The optional solar panel in the current generation of the Prius Plug-in Hybrid underlines Toyota's technological progress in the field of sustainable mobility and is a small building block in the implementation of the Toyota Environmental Challenge 2050. The solar roof has a long tradition in the Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid, as this technology was already available in the previous generation. There, the solar cells generate energy for the fans of the air conditioning system and thus ensure a noticeable reduction in the interior temperature even in hot weather before the start. In Japan, the car manufacturer is already testing the use of solar cells on other parts of the body, such as the hood or the tailgate. This would make it possible to use the power of the sun even more extensively in the future.

18 March 2022 53 Views

Animated by a 580 horsepower V8 engine, they will speed along on 21-inch wheels, the largest sizes within this range. The hood of the Ghibli, already considered one of the most beautiful sedans ever, will boast two supplementary air vents, which relieve the heat whilst bustling a gritty roar. The lateral air vents, on the other hand, are bordered in red and wield the Trofeo name. The interiors are to be wrapped in full-grain Pieno Fiore natural leather and, just like the exteriors, they will boast 100% carbon-fibre inserts: Ghibli and Quattroporte in their Sunday best. Even the infotainment is new: a processor that’s four times as powerful, screen resolution that’s ten times better and a memory with twice the capacity of the previous version. This new system, featuring a high-resolution screen similar to a tablet, will render the user experience much more enjoyable, complete and customisable. The Italian flag will embellish the central pillar and, for their official launch, the Quattroporte model will be green, white Levante and red Ghibli. Because these superheroes are Made in Italy. Furthermore, Levante Trofeo, has been restyled with new rear lights, a new infotainment system and new design features. The Trofeo collection is not just about innovation for Maserati; it is about surpassing preconceptions and expectations. Superlative in every way, Trofeo redefines what a sedan and a SUV can be.
