A Beautiful Story to Tell!

Since 1997, the international company located in the city of Toyota in Japan has been focusing its energies on new advanced technologies. However, the Japanese manufacturer is certainly a leader in the field of environmental protection and the fight against greenhouse gases (GHGs).

The company's engineers have developed an impressive range of plug-in hybrid cars.

Thanks to the evolution of the Synergy Drive hybrid system, Toyota is now a world leader in hybrid cars. As soon as it was launched, the Prius was named New Car of the Year in 1997 and 1998.
