Many ways can be done to introduce Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) to the public. However, as a mobility provider company, Toyota will of course first focus specifically on a number of things, namely the development of technology and the amount of a stable supply of vehicles as well as an increase in battery life and reuse. Toyota will also continue to prepare the framework for responding to the challenges going forward thoroughly, including the creation of new business models.
Vehicle Electrification Initiative
There are three things that are considered as the core technology of an electric motor vehicle (KBL) by Toyota, namely electric motors, batteries, and Power Control Units (PCU). From this core technology, it can be developed into various types of electric motorized vehicles later. When more specific technology with this core technology is combined, vehicles will be created such as Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV), Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV). In fact, by adding an automatic steering system and connectivity technology, new mobility services can be created, namely Mobility as a Service (MaaS).
By developing this core technology, Toyota can serve consumers and society in various ways, not only by providing vehicles but also by providing systems and technology.
Popularizing Electric Motor Vehicles Milestones
In 2017 Toyota announced the target of sales of electric motor vehicles to reach more than 5.5 million units by 2030. The number consisted of 4.5 million or more units comprising the combined HEV and PHEV and 1 million units or more combined BEV and FCEV.
Electric Vehicle Popularization Growth
One and a half years since Toyota announced in 2017 about the expected sales of electric motor vehicles in 2030, it turns out that there is an increase that is more than expected, this shows that Toyota must be ready to reach the estimated figure almost five years earlier.
Zero-Emission Vehicles
Among various initiatives related to various types of electrification vehicles, Toyota puts forward its evolution from vehicles without emissions, such as FCEV, which does not emit CO2 during its use.
In addition to BEV technology, Toyota is developing a variety of vehicles, ranging from BEV-pedestrian zones (or pedestrian areas) to ultra-compact two-seat BEVs, as well as BEV conventional sized passenger vehicles.
E-Palette is Toyota's vision of BEV that provides a tangible form for Mobility as a Service (MaaS) whose development is nearing the final and will be used at the upcoming 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.
Actively Launching BEV
Toyota has announced to gradually launch more than 10 BEV models throughout the world in the first half of 2020 which began in China. Toyota has also introduced one BEV product to the public by launching the Toyota IZOA and C-HR in April 2019 at the Shanghai Auto Show. The electric car will later be launched throughout the plains of China and become the initial milestone of sales throughout the world in accordance with the conditions and needs in each country
