Toyota presents concept cars at Tokyo Motor Show

TOKYO—Toyota presented its vision for the future of mobility at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show, where it revealed three new concept cars.

Toyota said its commitment to advanced powertrain technology was embodied by three models: the all-new Prius, Toyota C-HR Concept (a compact hybrid crossover) and Toyota FCV Plus, a fuel cell concept that brings to life Toyota’s vision of a hydrogen-based society.

While these vehicles represent the ever-changing nature of mobility, Toyota said it would also show two concepts created to reaffirm the fundamental relationship between car and driver: the Toyota S-FR, a fun-to-drive entry-level lightweight sports car, and the Toyota Kikai, a design concept that calls to mind the innate beauty of machinery.

Also on display is a test vehicle currently under development with a view to participation in the FIA World Rally Championship, and a Land Cruiser used in the Toyota Discovery Tour.
