GAC became the first automobile company in China to use Toyota THS hybrid technology, and both parties have reached an agreement.

Recently, according to the relevant news given by Japanese media, BluE Nexus, a hybrid system company owned by Toyota, reached a new agreement with Guangzhou Automobile Group, agreeing to transfer Toyota's THS hybrid system to Guangzhou Automobile Group. Guangzhou Automobile Group's own brand model 202 1 can launch a new car equipped with Toyota THS hybrid system. In addition, Blue Nexus may share this technology with other domestic automobile brands, such as Geely.

Previously, Blue Nexus has shared hybrid technology with Mazda, Subaru and other car companies. It can be seen that the sharing of technology has become a common thing for Toyota.

The main reason is that Toyota's THS technology patent is about to expire. Sharing this technology with other car companies can expand the scale and reduce the cost. Last year, Toyota announced that it would provide motors, electronic control and other related technologies to major car companies free of charge in the future.

Che Jun's point of view: Guangzhou Automobile Group has been rushing out of the country and going global in recent years. After reaching an agreement with Toyota, they will become the first automobile company in China to use THS technology. In the future, it is believed that GAC will bring more, better and more advanced products to our consumers and drive the domestic automobile industry to make continuous progress.
