Tokyo Motor Show info from Toyota of Clermont.

What You Should Know About the Tokyo Motor Show

There's nothing more exciting than seeing what's coming next in the automotive industry. Motor shows happen throughout the year in different countries, each one showcasing the best of the best and the future developments of our favorite auto manufacturers. For Toyota (our personal favorite auto brand), we've seen the unveiling of the new Toyota Supra, the introduction of concepts like the TJ Cruiser or the FT-4X, autonomous ride sharing vehicles, and so much more. At Toyota of Clermont we love keeping up to date with all motor shows to see what could be coming next to the dealership and the next up is the Tokyo Motor Show taking place from October 24th to November 4th this year. If you're interested in what's next in the automotive industry, check out the latest details on the Tokyo Motor Show from us at Toyota of Clermont. What's the Tokyo Motor Show? The Tokyo Motor Show has been hosted in Japan biennially since 1954. Each year the show hosts a variety of automakers, but namely Japanese makes like Toyota, Honda, and Subaru (to name a few). These companies, along with many other makes, showcase the latest technology and vehicles they've been working on. In recent years, due to international energy crises, the shows have been focused on renewable energy and vehicle driving autonomy. During the last show, held in 2017, Toyota unveiled several concepts, including the Clermont Toyota TJ Cruiser, the FT-4X, and a Toyota Crown Concept. What's Expected Ahead of This Year's Tokyo Motor Show? While the upcoming motor show is only a short time away, much of what's expected to be showcased this year can only be speculated. But, because of recent news and different auto industry experts' published information, we have a fairly good idea of what to expect. Here are a few things you might see at the Tokyo Motor Show in October: A first look at the GRMN Toyota Supra. While the 2020 Toyota GR Supra just recently made it to our lot here at Toyota of Clermont, an even more performance-heavy version is expected to be released by Toyota within the next model year or two. This model is expected to come equipped with greater horsepower, more performance-specific suspension, and a lighter body. A new Toyota 86/Subaru BRZ. Toyota's chief engineer of the new GR Supra has repeatedly stated that there are plans to keep their performance vehicle line a trio. While we're not sure of the third vehicle in this sub line-up, the Clermont Toyota 86 is next in line behind the Supra. It's rumored that a new Toyota 86, built on a new platform and featuring some modified engineering, will be arriving soon. It's likely this vehicle will still be a collaborative effort with Subaru. More info on the possibly upcoming Toyota TJ Cruiser. The "spiritual successor" to the Toyota TJ Cruiser might get some additional information during the Tokyo Motor Show, as it has been recently rumored to have gone into production. We might also see info about the FT-4X as well. The Tokyo Motor Show is coming soon and Toyota of Clermont will have all the info as its released.  Stay tuned and feel free to reach out to us at (352) 404 - 7000 with any questions.

Toyota of Clermont Toyota TJ Cruiser

All About the Rumored Toyota TJ Cruiser

Industries move fast. In technology, new cell phones, tablets, game systems, and other products are released year after year. In the automotive industry, the same holds true. The new model year is usually released during the previous calendar year and if it's not an entire re-design it's typically a half design that still provides drivers with something new to look forward to. On the docket for Toyota is the Clermont Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition, the released 2020 Toyota Supra, TRD Pro editions of the Toyota Camry and Avalon, and much more! For most drivers, this would seem like enough vehicles to satiate even the biggest of Toyota fans, but there's more! Introducing, the Toyota TJ Cruiser! Not to be confused with the famous Toyota FJ Cruiser, this new vehicle was initially teased as a concept at the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show. It is now, reportedly, going into production to be debuted in Japan for the 2020 model year. Toyota of Clermont is here with the latest news on the exciting new Toyota TJ Cruiser, check it out! What is the new Toyota TJ Cruiser? In short, the new Clermont Toyota TJ Cruiser is part SUV part minivan. The concept was originally unveiled at the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show and featured a boxy design with a 4-seat interior design. The futuristic design also featured an engine compartment that opened in the opposite direction from almost all other production Toyota vehicles (think reverse style, like a semi-truck). Plus, the interior features a completely fold-down passenger seat for maximum cargo space. The front doors open like a typical vehicle and the two backseat doors slide open like a minivan. The Clermont Toyota TJ Cruiser, while some call it the spiritual successor to the FJ Cruiser, will use a hybrid power-train similar to that of the Toyota Prius or Corolla hybrid. The 1.8-liter hybrid power-train and the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine specs are heavily rumored to be options for this new vehicle. While the concept only featured seating for up to five, the general consensus is that it will likely come with an optional third row in some models. How are automotive journalists so certain that the new Toyota TJ Cruiser will be heading to production soon? An article obtained from a Japanese vehicle journalism site claims that Toyota has decided to unveil a production model of this vehicle in October of this year at the Tokyo Motor Show to then be sold in December. While there's no confirmation of this vehicle's arrival in the North American markets, the vehicle will be built on the TNGA platform (on which many production Toyotas are built) so we can't rule out the possibility for certain. One thing's for sure, a vehicle as versatile, fuel-efficient, and stylish as this will be welcomed warmly at Toyota of Clermont!

