Toyota Showcases Retrofit Upgrades To Classic Models such as AE 86 Trueno and Levin, showcasing hydrogen power and EV conversions. Toyota President, Akio Toyoda, has promised to ‘Leave no Car Lovers Behind’.
Toyota has apparently patented a simulated manual gearbox and clutch mechanism for new electric cars – is the fake manual gearbox rubbish or revolutionary? Could it be an entirely redundant system or something that makes enthusiasts like me want to drive electric cars?
