Toyota-led Consortium Secures UK Government Funding
A consortium led by Toyota Manufacturing UK (TMUK) has secured funding from the UK Government's DRIVE35 programme for a micromobility feasibility study.
The study will evaluate the feasibility of a lightweight battery electric vehicle (BEV) prototype in the L6e category, supporting the development of zero emission technologies and new mobility concepts.
As European cities transition to low-carbon environments, this project demonstrates Toyota's commitment to next-generation mobility solutions, aiming to improve understanding of urban population needs and accelerate the shift to zero tailpipe emission transport.
