The results are in, Aussies love Toyotas! What are your finance options when buying one?
It’s official, Aussie drivers are hitting the road Toyota style! Last week, market research company Roy Morgan announced that Toyota was Australia’s most popular car brand by volume of sales in 2020. “Australia’s largest car manufacturer Toyota has triumphed in the Major Car Manufacturer of the Year Award after winning 12 straight months during 2020,” Roy Morgan chief executive officer, Michele Levine said. “Toyota had an average customer satisfaction rating of 94% during 2020.” On top of that, car insurance provider Budget Direct painted a similar story for the beginning of this year. In fact, according to its latest Australian car sale statistics , Toyota maintained the lead in new car sales with 16,819 vehicles sold over January 2021. This is almost double the amount of the next most popular car brand Mazda, which recorded 8,508 new car sales for the month. Of the Toyota fleet, Budget Direct recorded that the Toyota Hilux was the most popular model with 45,176 new car sales over 2020. This is followed by the Toyota RAV4 (38,357), Toyota Corolla (25,882) and Toyota Prado (18,034). Plus, with the second hand car market currently booming, a bunch of second hand Toyotas have been sold around the country - which are not factored into the above statistics.
