Toyota RND Concept teased – what could it be?

210115toyota

Toyota has teased the RND Concept ahead of its world debut in the UK on January 26. Few teasers in motordom are more teasing than this, as so little has been divulged that we really haven’t a clue as to what it could be.

Here are some of Toyota’s teasing phrases: “changing the face of motoring within weeks,” “radical shift in direction,” “fun-to-drive” and “having the potential to transform the look of every vehicle on the road.” Our appetites couldn’t be more whetted.

Plus, this study won’t be far from reality, as Toyota says fast-track development has secured manufacturing and product supply, as well as fixed pricing at a level that will make it “accessible to the widest possible market.”

“Full details of the RND Concept will be announced next week, but ahead of the official unveiling I can say that this is something we are proud of and that will make a valuable contribution to the world we live in,” said Toyota GB president Matt Harrison. What do you think it could be, guys?

While most dream of the future, Jonathan Tan dreams of the past, although he's never been there. Fantasises much too often about cruising down Treacher Road (Jalan Sultan Ismail) in a Triumph Stag that actually works, and hopes this stint here will snap him back to present reality.

  • I know this sounds stupid but the teaser looks like an image of the air-con vent to me, and the red “button” looks like a start-stop button. Lol!

      When there is something new (e.g. Hybrid Synergy Drive) from Toyota, that is REAL THING. Not the “awesome” punch CVT with “Betul2 Onz”.

          This paulnut has nothing to do but just keep on dreaming I have a black color saga. What’s wrong with you? If you can’t afford my Toyota, work harder then!!

          If I have a Proton, I can give it to you for free, since you so addicted to it.

          No junk (e.g. Proton) allowed in my house. Junk always attract pests (e.g. rats and paulnut)

        Even if Toyota comes out with the best hybrid solution, we Malaysian will not be able to enjoy them, as once Malaysians enjoyed Prius/PriusC when the petrol price was high in the past. If you are truly a Toyota supporter, write a letter to Toyota HQ and ask them to consider setting up an assembly partnership (Mercedes Benz) or assembly plant in Malaysia (Honda), only then, Malaysian will appreciate Toyota brand again. Else, it is only a waste of energy defending for them.

      What junk is this? Our Proton is far more advanced than this junk. Thank you Malaysian Government for giving us good Proton cars to drive. They are safe and good.

      • I know you’re trying to be sarcastic and trying to get people to hate proton and downvote you. But this is pure childishness. Grow up!
