Toyota is preparing to return to the mini-MPV segment at the upcoming Paris Auto Show, introducing the new Verso-S. In addition to that, the automaker will celebrate 10 years of full hybrid technology at the event.
The Verso-S, which will enter the B-MPV segment, will make its world debut at the event, prior to its market introduction, which is scheduled to take place early next year.
“Small, spacious and smart, Verso-S is an object lesson in space management. Although it has the shortest overall length of any B-segment MPV in Europe - less than four metres - careful attention to detail and a practical, flexible interior design have maximised usable space, comfort and perceived quality,” stated the press release.
Toyota will also introduce a number of upgrades for the iQ and Aygo. The first will get a new interior finish, aimed at increasing the quality level. The Aygo will receive a new color scheme and a fresh multimedia system.
Toyota’s Paris stand will be focused on the Hybrid Synergy Drive technology. The company will be celebrating the recent launch of the UK-built Auris HSD (the first full-hybrid in the C-segment) and the European Prius passing the 200,000 units mark.
“Toyota’s presentation at Paris will include the Hybrid Synergy Drive Gallery, an interactive exhibition which charts the company’s drive towards sustainable mobility through its development of HSD for use in Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles (PHV), Electric Vehicles (EV) and fuel Cell Hybrid Vehicles (FCHV),” stated the press release.
In addition to that, the Toyota FT-CH Concept will make its European debut at the show, as the company’s first proposal for a full hybrid for the compact car segment.
