In this month’s Frankfurt Motor Show, Toyota wil use to show off at least four concept vehicles, including a show car version of what will eventually become the Japanese automaker’s first European-made hybrid vehicle. Also, Toyota’s Lexus luxury brand will display a hatchback concept at the Frankfurt show.
On this Tuesday, Toyota revealed that it will display a hybrid version of its Auris at the Frankfurt show. A production version of the concept will begin rolling out of Toyota’s Derby factory near London in mid-2010. Toyota also says that the hybrid version of the Auris will sip 19 percent less fuel than its non-hybrid counterpart and spew 17 percent fewer emissions. The Auris platform serves as the basis for the Lexus HS 250h hybrid, so expect fuel economy to check in at about 35 mpg city and 34 mpg highway.
Meanwhile, Toyota will use the Frankfurt Motor Show to reveal a plug-in hybrid version of its third-generation Prius. Even though there has no mass production plans have been announced for the Prius plug-in hybrid, Toyota will offer 150 examples for fleet use next year.
In addition, in Frankfurt, Toyota will show two concept version of the diminutive iQ, with one appearing to be nothing more than the Scion concept of the same name that appeared at this year’s New York Auto Show.
