Toyota close to putting A-BAT concept in production
Jim Lentz, Toyota’ s president of sales in the U.S., said that the automaker is one step closer to putting the A-BAT Concept into production. However, that does not mean Toyota has made a final decision to bring the A-BAT to the roads - suppliers have been simply asked to make bids on making parts for the pickup.

“This is a common next step in evaluating cost parameters on promising concepts, but it does not imply a commitment to it yet,” said another senior Toyota exec.
