Hence when coming up with a name for the centre, Toyota Indonesia decided to use the letter ‘X’ as a means to include all forms of eco-friendly cars and also leave a possibility to include any new electrification technology that will come up in the future.

For now, the xEV Centre has only opened its doors to Phase One with Phase Two and Three planned for the future. Phase One of the centre will focus on presenting electrification in an easy-to-learn format.

There isn’t a time in memory that doesn’t involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle women’s magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
