Also, to meet the diverse needs of Chinese consumers, TMC is displaying the '86' compact rear-wheel-drive sports car designed to maximize driving enjoyment, the 'Welcab' series of vehicles with factory-installed features for the disabled, and several types of environment-friendly vehicles.

At a press conference during the exhibition, TMC President Akio Toyoda said: 'We would like to put smiles on the faces of our Chinese customers with hybrid technology. I want the people of China to be able to experience the beauty of hybrid technology through a hybrid car born in China.'

TMC aims to continue producing ever-better cars—ranging from environment-friendly vehicles to specially equipped vehicles to sports cars—to meet the needs of a broad range of vehicle users in China.
