A Toyota "Super SUV" for Superman?

There's a new SUPERMAN movie is coming out this week, the first feature for the new DC Studios' cinematic universe. Toyota invited me to attend the movie's premiere because Lois Lane's daily driver in the movie is the revamped 2026 Toyota BZ, which they wrapped with a full Superman theme for the premiere's red carpet. Toyota specifically asked us, as guests, not to write an article, so I made a silly Reel instead for my IG and ClubLexus' facebook page --

lol I guess the marketing department really tried, but its really hard to make Toyota look cool.

BMWs and now astons in the bond films are probably my favorite

Sounds like a fun event. Met any celebs?

Car will sell extremely well. The Q is really on production keeping up with demand.

Saw Superman today. Toyota clearly markets BEV logo…then the bZ runs out of juice….and then Lois gets picked up in an all new RAV4 hybrid….and they clearly market the HEV logo

Yes just watched superman, disappointed that they didn't drive the BZ. I guess it might have been a shot done after the movie have finished production to place the "in-move advert" .
