Toyota's Geneva Motor Show effort will focus entirely on green technology, with the highlight being the hybrid version of the all-new Yaris.

The Yaris HSD concept previewed here provides a foretaste of a production model that will bring Toyota full hybrid power to the B-segment.

Toyota has not released any further information on its technical composition as yet, but has disclosed that it "incorporates hybrid-specific styling cues and new, forward-looking design elements."

Toyota will also be unveiling the Prius+ at Geneva, which offers seven-seat versatility for the first time in a Prius.

As its name suggests, Prius+ is similar to the Prius v that was unveiled in North America last month and provides significantly more passenger accommodation and load space than its sister hatchback model.
