Toyota goals to attain carbon neutrality by 2050 and firmly believes that “eco cars will contribute to the environment only once they come widespread.” Nevertheless, with a presence in 204 countries, each with differing market conditions, offering a single solution that may meet the necessities of each Toyota customer is just unfeasible.

As an illustration, the shortage of proper infrastructure limits the widespread use of electrical vehicles (EVs) in some countries, and the identical can be true of hydrogen-powered vehicles. There’s also the problem of cost, as customers in certain markets may not have the identical spending power as those in others.

As such, the Japanese carmaker pursues a multi-pathway strategy where quite a lot of low-carbon personal transport solutions are offered that best suit the needs of consumers. This strategy involves developing powertrains of a various types, from hybrid vehicles (HEVs) that were pioneered by the Prius over 20 years ago, to plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV).

By way of specifications, this bZ4X contains a 71.4-kWh lithium-ion battery pack that is sweet for a variety of as much as 500 km following the WLTP standard.
