Watching Toyota work is like watching a developing storm. At first you're not sure where it’s going, what it’s going to do – or how big it will be. Then, in what seems like a moment but is really quite a long time, the storm gathers up its clouds, sets out on a destination and pours rain or snow on the heads of the people living in one unlucky region. Sort of like how some other carmakers feel when they watch the inexorable progress Toyota has made over the past 10 years. And recently, whether it’s been the Scion brand, hybrid advancement, or Lexus – the results have been what Toyota expected – and what competitors feared.
Now they’re at it again with the Toyota FT-SX Concept – a not-quite-ready-for-prime-time concept vehicle that trumpets Toyota’s intention to build cars that appeal to the baby boomer generation as they age. The FT-SX, while strictly a concept, is a strong indication of what's to come from the automaker that seems to always have the market momentum.
