IAA Transportation 2026: Toyota Embraces Freedom of Choice in Powertrains

At IAA Transportation 2026, Toyota Professional will showcase a broad range of commercial vehicles, building on its “Multi-Pathway” strategy. Customers can choose the powertrain that best suits their specific application. With the Proace City, Proace, Proace Max, and Hilux, the lineup covers key commercial needs. Internal combustion engines and battery-electric variants are available in all four segments.

The Proace City combines compact dimensions with versatile cargo space solutions and is designed primarily for businesses operating in urban environments. The Proace is available in various lengths, body styles, and powertrain options, making it a versatile all-rounder. For larger transport tasks, the Proace Max is designed with high payloads, a large cargo volume, and a wide range of body options.

The Hilux rounds out the lineup as an off-road pickup truck. Its powertrain options range from a diesel engine with 48-volt mild-hybrid technology to a battery-electric version. Toyota sees this as an opportunity to address different usage profiles with tailored solutions. (aum)
