Where Would Akio Lead Toyota? 2008-02-25 02:22:59 No doubt about it, Toyota
is trailing the right path towards supremacy. The Japanese auto giant will soon be donning the crown for the world’s largest automaker – a title worn by General Motors for quite a long time. The implication of the rise to power is to be meticulous in the choice of a leader. Katsuaki Watanabe, 66, will soon retire. And the yoke of managing a very successful auto giant could be burdened on Akio Toyoda, the grandson of the company’s founder.Where would the 51-year-old heir lead the Japanese auto giant – to bliss or to disgrace?"If I am going to be at the top of the car company, I want to be the owner-chef" - with knowledge not just of its vehicles but their ingredients,” Toyota said in an interview with the International Herald Tribune.

Eco Indicators To Become Standard In All Vehicles 2008-01-13 21:47:16 Toyota intends to make eco indicators standard in all of its vehicles, reports say. Wonder how the indicators work? A Lexus blog explains:The Hybrid Vehicle System Indicator serves roughly the same purpose that a vacuum gauge served - it helps you drive efficiently. But it provides much more information than a simple analog gauge ever could.The systems work differently in different models - for instance, the version in the Prius is different from the version in the Camry hybrid, and they’re both different from the version in the Highlander hybrid. But in spite of those differences, they have the same fundamental purpose - they help maximize driving efficiency.Anchored on the fact that the Hybrid Vehicle System Indicator was a hit, the Japanese automaker plans to make it a standard featur Read more:Indicators
