Making their world premiere at the 12th Beijing International Automotive Exhibition are two new concept models from Toyota called Dear Qin. The design studies are for a compact size five-door hatchback and a four-door sedan.

What you should know about the Dear Qin project cars is that they preview a new global compact model series from Toyota that will be launched onto the market sometime next year.

Toyota says that the two concepts tease a new design language that aims “to attract more people to the user base”, something that is in line with the company’s recently announced strategic plan that calls for the development of new vehicles that are more appealing both in terms of styling and handling.
