Toyota FT-AC is undoubtedly the best thing that one could have seen from the Japanese manufacturer in last few months. Big, bold and all new, Future Toyota Adventure Concept (FT-AC) is exclusive to the North American market. This car will be made to take on rough roads in your weekend getaways and more than that, it will record everything for you through the infrared cameras on its wind mirrors. These are detachable and will surely help you socialize in an even better way. The footage is actually stored on Toyota cloud while buyers can also choose to live stream all the action.

The fog lights from the car can be used on a bicycle and simultaneously, they can act as camping lights too. The aggressive design lines make Toyota FT-AC a great concept as something that looks and behaves tough is actually the need of time for adventure lovers. For the first set of production variants, Toyota will focus on petrol engines with all wheel drive-train while hybrid will be introduced later in the vehicle life cycle for sure. Toyota FT-ACThe concept versions are highly glamorized while one can expect decent amount of equipment transfer to the production version. Toyota may offer standard cameras as stock while fancy options could make their way as options in the US market. Like most other cars from this segment, The FT-AC is expected to carry loads of safety features on its top spec variant. Toyota India is not focusing on any new product currently as they have two dominating UVs in the company lineup. Innova Crysta sells like hotcakes every month while all new Fortuner is even the best selling SUV of its segment.
