NCE Toyota Prius Convertible

June 4, 2008 | CATEGORIES: Toyota

The company that made this hybrid Toyota Prius convertible is called Newport Convertible Engineering [NCE]. Hybrid cars aren’t very well designed, and the guys from NCE thought they could improve this car a lot by making it convertible and adding some cool elements. Even though a lot of people don’t think this car looks too great it’s surely an improvement from the stock car and it looks really well for a hybrid car. You could buy used hybrid cars and try to make them convertible like this one. The car’s tail lights were modified and the interior is fully covered with white. Hybrid cars will be really popular in the future and if you buy a Toyota Prius you could go wild and modify it as you wish. I’ve heard a lot of bad comments about this car but I’m pretty sure it’s a lot better than its stock version.

Toyota Matrix Rally Sport Concept

A couple of months ago, at the Auto Show from Los Angeles, Toyota revealed their latest concept, the new Matrix Rally Sport. With a wide body kit the car looks like a strong, muscle car. The guys from Toyota installed 19″ OZ rims painted in white that add an interesting contrast to the car’s look. This car is equipped with a 2.4L engine that has 4 cylinders, almost the same as engines that equip Mazda 3 cars. With this engine the car should be really fast for it’s size and it should have an incredible acceleration. The car’s design looks really impressive and we could see it go into production in 2009. Toyota Kluger also received a facelift in 2007 and it’s one of the most sold japanese 4×4 cars in this year and day by day Toyota is getting closer to General Motors, the company that sells most cars in the whole world.
