Toyota of Orlando is here with your weekly news roundup - check out the latest and greatest going on in our world! Toyota develops method to stop catalytic converter theft Did you know that as a Prius owner, you have a higher chance of having your catalytic converter stolen right off of your car? Weird but true. Thefts of this car part have been on the rise over the past few years because hybrid car catalytic converters have more precious metals (palladium, rhodium, and platinum, to be exact) inside of them than other vehicles. This makes them more valuable to steal, dismantle, and sell. However, Toyota is taking steps to stop the theft - they've created a way to covertly mark the catalytic converters so they can be tracked after they're stolen. The markers will be police-approved and 50,000 of them will roll out initially; all owners have to do is contact their local dealership to have one fitted on their car. New 2022 Toyota Land Cruiser spotted New spy photos of the 2022 Toyota Land Cruiser - without camo on - have been leaked, and things are looking good. We can't show it here (sorry, but we'll be sure to let you know when the OFFICIAL photos drop), but it's looking like this new Toyota SUV is sleeker than ever for its big debut. It's reminiscent of a Lexus LX with lean lines, sleek curves, and a powerful presence if that gives you any idea (or you can just Google it). Remember, it's likely that it won't be available in North America so the only way to get your hands on one is if you live overseas. Toyota predicts 70% of sales to be electric by 2030 Big news for green drivers - Toyota is predicting that by 2030, 70% of all of their sales will be electrified with a majority of that number being hybrids. While gasoline models will still be available, they're hoping to make their way toward carbon neutrality by the end of this decade and electric cars, hydrogen cars, and hybrid cars are the way to get there. We're excited to see which new Toyotas make their way into the lineup to help achieve this goal (and don't forget, you can test drive any and all of our eco-friendly new Toyotas today at Toyota of Orlando). Toyota pairs with ENEOS for Woven City We've already filled you in Toyota's Woven City - the city of the future being built over in Japan. However, there's more news on that front. Toyota has officially partnered with ENEOS, a Japanese petroleum company, to build a hydrogen fuel system that will power the city as cleanly as possible. ENEOS is well-versed in this realm - it currently runs 45 hydrogen fueling stations throughout Japan to support hydrogen fuel cell vehicles like the Toyota Mirai. ENEOS plans to install a hydrogen refueling station near the city and produce green hydrogen to further power the city itself. Have questions or want to see our new Toyotas in person? Call us! Toyota of Orlando is open seven days a week at (407) 298-4500. You can also stop by and see us at 3575 Vineland Road, just off I-4 across from the Millenia Mall.

It's a new week at Toyota of Orlando and we've got the scoop on the freshest news in the automotive industry. Check out the latest headlines and call us with any questions you may have (or to set up your test drive). Toyota patents new twin-turbo V8 engine This one is still kind of up in the air. After all, Toyota has largely removed the V8 engine from its lineup and replaced it with more fuel-efficient options, especially in the wake of how popular hybrid and electric cars are becoming. However, last Thursday it was revealed that they just filed a patent for a new twin-turbo V8 engine. The application details a new engine with two turbochargers (also known as superchargers) that are placed on the top of the engine block. This could mean that Toyota is planning a "hot v" engine, one that has very little lag and is actually more efficient for it. It's also going to be more compact, which means it can fit in more passenger cars. We'll keep you posted! New Toyota hydrogen engine in the works Toyota's latest endeavor in the world of green cars is a new internal combustion engine that actually uses hydrogen as fuel. This results in a car that feels and sounds like a traditional gasoline-powered car but one that emits far fewer emissions into the air and is significantly more efficient. Toyota has placed this innovative engine in a Toyota Corolla Hatchback and will be entering said vehicle into the 2021 Super Taikyu 24 Hour Endurance Series from May 21 to 23, 2021 to see how it fares when it comes to the track. Is an electric Toyota Land Cruiser coming? The Orlando Toyota Land Cruiser will officially be retired after this year, but that doesn't mean it's fading from existence - after all, it's an icon of the brand. It's going to be available in other parts of the world and rumor has it that there's a chance it could be all-electric in the coming years. Toyota recently entered into a partnership with BHP, an Australian mining company, and retrofitted a Toyota Land Cruiser with a battery-electric powertrain to see how it fared and whether or not it should be pushed into the consumer market and so far, so good. New Toyota electrified SUVs to be produced in Indiana We mentioned earlier this month that two new Toyota electrified models were headed our way in the upcoming year - two new SUVs, to be exact. However, we weren't given any specifics on what TYPE of vehicles they would be (hybrids, plug-ins, all-electric, etc.). More news has been tacked onto this initial story; Toyota announced that it's investing $803 million into the Indiana plant and adding 1,400 new jobs in order to produce the aforementioned SUVs right here in the states. That's the roundup for this week - if you have questions or want to schedule a test drive for ANY of our new or used cars, call us! We're open seven days a week until 10pm at (407) 298-4500.

