Toyota Teases 'Something New,' Likely Another SUV

The Breakdown:

• Toyota is teasing a mysterious new model.
• It looks like a new SUV with a squared-off styling.
• It could be one of the brand’s upcoming three-row electric SUVs it plans to build in the United States.  

Toyota released a teaser for a new vehicle, publishing a single image of the mystery model on its social media pages. It appears to be a larger SUV that could be one of the brand’s upcoming three-row electric models—but it's still unclear.

The image shows the rear silhouette of an SUV, which features a full-width taillight bar that appears to wrap around the sides. You can also see the roof rails and shark-fin antennas.  

 

Toyota provided no information about the teaser other than saying, "Something new is on the horizon." It has a boxy appearance with wide fenders, giving off Land Cruiser vibes.  

Toyota has already confirmed it has "plans to produce two all-new, three-row electric SUVs in the US." The automaker will build both at its Kentucky facility. This could be one of those models.

Motor1’s Take: This is likely one of Toyota’s new three-row electric SUVs. Toyota’s lineup is already full of high-riding models, but it lacks an electric rival to the Kia EV9, as the brand has been slow to launch new battery-electric vehicles. EVs now face an uncertain future in America, but that’s not stopping Toyota.
