80 Corolla TS hybrids are provided to cycling teams at the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
As a partner of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Toyota supplies all official vehicles. This includes support cars during road cycling events. In the Tour de France, professional teams are free to choose their vehicles and decorate them as they wish. This year, we saw pink Cadillac LYRIQs, which were certainly favorites among the public of the grand loop.
Toyota puts hybrids at the front of the pack
No fancy designs for the Olympic Games, with all nations treated equally. The same car for everyone, a Corolla TS hybrid decorated in the same way. However, during the previous Tokyo 2020 Games, of which Toyota was also a partner, the manufacturer noticed that teams personalized their vehicles with various small accessories in the colors of their national flags to facilitate identification. For Paris 2024, all vehicles have been fitted directly with national flags on multiple body locations.
The stickers located on the mirror shells and on the front and rear faces allow identification of the nation, thus enhancing the visibility of the vehicles among the athletes in the pack. This will also be an opportunity for the French public to discover this Touring Sport variant of the Corolla.
