Toyota will launch a new sub-brand in China in 2015, it will be positioned under the Guangzhou-Toyota joint venture. The new sub-brand will be called Lingzhi (领志) in Chinese and Leahead in English. Leahead stands for ‘Leap Ahead’. The brand will focus on cheap electric cars aimed at young and hip car buyers in China.
The Leahead brand was previewed at the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show when Toyota launched this kinky yellow concept car, at the time without a name, previewing a hip electric car for hipsters. The first Leahead production car will debut on the 2015 Guangzhou Auto Show in November next year, likely based on the Toyota Yaris L that is manufactured in China by Guangzhou-Toyota. No word yet on price but an EV of that size won’t go for less than 150.000 yuan.

So now we have the Ranz of FAW Toyota in the north, and the Leahead of GAC Toyota in the south. Redundant but fair…..
Car dealers are plenty in number and all you need to do is find out the
best car dealers in your city who will be able to
help you in buying the best cars. The app
appears to work identically in Android and i – OS (I used
it both on my Samsung phone and my i – Pad Air) and it’s very
straightforward. It could be more power or performance that you want, or it could
simply be that you want nice heated leather seats.
