With more than 50 vehicles on its stand at the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show, Toyota is the most active manufacturer at Asia’s most important automotive event.
Besides production cars, the Japanese company has showcased several concept vehicles, including the weird-looking Fun-Vii, but, if you ask us, there’s only one show-stopper in their lineup, and that’s the FT-HT Yuejia.

Designed specifically for the Chinese market, the FT-HT Yuejia concept sports a rather unique design, although the front fascia is somewhat similar to what we’ve seen on a few production cars as well. Developed to appeal to young Chinese consumers, the FT-HT provides cabin space for six people thanks to its three rows of two individuals seating configuration and, as you already might have guessed, it’s powered by a hybrid powertrain.

Toyota claims a production version will be built in the future, but we have enough reasons to doubt that the FT-HT will be taken to the assembly line in concept form.
