Our take
The next step in Toyota's continued global growth, Toyota Connected Europe is extending the Toyota Connected family, tailoring its products and services specifically to the European market. This includes Toyota's Mobility Service Platform (MSPF), a cloud-based digital ecosystem that provides the tools necessary in developing mobility-as-a-service products. The market for this is immense and growing rapidly, and is projected to be worth $750 billion globally by 2030.
In line with the rest of the world, European approaches to mobility are continuing to evolve, with the normalisation of electric vehicle charging grids and ridesharing services as an example. Toyota Connected is working to develop and scale the power of its products to meet this ever-growing demand in the European market.
