Even suffering some criticism, Toyota decided to innovate in the concept of sustainable cars and surprised the automotive industry with the idea of increasing the efficiency of combustion engines.
In recent times, the great automotive industry has been committed to evolving to replace cars with combustion engines with electric vehicles. However, Toyota decided to go the other way: the idea now is to increase the efficiency of cars with combustion engines.
Toyota announces it will work on improvements to combustion-powered cars
Even though there is almost unanimous consensus that the eletric cars and other electrified vehicles will surpass gasoline-powered cars, it is not yet known for sure when this will actually happen.
Toyota, on the other hand, believes that this will not happen as quickly as many think, and that is why the Japanese automaker decided to follow a different path, putting together a new strategy to dominate the sector of sustainable vehicles and throw Elon Musk's Tesla Motors to the sidelines.
Toyota has for some time been investing millions in technology aimed at new combustion engines, as a way of trying to increase their efficiency, until one day electric vehicle models are implemented more intensely in the automotive industry.
Applying technologies in combustion engines, Toyota plans to change the concept of sustainable automotive industry
The Japanese automaker has been based on the cars used in Formula 1, analyzing their efficiency and power, with less friction, to then create an engine model, which already promises to surprise the entire automotive industry.
Aiming to place one more fuel alternative in the automobile market, in addition to the electric one, Toyota has been innovating in its models of hydrogen powered cars, such as the Mirai and Yaris.
Several people in the automotive world are criticizing Toyota, calling the Japanese automaker 'conservative', for not being fully adept at changing vehicles powered by combustion to electric.
Toyota hits back at criticism
With all the criticism directed at Toyota, the Japanese automaker countered by delivering 15 brand new electric car models, with the aim of attracting its investors, showing that the brand is not only on top of the innovations in the automobile market in full transition to electrification, promoted around the world, as well as being able to offer better conditions and much more efficient models that still run on combustion.
The Toyota BZ4X was the first all-electric model that was launched by Toyota earlier this year. In addition to the Toyota BZ4X, another 7 completely new models were launched by the Japanese automaker and should arrive in all parts of the world by the year 2025.
Until that happens, Toyota will remain committed to sending other models of hybrid vehicles, also as a way of rebutting the strong criticism regarding the production of other products. This demonstrates that Toyota is very up-to-date with what is new in the international automotive market and is duly sure that the current models will meet all forms, even if gradual, of the evolution of all its vehicles.
