Here at Toyota of Orlando, we always get excited about the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) show. It takes place in Las Vegas at the convention center every year and allows automotive manufacturers to showcase not only exciting up-and-coming models but also concepts that they have tucked in their back pockets for possible production later. Every single year brings something new, and car enthusiasts get hyped about the possibilities. 2022 was no exception - see what Toyota rolled out for SEMA this year below! Before we get into the individual new Toyota models and concepts, here are some highlights from the show: Toyota announced the world debut of an all-new model on their trucks and SUVs - Trailhunter. This special new grade will be outfitted with overlanding components, reinforcements, and functionality, all from the Toyota factory. Toyota also announced its Associated Accessory Program (AAP), which is a new program designed to give customers a more seamless way to accessorize their Toyotas. AAP will offer parts, components, and accessories not only from Toyota but also from its trusted partners to ensure there's a large selection of options. Even better, customers will be able to roll the cost of the accessories into the overall payment plan for the vehicle. Now let's talk about the new Toyotas featured at the show. Here's the rundown of the 13 special builds that were introduced: The GR Corolla Rally Concept: This Toyota Motorsports Garage concept is a sports car designed for a rally race - it's a six-speed manual turbocharged hot hatch with all-wheel drive and a sporty new exterior that also offers functionality via rally car body work. The GR86 Daily Drifter: If you want a daily driver that can also hit the track, this new Toyota is your dream come true. It was designed to offer the best of both worlds and bring a race vehicle within reach of the average motorsports enthusiast (aka not break the bank). With a supercharger, cat-back performance exhaust, a StopTech Big Brake kit, and a roll cage, it does just that. The 10-Second Twins: This pair of GR Supra sports cars were designed to hit a quarter-mile in ten seconds... and they do, thanks to a Pure Turbo single turbo and two CSF high-performance intercoolers. Those features combined with a few other tweaks resulted in 620 horsepower and 590 lb-ft torque. The 2023 Simba Sequoia and Orion Tundra by X Overland: I f you've never seen the TV series Expedition Overland, watch it. Rachelle and Clay Croft - who established the company in 2010 - designed two special new Toyotas that are perfect for overlanding. The Simba Sequoia boasts a compression damping electronic valve suspension system, as well as a 12,000 lb winch, a custom rear steel bumper with dual swing outs, rock climbers, skid plates, and Rigid rock lights. The Orion Tundra showcases upgraded front and rear shocks, MaxTrax recovery boards, a heavy-duty winch, Rigid rock lights/fog lights/light kits, skid plates, side steps, and rock sliders. The Ultimate Overlanding Sequoia TRD Off-Road: Looking for the best way to get off the beaten path? Pray this new Toyota makes it into production. This upgraded Sequoia offers a three-inch lift, increased departure/approach angles, new Bead Grip Method Race Wheels with Open Country tires, skid plates, rock sliders, front and rear bumpers with swingouts, traction boards, a Warn VR Evo 12-S winch, an onboard air tank, and a digital inflator (just to name a few things). The Sequoia TRD Pro Adventurer: Westcott Designs helped design this off-road-ready version of the new Toyota Sequoia, adding features like a three-inch lift kit, Camburg Racing upper control and trailing arms, Nitto Recon Grapplers A/T tires, Rigid industries light bar/fog lights/ditch light/ADAPT lights, rock sliders, a rear hatch ladder, a hitch-mounted rack, and low-profile roof racks. The GR86 Cup Car and GR Corolla Official NASA Pace Car: The GR86 Cup Car will serve as the vehicle for the GR Cup racing series, and the GR Corolla Official NASA Pace Car is fresh off its pacing duties at the 2022 NASA National Championships. The GR86 Cup Car features track-inspired engineering and elements like Bosch engine management, a custom Borla exhaust, a SADEV 6-speed sequential transmission, adjustable JRI shocks, a roll cage, and Stratasys custom bodywork. The GR Corolla Official NASA Pace Car is turbocharged, all-wheel drive, and sports red, white, and black graphics inspired by Toyota motorsports and endurance racing. The FJ49, Megatourer, and Supertourer (aka the Black Truck): Patriot Campers did three separate builds for SEMA 2022, and designed them to be suitable for off-roading and overlanding in Australia. The FJ49 is a 1977 FJ45 with modern tech and components like custom coil spring suspension, custom flares/bars/tow bar, a Warn winch, LED driving lights and light bars, and an exo cage. The interior was kept retro to match the vibe. The Supertourer is a Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series GLX that's had its frame extended 11.8". It showcases engine, suspension, tire, and wheel upgrades, as well as a full camper suite that includes a kitchenette, a slide-out fridge, air compressor, water tank, pop-up tent with platform, and nav/communications system. The Megatourer uses a 1979 Land Cruiser 79 Series chassis with an extra axle and wheels to accommodate a camper suite; it offers features like an Airbag Man custom air ride system, 8" of lift, an upgraded turbocharger for the 4.2L inline 6 engine, and an air snorkel kit.

