As an extension to the TGR Festival at racing weekends, Toyota will also be involved in E-Sports through racing simulators.

Toyota also took the opportunity to rejuvenate their “All About the Drive” branding platform. New products will feature connectivity and advanced safety, while brand communication will be skewed to reach the younger generation more effectively.
