Gateshead has several major roads passing through it, including the A184 connecting the town to Sunderland and the A1 connecting to Edinburgh and London. The Millennium Bridge, a cyclist and pedestrian tilt bridge between Gateshead arts quarter and Newcastle's Quayside, is powered by enough electric motors to run more than eight Ford Focus cars. A clean air zone was introduced in the town in early 2023, so some vehicles have to pay to drive through the area.

A Clean Air Zone (CAZ) operates in Gateshead to improve air quality and specifically reduce public exposure to nitrogen dioxide, a pollutant produced by traditional combustion engines. This goal is achieved by encouraging the use of cleaner vehicles, such as EVs, and restricting high-pollution vehicles. Many CAZs charge drivers for entering them, though some are non-charging. Before driving in Gateshead, it's worth checking online whether you will have to pay for driving through the zone.

Toyota is the world's largest car manufacturer, famous for the reliability of its vehicles, from the classic Hilux pickup truck to more recent electrified models like the RAV4 Plug-in, which is the most satisfying new car to own in 2023, according to Which?.

Data shows that 20 years after they were sold, 80% of Toyota cars are still on the road. It's hardly surprising that Toyota earned the title of 'Most Reliable Car Brand' at the 2023 Fleet News FN50 Awards. The brand is also cheap to maintain, as our comparison of Toyota and Ford demonstrates.

Toyota's commitment to green innovation, which has seen the development of numerous electric models, extends beyond passenger cars to the racetrack - in 2021, its racing division introduced the GR10 Hybrid Hypercar to compete in the FIA World Endurance Championship.
