Toyota is bringing an electric sports car concept to the Japan Mobility Show

Toyota has given us a glimpse of the FT-Se ahead of its full debut later this month. Oh, and there’s a crossover too

Published: 16 Oct 2023

Toyota has announced that its booth at the upcoming Japan Mobility Show will be called “Let's Change the Future of Cars - Find Your Future”. Right.

If we’re honest that’s completely meaningless, but Toyota has also let slip that an all-electric sports car concept will be shown for the first time at said booth. Now it has our attention.

We don’t know that much about the FT-Se just yet, but that rear three-quarter shot looks very promising indeed. There are GR badges too, and Gazoo Racing is on one heck of a roll with its Le Mans successes, the GR Yaris, GR Corolla and GR86

Toyota says this is a ‘high-performance sports BEV’ and that it could be "one of the options for sports cars in the carbon-neutral era".

There’s a little look at the cockpit too, where we can see a racey square steering wheel, digital dial displays and a McLaren-style portrait infotainment screen. We’re also told there’s kneepads to protect your legs "from G-forces during driving".

Oh, and there’ll be an all-electric crossover called the FT-3e on Toyota’s stand too, but do you really care about that when there’s a new sports car in the works?
