Toyota is a brand that needs no introduction, with its track record of producing some of the most reliable and durable vehicles on the planet. While Toyota has put an end to models like the FJ Cruiser, Solara, Celica, and Soarer, there are still a bunch of other cool models to look forward to in the coming year.
Toyota's upcoming lineup consists of everything from cars and SUVs to minivans and pickup trucks. With the Japanese automaker’s drive for a more sustainable environment, you might want to keep an eye on its hybrid and fully electric models.
