The facia of the Toyota FT-3e adopts the company's latest design language, with the electric concept featuring a long wheelbase and short overhangs at the front and rear.

The FT-3e’s bonnet also adopts two large vents, though it’s not known what they are cooling in the electric SUV’s front end.

At the rear, the FT-3e adopts a coupe-esque back window which aggressively slopes downwards towards the boot lid – while a pair of C-pillar extensions protrude from the back window.

Inside, Toyota’s concept SUV is fitted with a unique steering wheel with just one spoke (located at the bottom), allowing a clearer view of the digital dash mounted to the steering column.
