and draws on the success of the hybrid electric Toyota Yaris Cross, a top-selling model in its class. As well as the option of all-wheel drive – a key element for Toyota products – customers will also have two battery choices, to suit their budget or driving range requirements.

The Sport Crossover Concept signals an alternative to SUV models with a distinctive, fastback profile that will make it a style hero for the BEV line-up. It is scheduled for introduction in Europe 2025.

 

Next generation batteries beyond 2026

The next-generation technologies Toyota is developing for post-2026 will change the way vehicles are developed, made and used. It will ensure that zero-emission mobility is affordable and accessible, true to its commitment to delivering sustainable mobility for all, with no one left behind.

It is preparing to introduce a series of new batteries, the first of which will be a performance version, designed with a conventional structure but expected to offer twice the driving range and a 20% cost reduction compared to the current bZ4X.

This will be followed by a good quality, low-cost battery that will help popularise BEVs. It will have new shape, a bipolar structure and use cheaper lithium iron phosphate (LFP) as its principal material. The aim is for this to increase range by 20% and reduce cost by 40% (vs bZ4X).

The third battery to be introduced will focus on high performance, using bipolar technologies and a high nickel cathode. Even lower costs and a further extended driving range are expected.

Turning to the prospect of Toyota’s first solid state batteries, Andrea Carlucci said: “We have made a technological breakthrough that overcomes the long-standing challenge of solid state battery durability. A method for mass production is currently being developed and we are striving for commercialisation in 2027-2028 with production capacity of several tens of thousands of vehicles.”

From the start, Toyota is looking to achieve a charge time from 10 to 80% of just 10 minutes.

Other technologies are also being developed for next-generation BEV production, engineering and design. The Kenshiki forum hosted the first European presentation of the Toyota FT-3e concept, a tech-study that embraces the full range of future technologies, minimising weight, maximising aerodynamic performance and controlling costs. The FT-3e looks at how in the future cars might offer more than mobility by connecting with society and enabling the transfer of energy and data.
