Often our Toyota of Plano team is asked, “why buy a Toyota over another brand”? The simple answer is Toyota creates better vehicles than our competition. We’ve put together a list that proves why Toyota vehicles are better than the competitions’. Ultimately, we believe that Toyota’s strength lies in their vehicles residual and resale value, durability, variety, innovative safety features and technology, and the company's commitment to domestic manufacturing - an extension of their commitment to their customers.
1. Toyota Resale and Residual Value:
Toyota has time and time again been recognized for offering vehicles that maintain a higher resale and residual value. Simply put, Toyota vehicles are a good investment. In fact, Toyotas are known for having a remarkably durable line up of vehicles and relatively affordable maintenance on aging vehicles. These two factors have allowed Toyota models to depreciate at a slower rate than other vehicles.
2. Toyota Durability:
Let’s discuss the durability of Toyota vehicles. Polk recently released findings indicating that around 80% of Toyota vehicles sold twenty years ago are still on the road today - this speaks volumes to the superior quality and reliability of these vehicles. To put these numbers into perspective, according to Autotrader, the average lifespan for vehicles on the road today is around 11 to 12 years - Toyotas last for almost 10 years longer than the average vehicle.
3. Toyota Variety:
Variety is something Toyota excels in. Our extensive lineup of vehicles includes everything from top rated electric and hybrid cars to rugged vehicles that support a more active lifestyle. Plus, Toyota has the largest selection of AWD and 4WD on the market. So when you choose Toyota of Plano, one of Toyota's flagship dealers, you can be confident that you will have an extensive selection of new and certified pre-owned Toyota vehicles, with plenty of options that fit your lifestyle.
4. Toyota Safety:
Safety has been a top priority for our Toyota engineers since day one. In 2021, Toyota publicly announced that they spend over $1 million, every hour, towards advancing safety technologies and innovation globally. This investment has allowed the company to gain access to the most novel and advanced technologies of all manufacturers in the industry, and it has allowed Toyota to receive top safety ratings annually.
5. Toyota is American Made:
As of 2021, Toyota employs over 32,000 people across the United States. From design to assembly, Toyota facilities have provided thousands of jobs to individuals across the country. In addition to employing one of the largest workforces in the US, Toyota owns 14 manufacturing plants in North America. This has allowed Toyota to earn its spot as a competitor among domestic brands, especially those brands that pride themselves on being built for the American people, by American people. In fact, Toyota now rivals and even outranks a number of domestic brands in the total number of American sourced and manufactured vehicles.
6. Toyota is Customer Focused:
In 1965, Toyota began developing vehicles that were designed to meet the demands of the American automotive market. This is when Toyota truly became a player in the US automotive market, and since Toyota recognized the importance of a customer centric business model, they have never looked back. To this day, everything from design decisions to vehicle practicality is designed with the customer in mind.
Toyota’s commitment to manufacturing more durable vehicles with customers' lifestyles in mind, along with superior customer care, has allowed Toyota of Plano to create fiercely loyal customer relationships.
