Toyota Presents An AR App To Let Customers See Through The Hybrid Models

With the help of Brandwith agency, Toyota showrooms use augmented reality to let customers experience inside cars.

The new Toyota Hybrid AR application uses Augmented Reality technology and objective recognition software to overlay graphics of the inner workings of the Hybrid drivetrain onto physical vehicles, helping customers to gain a better understanding of how the system works.

Brandwidth, the digital agency which specialises in providing practical innovation,has announced the launch of a new Augmented Reality experience for Toyota GB, which enables customers to ‘see inside’ the carmaker’s C-HR model.

The mobile app is compatible with iPad which will be used in Toyota’s showrooms as well as at other locations and brings the different drive states of the vehicle, showing how the various elements of the drivetrain interact with each other. By tapping on a drive state, such as ‘deceleration’ or ‘heavy acceleration’, customers can see which parts of the hybrid system are in use and how energy is passed between them.

The 3D experience also features a number of ‘hotspots’ which, when clicked on, enable customers to get in-depth information on key features of the system, such as the motor, battery and fuel tank.

They worked with Toyota to develop the Hybrid AR app as part of an ongoing drive to educate the brand’s customers on hybrid technology and the benefits it offers.

The digital app currently supports the Toyota C-HR model, alongside with all colors. Also check our brand new best automotive marketing agencies in Canada directory if you’re looking for one.
