The Japanese automobile manufacturer Toyota is accelerating the full electrification of its vehicles and has announced initial details of a new SUV model with an all-electric drive. The midsize vehicle, according to reports, is based on the new e-TNGA platform for electric vehicles, which can be adapted to a variety of different product types. The new architecture combines variable with non-variable key components and is said to offer high flexibility in vehicle width, length, wheelbase, and height, according to the manufacturer. This also applies to the drive types, where front-wheel, rear-wheel, and all-wheel drives are possible. With the wide performance range in batteries and electric motors, the company aims to cover different vehicle types and usage profiles.
The platform's flexibility also allows development times for different model variants to be reduced and individual models to be developed in parallel. The first model based on e-TNGA has already been developed and is currently being prepared for production. Manufacturing will take place at the ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) plant for electric vehicles in Japan. Further details about the battery-electric SUV will be announced in the coming months.
"Toyota will soon take the next step in expanding its battery-electric portfolio and gives a preview of a new mid-size SUV model," explained Koji Toyoshima, Deputy Chief Officer of the ZEV plant at Toyota Motor Corporation.
Thanks to the versatile and flexible platform, vehicles will be developed that not only have a battery-electric drive but also boast an attractive design and offer a lot of driving pleasure," Toyoshima further promised.