Considering making your next new Toyota an electric car? The 2023 Toyota bz4X is headed to a dealership near you this fall, and we can't wait for it to arrive at Toyota of Orlando. However, it's not the only electric car on the market so it's critical that you do your research and decide which one will be the best fit for your needs. Today our Orlando Toyota dealership is comparing one of the Toyota bz4X's closest competitors: the 2023 Subaru Solterra. How does the 2023 Toyota bz4X stack up against the 2023 Subaru Solterra? Let's talk about performance first, as that's usually one of the most significant items on the list for drivers who want to take home an electric car. The Toyota bz4X outranks the Subaru Solterra in one of the most critical aspects of an EV - range. It gets 252 miles out of one charge, while the Solterra falls short at just 222 miles on one charge. Here are some other details in regards to their performance: The Toyota bz4X comes in front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. The Subaru Solterra comes in all-wheel drive. The Toyota bz4X gets 131 city and 107 highway MPGe. The Subaru Solterra gets 93 city and 111 highway MPGe. This new Orlando Toyota offers better handling thanks to a lower 50 series profile with a stiffer sidewall than the Subaru's 60 series tires. This 2023 Toyota also pulls ahead in terms of interior space. It offers more cargo room, a wider cabin, and is taller. Both cars offer a fully electric system under the hood, which means they're zero emissions and use no gasoline whatsoever. Instead, they both have to be plugged into special charging stations to be able to charge up and hit the road. Now let's talk about features. You know that all of the cars at Toyota of Orlando go above and beyond in terms of safety and connectivity, but here's how our Toyota electric car stacks up against Subaru's. Believe it or not, the 2023 Toyota bz4X and Subaru Solterra pretty much break even when it comes to safety features and technology. They both include key features like advanced airbag systems, blind spot monitors with rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure alert, daytime running lights, backup cameras, and automatic braking. They also include similar convenience and entertainment features. However, this new 2023 Toyota includes wireless charging as a standard feature (Subaru adds an upcharge for it) as well as rain-sensing wipers, a feature not found on the Subaru Solterra. Additionally, the 2023 Toyota bz4X has a hands-free liftgate, which isn't offered on the Solterra. What about reliability, value, and warranties? Here are some points to consider: Toyota offers no-cost scheduled maintenance on the 2023 Toyota bz4X for 2 years or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first. Subaru doesn't offer no-cost scheduled maintenance. There are also nearly twice as many Toyota dealerships in the U.S., making it easier to find a service location. J.D. Power and Associates 2022 Initial Quality Study provided data that Toyota vehicles are higher quality than Subaru vehicles - they're rated above average, while Subaru cars are ranked below average. This is also the case in terms of long-term dependability. Toyota is also ranked second in reliability by Consumer Reports, while Subaru is in eighth place. Get updates on the 2023 Toyota bz4X from Toyota of Orlando All in all, the best way to decide if a new Toyota bz4X or Subaru Solterra is better is to see for yourself in person. Toyota of Orlando should be getting this 2023 Toyota in the next few months; you can follow us on social media for updates or call us and give us your information so we can contact you. Our Orlando Toyota dealership is open seven days a week at (407) 298-4500 and we're conveniently located just off the I-4 across from the Millenia Mall at 3575 Vineland Road.

