Toyota is previewing a Woodland family of adventure-ready concepts at the 2026 SEMA Show, dressing electrified and family-focused models in a common Horizon Blue livery and off-road hardware intended to move them beyond paved roads.

The Toyota Motor North America division revealed the Woodland Vision series ahead of SEMA’s official dates, November 3-6, 2026. The concepts include reworked versions of the RAV4, Grand Highlander, Sienna, bZ and Crown Signia, each fitted with lift kits, large over-fenders, rugged satin-black wheels, All-Terrain tires, two-tone roof and hood treatments, roof racks and cross bars.

From paint to purpose

CALTY Design Research led the visual program, unifying the group with a single Horizon Blue paint inspired by Toyota hues from the 1960s used on the Stout, Crown and Corona. Toyota says the Woodland concepts “reimagine how a variety of electrified and family-focused vehicles can be equipped for life beyond the pavement,” and the individual show cars underline that premise by pairing exterior upgrades with model-specific intent.

The RAV4 Woodland Plug-in Hybrid Concept and the Sienna Woodland Concept emphasize an increasingly adventurous role for Toyota’s family- and electrified-vehicle lineup, while the Woodland bZ Concept brings the package into Toyota’s dedicated battery-electric range. The Grand Highlander Woodland Concept and the Crown Signia Woodland Concept are presented as exercises in refinement and versatility for larger, more comfort-oriented models.

Alongside the Woodland series, Toyota previewed a separate Snowhunter family of track-equipped concepts tailored for deep-snow travel, comprising Tundra, Tacoma, 4Runner, Land Cruiser and Sequoia variants. A GT-S Performance Concept—Toyota’s take on the Crown Signia as a grand touring machine—was also shown among the brand’s SEMA builds.

TMNA has been active this year beyond show concepts, rolling out 2027 model-year updates for vehicles including the Camry, Corolla Cross and a Grand Highlander that recently received its own Woodland Edition. The division also announced Toyota Battery Center of North America in Saline, Michigan, highlighted Mazda Toyota Manufacturing hitting a one-million vehicle milestone and noted its claim of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series Manufacturer’s Championship—the fourth such title in Toyota’s history.

“United by a shared design language and a common spirit of exploration, the Woodland concepts imagine a future where more vehicles are ready to leave the pavement behind and make the journey itself part of the story,” the company said in its release.

Toyota will display the Woodland and Snowhunter concepts at the Las Vegas SEMA Show; the manufacturer positioned the series as a design and lifestyle statement rather than production announcements, using the event to illustrate how electrified and family vehicles can be accessorized for outdoor use.
