The Toyota Hybrid X is a hybrid concept built by Toyota's ED² studio in France and first shown at the March 2007 Geneva Motor Show. Toyota claims the design of this concept car points to the future direction of the Toyota Prius. The design of the Toyota Hybrid X is a 5-door hatchback with a fastback-like styling.
According to interior designer Laurent Bouzige, the Hybrid X is supposed to be a very sensory experience, and the ambiance is linked to the passengers' sight, sound, touch, and smell senses. Interior surfaces have a variety of light effects, textures and even fragrance from a perfume diffuser. The drive-by-wire steering pad has a touch screen and there is another screen in the centre of the dashboard to show vehicle information and to set minor controls. The rear seats can each be turned 12 degrees left or right to help passengers look inwards or outwards.
