Toyota Plans To Launch Two Cars In The Near Future In Australia, What's The Strike?

Toyota plans to add more electric cars to the Australian market, not only one or even two electric vehicle models will be launched over the next two years.

Based on Drive's report, quoted on Thursday, November 28, this certainty was revealed by Australian Toyota Vice President of Sales and Marketing Sean Hanley.

"Two other variants (electric cars) will be present in Australia by the end of 2026," he said, at the launch of Land Cruiser Prado some time ago.

But unfortunately Handly did not explain in detail and it is certain what model will be launched to enliven Australia's automotive market.

Compared to the six electric models for the European market, Toyota Australia's approach to electric vehicles in the Australian market has been criticized for not doing much in the segment.

In fact, the landscape of Toyota electric vehicles is only one model, namely bZ4X and it is inferior to other brands such as Kia, Hyundai to MG.

However, Hanley revealed that the company was on the right track, and had done the right thing to bring electric vehicles.

"We have done the right thing with Multi Pathway's strategy, Toyota sees electric vehicles only as part of the overall choice of powertrain in the world today," he added.

One model that is likely to be present is the new SUV which is the production of Suzuki. The model is said to be launched in 2025.

"By utilizing the BEV units and platforms that we are developing together, we will take new steps in our collaboration in the field of electric vehicles," said Toyota President Koji Sato recently.
