The 2021 Toyota Corolla Cross is what you get if you blend a Corolla with the CH-R – or is it the other way around? Nevertheless, the all-new Corolla Cross was recently unveiled in Thailand. According to the Japanese carmaker, the Thais will have a first dab at the new Corolla Cross this year while other markets will follow soon.
Toyota has given its burly 2021 TRD Pro trucks a handsome new finish, with the Lunar Rock paint option being added to its 4Runner, Tacoma, Sequoia, and Tundra models. Meanwhile, there are new Trail Special Editions of some of its most popular trucks and SUVs headed to dealerships in the fall.
We were expecting good things from the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime plug-in hybrid, but new official economy figures released confirmed by the EPA suggest there's another surprise in store. Announced back in November 2019, the new RAV4 PHEV was billed not only as Toyota's most fuel-efficient version of its compact crossover SUV, but its most powerful too.
The 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime is different from a conventional plug-in hybrid (PHEV). It also trumps a standard RAV4 Hybrid in terms of performance. According to Toyota, the new RAV4 Prime is the quickest four-door vehicle in its portfolio behind the Toyota Supra. We never thought this day would come, but it seems the new RAV4 Prime is moving the goalposts for future PHEVs.
In a rather surprising turn of events, Toyota Racing Development (TRD) recently unveiled a new set of aero-tweaked upgrades for the Lexus LC. On that note, we never thought we’d see a Lexus fitted with TRD parts – much less a Lexus LC, but here it is. On second thought, Lexus is made by Toyota, but the Lexus brand never took off in its home market of Japan until 2005.
Toyota has announced it will make its THUMS or Total Human Model for Safety software freely available starting in January 2021. Making the software freely available is part of Toyota's efforts towards a safe mobility society. THUMS is a virtual human body model software program designed for computer analysis of human body injuries caused in vehicle accidents. Toyota believes making the software freely available to a wide variety of users will enhance vehicle safety.
Toyota has priced up its 2021 Supra line-up, including confirming just how much the new entry-level Supra 2.0 will cost to put on your drive. Announced earlier this year, the new inline-4 turbo Supra may have less power than its six-cylinder sibling - which is actually getting a horsepower bump for the 2021 model year - but there are some very good reasons why it might be the Supra to pick.
The 2021 Toyota Hilux is now better, tougher, and stronger than ever. And with the possible addition of a high-performance GR Hilux variant, Toyota’s midsize pickup truck is determined to run circles around the Ford Ranger, Nissan Navara, and Chevy Colorado.
The 2021 Toyota Corolla Hatchback Special Edition is further proof that Toyota is slowly getting back in the fun game. It started with sportier TRD renditions of the Camry and Avalon, both of which are better known as reliable family vehicles than barnstormers. And while the Corolla Hatchback Special Edition is comprised mainly of aftermarket-type exterior enhancements, it’s further proof that Toyota is serious in giving the mainstream Corolla a sportier edge over its counterparts.
Toyota has announced pricing and a general launch date on the new Toyota Rav4 Prime. This vehicle is the quickest and most fuel-efficient RAV4 that Toyota has ever offered. The vehicle lands in dealerships this summer and will start at $38,100.
Toyota is rebooting the Venza, with the new 2021 Venza morphing from a fairly forgettable "Camry station wagon" into a sleek crossover SUV. Discontinued back in 2015, the old Venza defied classification - and not necessarily in a good way - with its wagon-esque styling. Now, the 2021 Venza promises to be a lot more memorable.
Toyota has pulled the wraps off the new 2021 Sienna, and if you thought minivans couldn't be striking - and fuel efficient - then think again. All-new in its fourth-generation, the revamped van will only be offered as a hybrid, with Toyota estimating a whopping 33 mpg is possible.
