DIESEL cars with RAIZ engine, almost without electronics sold 0 km. Discover the Toyota FACTORY
Do you know the Toyota factory that still produces vehicles with old diesel engines? Engines that have almost no electronics and easy maintenance?
For a long time, having a diesel car was synonymous with durability, they were reliable, resistant and easy to maintain engines. However, over the years these engines have evolved a lot, becoming even more powerful, even though they now emit fewer pollutants and are much more economical.
However, to reach this level, a lot of electronics were installed in these engines, leaving them all with much more complex and difficult maintenance. It turns out that some cars, especially those that serve humanitarian aid organizations such as the UN or Doctors Without Borders, operate in difficult-to-access locations, where there is great difficulty in obtaining spare parts, quality fuel and even mechanics who understand current engines.
And it was with this in mind, in serving these institutions, that Toyota maintains a production line just for these humanitarian aid organizations. Located in Gibraltar, Toyota Gibraltar Stockholdings specializes in converting vehicles with very simplified mechanics into cars ready to operate in these locations, mainly in Africa.
Around 600 vehicles leave there every month, transformed into ambulances, mobile laboratories, people transport vehicles, etc.
In this video you will learn how this Toyota factory works, as well as learn more about older diesel engines that equip these vehicles, which are mostly Toyota Land Cruiser series 70, Hilux, Prado and RAV4.
