Toyota’s Senior Vice President for Automotive Operations Bob Carter says the Japanese automaker, which has long been known for safety, reliability and value, wants to inject a little emotion into its new designs and make cars that ‘are fun to drive’ and have ‘a little more sizzle.’ Carter says the FT-1 sports concept car it unveiled at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show is ‘our vision of what a tough sports car should look like in the future.’ Separately, Carter says the weaker Yen will only have a small impact on margins since 70% of Toyota’s cars for the U.S. market are produced in North America.
