Fast Technology reported on June 29 that Toyota Motor recently held a GR carnival in Shanghai and announced that it would introduce GR Yaris to China.

During the carnival, as the chief test driver of Toyota, Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda also drove his own GR Yaris Rally1 HYBRID champion car and performed a difficult drift show on the track, which attracted the onlookers to exclaim.

In addition to the performance, some bloggers broke more fierce news: Akio Toyoda came to China this time, and there is a major task, that is, to promote the localization of Lexus, but unlike the joint venture domestic production, Lexus is very likely to follow Tesla's example and take the route of "wholly owned domestic production".

At the same time, the blogger also said: Lexus does not rule out the use of Huawei as a component supplier; More Chinese automakers are entering the Japanese market, such as BYD, Great Wall, Geely (including Volvo), and so on.

It is worth mentioning that Guangfeng Technology Day was held in Nansha, Guangzhou today, and GAC Toyota focused on displaying a number of intelligent and electrified latest technologies and future planning layouts, including the disclosure of cooperation with Huawei.

As early as December 2021, Toyota and Huawei HMS for Car officially confirmed the partnership, and in December 2022, the software developed by Huawei was officially delivered, and the model was officially launched in March last year.

Since March this year, Toyota's second-generation models equipped with Huawei's development system have been launched one after another, including a total of 14 models made in China and imported, including the new generation Camry and the new Highlander.
