Toyota Kayoibako: A van for all purposes
The Japanese automobile manufacturer Toyota has announced the van concept Kayoibako for the Japan Mobility Show 2023 (October 26 to November 5). The very compact concept vehicle, with a length of four meters, is intended to be versatile. The name Kayoibako is derived from the Japanese word for reusable box, which not only clearly hints at the boxy design of the concept vehicle but also its high flexibility. The structure can be customized to individual needs, as can the software and hardware inside, according to the promise. In the commercial sector, the fully electric vehicle can be used locally emissions-free and almost silently in last-mile logistics traffic.
Through individual customization, single transport goods such as parcels can be transported efficiently and safely. By installing product shelves, the Kayoibako can also be transformed into a rolling store that brings groceries and more directly to the customer. Alternatively, additional seats turn the model into a shuttle bus. This way, Toyota supports local communities. Private users can create their very own personal vehicle. The Kayoibako is also intended to be wheelchair accessible.
