Looking striking in new Brass Gold Bi-tone, with a solid stance, bold C-pillar and crisp, fluid surfaces, this is the all-new Yaris Cross.
Based on the latest GA-B compact car platform - though both taller and longer - the similarities with the new Yaris are there to be seen, but aspects of its bigger brother the RAV4 are also apparent in its angular styling and taught surfacing.
Known for its ability to handle all kinds of tough terrain – including the North Pole, South Pole and the Dakar Rally – Hilux has been the go-to vehicle if you’re in the market for a powerful workhorse.
Its indestructible reputation has been built over seven generations of constant development and testing in the harshest of topographies. From navigating treacherous icy ridges to entering an active volcano – the boundaries of impossibility keep on being pushed.
To understand the full legend though, we first need to delve back to where it all began…
Jonnie Peacock, the two-time Paralympic champion, was one of the stars of the London Paralympic Games in 2012 when he made history by winning the T44 100m at the age of just 19.
He has since gone on to win every major medal available, including another 100m Paralympic Gold at Rio 2016. Jonnie has been Toyota GB’s lead ambassador for Parasport, the initiative which aims to make it easier for disabled people in the UK to get active.
Toyota UK caught up with Jonnie to find out how he sets his goals and copes with pressure.
The new GR Yaris is a pure performance car, born from Toyota’s title-winning experience in the World Rally Championship (WRC). Forged from success in the heat of competition, it brings motorsport technology and design directly to the world of the road car, true to Toyota Gazoo Racing’s ethos of making ever-better cars that are intrinsically rewarding and fun to drive.
The new Toyota RAV4 Hybrid has triumphed in 4×4 Magazine’s 4×4 of the Year Awards, named Best Medium SUV.
The award reflects the all-round qualities of the fifth generation of Toyota’s compact SUV, launched in spring 2019. It also sustains RAV4’s reputation for market-leading success since the original model created the concept of the recreational SUV 25 years ago.
The Toyota C-HR arrived on the market three years ago as Toyota's first compact crossover model. Its combination of striking design, athletic handling and efficient powertrains has so far attracted some 50,000 sales in the UK, 80% of which have been specified with the self-charging hybrid powertrain.

Toyota led the world with the introduction of the hydrogen-powered Mirai saloon in 2014. Now it is getting ready to take its advanced zero emission fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) technology to new heights, previewing the second generation Mirai in a special exhibit at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show (23 October to 4 November).
Efficiency is still a critical area, and Toyota is targeting a 30 per cent increase in Mirai’s driving range through improvements to the fuel cell system and the use of larger on-board hydrogen tanks.

The Camry name has returned this year with an All New hybrid model, which is now available to order.
Being the larger sized model in the Toyota Saloon fleet, the All New Camry Hybrid offers refined elegance for driver and passengers, and combines high-performance with efficiency from its next-generation hybrid powertrain.
