Toyota Hi-CT Concept

The Toyota Hi-CT is a small hybrid car concept with 3,330m x 1,695mm x 1,780mm dimensions. It uses plug-in hybrid technology, allowing it to be charged with an external power source. Power from the on-board battery can also be used to power devices through an on board 100V AC socket.

Looks like it dropped on us from the future, but rather boring at the same time… most of the concepts at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show were of this genre. Apparently everything started going this way in the past few years, boring “green” concepts that looked pretty much the same – small and light with tiny engines or motors.

More photos after the jump.

    maybe Japanese are ready for this concept in future rather than conventional cars…their citys must be over populated and public transport are superb,so a tiny car will do…

    “boring “green” concepts that looked pretty much the same – small and light with tiny engines or motors”

    For a minute there I thought you sounded absolutely American, Paul :p I agree it’s pretty boring though, unless they can add 2 more wheels at the back and extend the back portion a little. That will make it look like a cab-over truck design :p