It's been a busy week in the world of Toyota and our Orlando Toyota dealership is here with the latest roundup of Toyota news to keep you in the loop. Check it out! Two new SUVs coming: Big news for all your SUV drivers - two new models will be hitting the market before you know it. Rumor has it that Toyota will be retiring the Toyota Sequoia (similarly to how it put the Toyota Land Cruiser out to pasture this year) and introducing two new 8-seater, 3-row SUVs designed for Millenial families that are always on the go. One will be badged as a Lexus, but both will likely be fuel-efficient hybrids and include cool and convenient features like hands-free driving systems and a remote parking feature. Additionally, both will be built right here in the US at the Indiana plant. Spy photos of the new Toyota Land Cruiser emerge: The Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Series may have been retired in the US, but an all-new 300 series is coming to the rest of the world. Spy shots have been taken and reveal that the new interaction of this much-loved classic will a longer and wider front bumper, a rear end that looks similar to the popular Prado model, and a completely redesigned interior cabin that focuses on easy access to infotainment and the instrument cluster. We'll keep you posted as new photos and more information are dropped. Toyota to race combustible hydrogen car: When it comes to going green, Toyota is definitely a front-runner. And now they're taking their technology to the track - reportedly, they'll be racing in the 4-hour Super Taikyu race in Fuji in a vehicle powered by combustible hydrogen. It sounds weird - how do you combust hydrogen like you do gas? We're no engineers, but it is possible and can lend a lot of speed to your car. However, it cuts way back on your fuel efficiency and also emits nitrous oxide, which is a greenhouse gas that hydrogen cars try to cut out of the equation, so we don't see this technology coming to a dealership near you anytime soon. Toyota Sienna Woodland introduced: The Toyota Sienna has always been cooler than the average minivan (hence the Swagger Wagon moniker). However, it's taking cool to an all-new level with a new special edition model that's coming to market in the fall. The Toyota Sienna Woodland special edition comes with standard all-wheel drive and more ground clearance for a more versatile performance. Additionally, it'll still pack a hybrid drivetrain and offer features like 18" wheels, roof racks with crossbars, a 1,500 watt outlet, and two cool new paint colors. Plus, it'll be able to tow up to 3,500 lbs without batting an eye. Stay tuned for more Toyota news and in the meantime, shop our inventory in person!

Big news in the world of green cars - Toyota has officially introduced an all-new electric car concept and it's slated to begin production in Japan and China in the coming year, and *fingers crossed* be up for sale on a worldwide scale by the middle to end of 2022. Meet the all-new Toyota bz4X SUV; Toyota of Orlando has the details! See what the new Toyota bz4X SUV has to offer Toyota has always been committed to clean, green performance. After all, they were the frontrunners for hybrid cars with the introduction of the Toyota Prius back in the early 2000s; they also have introduced numerous other green options to the market, including electric and fuel cell vehicles. Their goal is to expand their lineup to include more than 70 electrified vehicle options (on a global basis) by the end of 2025 and have carbon neutrality by 2050. (This basically means that the amount of carbon emitted in vehicle emissions is balanced with the absorption of carbon from the atmosphere.) Introducing the Toyota bz4X SUV. This new Toyota was developed in a joint endeavor with Subaru (much like the Toyota GR 86) and will be produced under the new Toyota bZ umbrella - bZ stands for beyond zero, as this lineup will include a series of battery-electric vehicles. Even more exciting news has been announced, too - Toyota will be adding trucks to the new lineup of electrified vehicles with both hybrid and BEV options up for grabs. The Toyota bz4X SUV was built on the e-TNGA BEV-dedicated platform. It has a long wheelbase with short overhangs and has a style that's pretty distinctive; it reminds us of an Orlando Toyota RAV4 mixed with a Toyota C-HR with its sharp, diamond-inspired styling. It's featuring a spacious interior with a comfortable, open-concept design; for example, the instrument panel is set low over the steering wheel for better visibility and handling. The touchscreen is large and extends up from the center console, and the steering wheel features a hub for all of your hands-free buttons. All-wheel drive (courtesy of Subaru) will be standard, and it's been speculated that there could be dual motors to power said feature. Shop all of our green cars today at Toyota of Orlando We can't wait for it to arrive, but if you really can't wait - like, you need to get behind the wheel of a green car now - call us. After all, 40% of all alternatively powered vehicles in the U.S. are Toyotas, so you've got plenty of options.

