Toyota is all set to reveal a new hybrid concept at the upcoming Frankfurt motor show in September.The concept uses the same hybrid race technology as in the manufacturer's FIA World Endurance Championship car, which finished in second place at this year's Le Mans 24 Hours race.
Despite persistent rumours regarding a hybrid version of the GT86 sports car, a Toyota spokesperson has confirmed that the concept "isn't anything related" to the GT86. Toyota has promised to deliver more information on the concept in the run up to the Frankfurt show.
The carmaker also has ambitious plans of launching the Camry Hybrid saloon in India very soon. It will benefit from local assembly and will be sold alongside the current 2.4-litre petrol model.
