On the back of digitization, data and decarbonisation, Toyota Motor is in the process of morphing from auto manufacturer to ecosystem firm. While it is well known that the company has entered new businesses and services in recent years, the possibilities created with its new ecosystem approach are more than just the sum of the individual parts.