Ok, ok - before you get all excited about our headline, we want to clarify. The Orlando Toyota Land Cruiser is still discontinued after the 2021 model year... in America. In other parts of the world, the new 300 Series model will be introduced to the market. And rumor has it that with this new 300 Series Land Cruiser comes a special edition model - a Gazoo Racing model that's tuned and outfitted with everything you need to get off the pavement. What could this new Toyota SUV have to offer? But wait - isn't the Orlando Toyota Land Cruiser already off-road-ready? It is, very much so, but this new GR model will up the ante when it comes to tackling tough terrain and exploring the unknown. We've got the details - check it out. Supposedly, the new Toyota Land Cruiser will drop its V8 engine (which it's had for years and years) and replace it with a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 engine. It's estimated that this new engine could churn out an impressive 420 horsepower and 434 lb-ft of torque (it's the same engine that's in the current Lexus LS500). However, the engine could also be a diesel 3.3L turbo V6 that offers 309 horsepower and 507 lb-ft of torque. It's rumored that both options will be available in the Gazoo Racing model, but the diesel engine will only offer room for five passengers while the twin-turbo will offer room for seven. This off-road-ready model will also include front and rear locking differential as well as a Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System, so you have automatic adjustment and deactivation of the sway bars. This allows for more precise handling when you're off the pavement, but less body roll when you're on the road. The wheels will also be smaller - 18" versus the prior 20" size. That's all we know for right now and like we said, this off-road-ready Toyota Land Cruiser won't be up for grabs here in America. However, we've got good news - you can get your hands on the Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition right here at Toyota of Orlando NOW. Here are some of the highlights of this capable SUV: Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System Yakima MegaWarrior roof rack A 5.7L V8 engine that offers 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque An 8-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with sequential shift mode and uphill/downhill shift logic A full-time four-wheel-drive system with Active Traction Control, and Torsen limited-slip differential with locking feature A towing capacity of 8,100 lbs Mud and snow rated steel belted radial tires And so much more.

It's finally here - the 2022 Toyota GR 86 has officially been unveiled. It's set to arrive at dealerships across the nation late this year, but our Orlando Toyota dealership has the scoop NOW on what it's going to offer when you can finally slide into the driver's seat. If you noticed, the name is slightly different. Toyota added "GR" to this sports car's moniker, which stands for Gazoo Racing (and it's obvious that this car will be track-ready). However, that's not all that's changed. This Orlando Toyota was completely redesigned for its second generation. Much like the first gen, it was co-designed and developed with Subaru (check out the BRZ - twinsies) and the two automotive powerhouses didn't disappoint when it comes to design, performance, and technology. Here are the basics of what the all-new Toyota GR 86 will offer. A larger engine - the original has been replaced with a 2.4L flat-four. This means increased horsepower (232 hp) and torque (184 lb-ft) for a more exciting performance. (The old model got 205 hp and 156 lb-ft). It's still rear-wheel drive for quick acceleration and is available in both six-speed manual and six-speed automatic transmissions. It gets from 0-62 mph in 6.3 seconds, an improvement from the 7.4 seconds that the prior generation boasted. Dimensions will stay generally the same; the new 2022 Toyota GR 86 will showcase the same low stance that it achieves through its flat-four engine. The wheelbase is slightly longer and the center of gravity is a little lower. The roof and fender panels are now made of aluminum for lower overall weight (and more speed). Torsion rigidity has been increased by about 50%, according to Toyota - this means enhanced handling as well as a more comfortable experience for the driver and passengers. The interior will showcase a 7" digital display in the instrument cluster, as well as an 8" touchscreen interface for the entertainment system. Some models of the new Toyota GR 86 will showcase the new Subaru EyeSight driver-assist technology. (Likely the automatic models.) We can't wait for it to arrive at Toyota of Orlando. For more information about the 2022 Toyota GR 86, call us! We're open seven days a week at (407) 298-4500 and conveniently located just off I-4 near the Millenia Mall at 3575 Vineland Road.
