Toyota is famous for its well-built Hybrid cars in the world and now this Japanese auto maker has agreed a deal with BMW to employ an entire line-up of transverse diesel engines on a range of dissimilar podiums.

At initial stages, Toyota Verso 1.6 D-4D is expected to be merged in this agreement, which uses a 109bhp  engine as used in the MINI Cooper D. It is very helpful unit in order to cut its CO2 emissions without upsetting performance. However on the instigation of the new Verso, Vice President for European R&D confirmed that Toyota is already making the models capable of using these engines, including the Auris hatchback and estate models plus the RAV4 crossover as well.

This deal is extensive as several platforms have already been arranged and this arrangement open up the opportunity for many other BMW-powered cars, while the more powerful engines as 2.0 Litre units are also under consideration. These engines are set to be progressively reinstated in the existing models, and will help increase sales for the Toyota made vehicles in Europe where buyers are still doubtful about the benefits of petrol powered Hybrid cars.

Best performing model in the range is Auris as presently existing models and it is currently the fifth best-selling hatchback in the exceedingly aggressive and competitive C-segment, where cars like the VW Golf and Ford Focus are ready to throw any competition out of the market. However according to president of R&D Europe, the terrible information for sportier Toyotas GT 86 enthusiasts is that the GT 86 Coupe was deteriorating behind its sales targets.

This deprived performance is building uncertainties about whether to build up a more prevailing version, and Killmann said, “A faster version of GT86 would be at the top of the list of people’s demand, but just as the Cabriolet and based on current sales situation, it is tough to give good reason for a business case to press on either model into production.” So, is Toyota trying to get help from BMW to improve its sales in the European markets?
