The massive range will have everything from hatchbacks, sedans and small crossovers to big SUVs, pick-up SUV, lifestyle SUV and even performance electric cars.
Well! If you are following the images, by now you must have guessed that these EVs are basically the electric version of the brand's existing model line-up. For instance, electric version of the Toyota FJ Cruiser, Toyota Tundra and even the Toyota RAV4 are quite predictable. As for the Toyota bZ4x, the Japanese brand says that it has a "beautiful silhouette and the design makes you hop inside and take the vehicle out for a spin. It gives us the impression of a future electric C-HR."

Toyota says that it is being developed with solid-state batteries in mind and it aims to clock 100 kmph in under 2 second along with providing range for 700 km, courtesy a "secret sauce" that was designed during the development of the already iconic LFA. And finally, the Toyota Tundra based pick-up truck along with the FJ Cruiser based lifestyle SUV also made to the stage.

Finally, there are two small EVs as well - the Mid Box and Micro Box, serving as zero-emissions delivery vehicles for city use. Now this huge EV line-up is basically a step in the direction of Toyota's aim to achieve global annual sales of 3.5 million battery-powered EVs. And to get there, the dynamic duo will introduce 30 electric vehicles by the end of the decade with an investment of $35 billion. Lexus will go fully electric in Europe, the United States, and China by 2030 which is when it is targeting achieving one million EV sales per year. In 2035, Lexus will become a purely electric brand and both companies will achieve carbon neutrality at their factories.
