Toyota FT-HS Concept review

        The concept (cars on display, not mass production) that Toyota demonstrated atVietnam Motorshow 2008 captured the attention of most visitors. Highlights FTHSconcept is modern design with clean lines typical of Toyota. Unveiled at the Detroit showtakes place in January 1 / 2007, FTHS the Japanese manufacturer is defined as "the combination of speed, features and environmentally friendly." Toyota's research groupbased in California cars in the future interpretation, which FTHS representatives, not justspeed but also entertaining, associated with natural human and social responsibility.

        J-factor variable factors FTHS different matter but there are highlights such as longnarrow headlamps, the soft curves and less compact. In language, "Vibrant Clarity" tobring to FTHS seem exciting when kicking tail up, tail lights almost angular separation andthe type of spacecraft. The dynamics also are "resonant" by the wheels 21 inch 5-spokedesign similarities. FTHS almost no smell. The windscreen is prolonged upward anddownward immediately straighten the tail to reduce wind resistance. Axis B is eliminatedwhile the C axis of the body hidden under glass FTHS that is consistent from front to back. Two mirrors are stylized to blend in with the overall structure.

        The engine is on FTHS hybrid, combining gasoline and electric. Capacity is 3.5 litergasoline engine V6, maximum capacity of 292 horsepower while the electric motor power197 kW. Two sources of this energy gives FTHS maximum capacity of 400 kW,equivalent to the GS450h. But thanks to lighter FTHS should have more features. The ability to accelerate to 100 km / h from the starting base is only 4 seconds, one secondfaster than the GS450h.
