Toyota unveils new electric car

A brand new electric car from Toyota has arrived in the United States – in the form of the 2013 Scion iQ EV (pictured). 

The battery-electric four-seat city car has been designed specifically for urban car sharing programmes, particularly on university campuses; and Toyota is targeting around 90 units for these applications. According to Chris Hostetter, who is the group vice president of strategic planning for Toyota, the iQ EVs will be featured in fleet and car sharing applications and will expand on Toyota’s portfolio of advanced technology vehicles: which already includes the likes of the Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid; the Toyota RAV4 EV; and the Toyota FCHV-ADV.
