Toyota Racing unveils Le Mans 2012 plans with LMP1 hybrid racer

The new team, which is based at Toyota Motorsport  (TMG)  in Cologne, Germany, will make its race debut on 5 May in the Six Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, the second round of the FIA World Endurance Championship.

Toyota Racing intends to enter two TS030 Hybrid cars in the subsequent Le Mans 24 Hours (16-17 June). Participation in further rounds is yet to be confirmed. The TS030 Hybrid is Toyota’s successor to the iconic TS010 and TS020 cars which participated at Le Mans with podium success during the 1990s, with TS an acronym for Toyota Sport.

Toyota is the first manufacturer to confirm its participation in the FIA World Endurance Championship using a hybrid system, emphasising the pioneering approach to this technology which has seen more than 3.5 million Toyota hybrid vehicles sold worldwide.

In 2009, second-generation Yaris came second. Last year, the 2.0-litre diesel Avensis placed an impressive fourth. Last week, it was time for all new Yaris to take its turn in the economy driving event of the year, the ALD Automotive/Shell FuelSave MPG Marathon – but how did it fare?

Well, as you’d expect, Toyota’s brand new supermini excelled, achieving 72.29mpg. This impressive result marks a 22.7 per cent improvement on the official combined figure, making it the best and also the most improved mpg figure in its class (passenger cars powered by petrol with CO2 emissions of 120g/km or less). But what more would you expect from Peak Performance’s James Sutherland and Richard Hill, the duo that drove Yaris to near-victory in 2009?

Yaris wasn’t the only contender from Toyota: Prius, a familiar face at the MPG Marathon, also made an appearance. Run by AA Drivetech, it too did exceptionally well, also achieving a best-in-class mpg figure and just falling shy of the most improved in class figure.
