According to Reuters, the new Toyota Lexus is part of the Japanese automaker’s strategy for electric vehicles reliant on advanced battery technology. The BEV LF-ZC concept uses prismatic batteries with high performance that achieve twice the range of conventional electric cars, or around 1,000 km of range. It also boasts a spacious cockpit and utilizes Advanced Intelligence, which Toyota has dubbed Butler.
The system can identify preferences that drivers may not be aware of. According to Toyota brand director Simon Humphries at a press conference, the key to achieving these advances is minimizing and reducing components in all areas, including smaller and more efficient batteries, with more power and greater range.
