Engine technology will boost Toyota China sales
Toyota China released two new TwinEngine hybrid versions of the Corolla and Levin in Shanghai.
The joint venture FAW-Toyota hopes to sell 1 million vehicles in 2020.
The TwinEngine technology is endorsed by Chinese actor Zhang Zhen and actress Gao Yuanyuan. The brand's TV commercial also features American singer Taylor Swift and Chinese pianist Li Yundi.
Li Hui, executive deputy general manager of GAC Toyota Motor Co Ltd, said the TwinEngine is the most environment-friendly form of power and that the Camry TwinEngine is now the best-selling hybrid car.
Jiang Jun, general manager at FAW-Toyota, announced that the joint venture is expecting sales to hit 630,000 units this year, and 1 million by 2020.
A total of 1.03 million Toyota branded cars were sold in China last year, 13 percent more than that in 2013.