2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition

Toyota of Clermont's Recap of New Toyota News

When it comes to news in the automotive industry Toyota is always making headlines and waves with new tech, new vehicles, and new initiatives. When it comes to variety, Toyota definitely takes the cake and sometimes it can be difficult to keep up with all the news and information being released every day. Luckily, Toyota of Clermont is here to be your one-stop shop for new Toyota news. Follow along with us and check out the latest stories from our favorite auto manufacturer. 1) 2021 Toyota Sienna Spotted Being Tested Amidst several rumors suggesting that the Toyota Sienna was facing a slow and eventual death, a camouflaged 2021 new Toyota Sienna was spotted being tested out in Death Valley, CA. The current Sienna generation has been around since 2010 and it's high-time we saw a redesign of this beloved mini-van. While we can't discern too much from the spy photos, we can assume that the exterior will see a significant redesign and the interior will likely include new features as well. It will still be front-wheel drive (with the possibility of all-wheel drive option) and there might be a hybrid-option. We can expect to see this new Toyota mini-van arrive at Toyota of Clermont sometime next year. 2) The 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition Has Received a Price A short time ago, Toyota announced the release of the Clermont new Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition. This new limited trim level of the iconic Land Cruiser features things like unique badging, bronze wheels, and the removal of third row seating. When initially released this new ride did not include pricing, but now we know. The Heritage Edition is set to be released with an MSRP of $86,710 as opposed to the assumed $90,000 price tag. 3) The Toyota Crosscamp Road-trippers rejoice! Toyota of Germany has introduced the new Crosscamp modular van. The interior features a sizable living space with a built-in kitchen and sleeping area. There's also an extendable roof and retractable exterior awning. Unfortunately, this one's only available in Germany but it's nice to know something so cool and campy is out there. 4) The 2020 Toyota Supra has Already Been Overclocked Now that the new Toyota Supra has been making its way to Toyota dealerships (it's available now at Toyota of Clermont, in case you haven't seen that infamous burn-out video), it was only a matter of time before people modified this new rendition of a classic. While the Clermont new Toyota Supra's engine clocks in at about 335 horsepower stock, a UK based tuner has upped the ante and as taken the Supra up to 420 horsepower. While the engineering has been tinkered with for more horsepower, there are other potential modifications on the way. 5) 2020 Toyota 86 Hakone Edition Updates The Clermont new Toyota 86 is an awesome sportscar with a need for speed. But, if you're looking for something with a little more aesthetic, the Hakone Edition will be available soon and for only a $2,975 price increase from the $27,850 MSRP. While this limited edition trim level doesn't feature any new engineering, drivers will notice a unique green metallic paint and newly designed wheels.   Make sure to check out our blog here at Toyota of Clermont for all new Toyota news!

New Toyota technology available at Toyota of Clermont.

New Toyota Technology in the Works

As a company, Toyota is always making great strides in the auto industry and beyond. Recent investments in ventures like renewable fuel sources, electronic-drivetrains, and driver-less cars have solidified Toyota as a driver of the future. With everything Toyota has a hand in, it can get difficult to keep track of all the new and different Toyota technology making its way into the world. Luckily, Toyota of Clermont is here with a condensed guide on the most recent Toyota technology so you can stay up to date on all things automotive and Toyota. What's New with Toyota Technology A Solar-Powered Prius The Clermont Toyota Prius made waves as the first-ever hybrid to ever take to the roads. Today, this iconic vehicle has seen a number of feature and technology updates. The newest addition to this timeless hybrid is solar-power tech. In a partnership with Sharp, Toyota has outfitted a Prius Prime plug-in hybrid with 0.03mm thick solar panels. These panels have been affixed to surfaces like the hood, roof, rear windshield, and trunk lid. This new Toyota technology was used in 2016 in a Japan-only release Prius PHV but has since improved and can score the Prius Prime an extra 27 miles on its range. Plus, the solar cells can charge the vehicle as you drive. A Toyota MR2 EV With the return of the Toyota Supra and all its glory, Toyota is poised to release a new rendition on an old-favorite. Many experts speculate that the Clermont Toyota MR2 is due for a return and we're thinking it may be released with EV Toyota technology. There aren't many details surrounding this rumor, it's only speculation at this point. But we're pretty confident in this prediction and believe that EV Toyota technology will have advanced well enough in a few years to make a fully-electric MR2 feasible. We expect it to be released by or after 2024 for about the same price point as the new Supra. A new Hot-Hatch Toyota Yaris Who doesn't love a good hatchback? The Corolla Hatchback has been a hit so far this year and we may be seeing an all-new take on the Clermont Toyota Yaris sooner than we think. The Toyota Yaris Hot-Hatch could make its way to North America for the next model year or two. The new model is likely based on the Yaris GRMN, a Toyota Gazoo Racing design, and will feature both a performance and hybrid option. This new piece of Clermont Toyota technology will likely be available overseas and possibly the U.S. depending on demand. New Toyota Tundra Spotted Photographers recently spotted a camouflaged Toyota Tundra! While it's difficult to discern the finer details of this new truck, we can see a new front bumper design. Rumors are that the new Clermont Toyota Tundra will feature a new hybrid electric drivetrain and achieve close to 450 horsepower with a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 engine. It's likely this new Tundra will be released for the 2020 or 2021 model year. Needless to say, we're excited to see this new Toyota technology make its way to Toyota of Clermont. It'll be here before you know it and you can always find updates right here on our blog! Stay up to date with us and give us a call at (352) 404 - 7000 for more details.