Toyota has been up to some interesting and exciting moves for future Toyota models, and today here at Toyota of Orlando, we're giving you the rundown on what's coming for each Toyota model in 2023. So whether you're looking to trade in your current car for a brand new one, or maybe you want to know the exciting news coming to the Toyota world this year. Let's dive into it! What’s coming for each Toyota model in 2023 Corolla Cross The Corolla Cross debuted in 2022 and received a lot of praise. Well, that's because the Subcompact SUV is the perfect mesh between the spaciousness you get from an SUV and the sporty affordability the Corolla gives its drivers. It gets even better for 2023 models with a new fifth-generation hybrid system that includes All-Wheel-Drive. Corolla There’s a lot of attention being given to the Corolla this 2023 model year, with the Corolla family receiving upgrades on many levels. Here are some of the new features to be expected in 2023 models: Updated exterior styling front and rear with the new Toyota Audio Multimedia systems in the sedans and hatchbacks. More level trims LE AWD, SE, SE AWD, and XLE. The Corolla receives an electric on-demand all-wheel drive system. GR Corolla The GR Corolla gives Toyota fans the performance in this version of the Corolla Hatchback. The Toyota president Akio Toyoda even created his own model of the GR Corolla called the MORIZO Edition. Along with additional  Core and Circuit Edition models. GR 86 The Toyota GR86 comes in hot with a new rear-drive GR86 sports coupe and adds a new limited-production Special Edition model for 2023. The Special Edition is painted in an exclusive Solar Shift orange exterior color. Here are some other features you can look forward to: Cat-back GR performance exhaust system with black-chrome tips adds an exhausted note. Black-finish GR 18-inch wheels wear Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires. Special black C-pillar decal and a black rear spoiler. 4Runner The Toyota 4Runner isn’t getting a redesign for the 2023 model year. Still, it is getting a fortieth anniversary Special Edition Model on the SR5 Premium 4WD model with bold retro accents and bronze-finished elements. Exclusive features include: Bronze-finished 17-inch alloy wheels. Body-color “heritage” grille. Bronze-colored 40th Anniversary liftgate badge. Retro race-inspired with yellow, orange, and red exterior. BZ4X THE BZ4X is the first all-electric compact SUV on the Toyota lineup in 2023. However, we expect it to be tweaked before entering the dealership lots this year in Orlando, FL. Camry The Toyota Camry joins the Nightshade family with an appearance package for the 2023 model year. In addition, they get an upgrade by getting 19-inch bronze-finished wheels with black-trimmed headlights and taillights. Highlander The Toyota Highlander is getting an upgrade with a 265-horsepower 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine in the models separate from the hybrid models. The torque receives an upgrade from 263 lb-ft to 309 lb-ft. The interiors add a dual 12.3-inch display screen for the Limited and Platinum models and a relocated wireless charging pad. RAV4 The RAV4 Hybrid in Orlando, FL, is receiving a unique off-roading Woodland Edition model for 2023. It has everything you need in an adventurous ride with features including: TRD off-road-tuned suspension. Falken-brand all-terrain tires. Flow-formed bronze-colored wheels. Mudguards. Black badging. Roof-rack cross bars. With unique Woodland Edition all-weather floor and cargo mats. Sequoia We are super excited about the Toyota Sequoia redesign that's getting so many high-tech features and upgrades. It received its first redesign in 2008, so it's groundbreaking to get its first redesign in over a decade. We are in pleasant anticipation of this model hitting our dealership this year. Sienna It’s the 25th Anniversary of the Toyota Sienna. In its honor, Toyota came out with a 2023 special anniversary edition with a sporty XSE trim and upgrades modeling the Limited model with exclusive interior and exterior additions. Ironically, 2525 limited edition models will be coming to dealerships for this model year and Toyota of Orlando may be one of them. Supra The Orlando Toyota Supras are getting a manual transmission for the 2023 model year and an upgrade in performance with an option on the 3.0 6-cylinder models, while the 2.0 4-cylinder models will be available only in an 8-speed automatic. Tacoma The Toyota Tacoma oozes everything you want in a truck. There’s anticipation surrounding when the Tacoma will get a redesign because, let’s be honest, as much as everyone loves the Tacoma, even nice things deserve an upgrade. Unfortunately, folks will have to wait because the redesign will not be happening for 2023 models. However, the models for 2023 add SX and Chrome appearance packages for the entry-level SR5 trim level. The SX Package: Blackout trim A unique bed graphic. The Chrome Package: Chrome-finished 18-inch wheels, Chrome door handles, Chrome TACOMA lettering on the tailgate. Tundra The Tundra got a complete upgrade in 2022. So, it only makes sense that the redesign would leave a lasting effect, even until 2023. However, the SR5 models are available now with an optional SX Package appearance group with features including blacked-out trim and 18-inch wheels finished in dark metallic gray. Venza The Orlando Toyota Venza is coming up with a new nightshade edition appearance package with blackout trim this 2023 model year. Looking for a brand new 2023 Car? Visit Toyota of Orlando.
