Toyota's compact hybrid crossover to debut at Geneva

By / 9 years ago / News / No Comments

Previewed by the C-HR concept car last year (pictured), Toyota says this will be a coupe-SUV crossover, smaller than the RAV4 and designed to be fun to drive rather than focusing on practicality as in its larger sibling.

The as-yet-unnamed crossover is expected to be a key user-chooser car, and will be available with a hybrid drivetrain likely to emit less than 100g/km CO2.

Geneva will also mark the European debut of the new Hilux pickup, now equipped with a more efficient 2.4-litre diesel engine, as well as the Proace Verso, a nine-seat MPV based on the Proace van.
