PES is a story about Pes, an extraterrestrial being who comes to discover the
value of Earth and the joy of mobility through his unique alien perspectives.
ToyToyota Project: PES Concept:
Human evolution is represented by the history of mobility. Cars bring mobility
to our life, but yet too often, everyone talks about complicated technological
aspects of automobiles rather than just the joy of mobility. TOYOTA has found "
TOY" as the origin of lively and cheerful joy from its own corporate name. Then,
TOYOTA and STUDIO4C, one of the leading Japanese animation studios, have
together created an animation series, PES, that follows a curious alien
exploring the joy of driving and the importance of safety as a part of the
ToyToyota Project aimed at spreading the joy of mobility.
