“The 2025 Veloz Hybrid EV Lintas Nusa journey is a form of our appreciation for Indonesian families. We want to show that Toyota's Hybrid technology is efficient, tough, and relevant in various Indonesian road conditions,” said Jap Ernando Demily, Marketing Director of PT Toyota Astra Motor (TAM) in Mandalika (02/12).

Debuting at the GJAW 2025 event, the Toyota Veloz Hybrid captured the attention of exhibition visitors. The MPV sparked the curiosity of many people.

As a family vehicle, this new Toyota MPV offers comfortable, fun, responsive, and fuel-efficient mobility.

The Toyota Veloz Hybrid is expected to travel for up to 50 days. Its mission is to prove the quality, durability, and reliability of a product.

The travel route itself is quite challenging, starting from Lombok, Bali, and Banyuwangi. It then continues to Bromo, Yogyakarta, Bandung, and Jakarta.

Then the car continues to the island of Sumatra, passing through Palembang, Jambi, Bukittinggi, to Lake Toba.

Meanwhile, the traveling team will explore natural tourism and culinary delights. As a form of cultural diversity, local wisdom, and community lifestyle.
