Bob Carter, Toyota Motor Sales USA Vice President and General Manager, said our man Mike Levine of PickupTrucks.com, the Toyota A-BAT is pending. According to Carter: "We have many priorities at this time, and A-BAT is not one of them."
While the new A-BAT transport the upcoming February Toyota has decided that the project is no surprise. With the sale of cars in general - and pick-ups are particularly affected during the year - the company in a compact hybrid truck would be difficult to justify.
First, he has the A-BAT could be sold as a Scion, but with the "youth" of the mark once again to focus on smaller vehicles (ala the Scion iQ concept, which made his debut at New York Auto Show), a pick-up is unlike the rest of the route.
"The market has deteriorated dramatically in the last 12 months." Pickuptrucks.com Carter said: "We always have priority - in economic terms or times of recession - that's our plan. [At the time of the A-BAT is] on the platform."
