Toyota is making a move into the social media world like no other car company. In order to provide a more personalized driving experience, Toyota wants your vehicle to be able to follow you on social media. In doing this, Toyota believes it will be able to “enhance your routine” by offering suggestions and ads for nearby attractions and businesses. They also believe it will help navigation-wise by learning your route to work and suggesting a non-congested route if there is an accident or road work on the roads you normally take. This “digital concierge” is still in the testing stages for now but don’t be surprised if you see it in a few years time. And for those of you worried about privacy, there will be the ability to “opt-in/out”. Keep an eye here on our blog for all the latest information on Toyota innovations!

It seems like automakers are coming up with new technologies left and right, but none of them can compete with Toyota. In 2015, Toyota received 1,636 patents, the most patents among all automakers for the second year in a row, according to the United States Patent and Trademark Office. They haven’t just limited themselves to auto innovations either. They have applied for patents for artificial skin, self-cleaning fabrics, and more. So not only are they a global auto leader but a leading global innovator as well. “As companies in the automotive industry transform themselves into broader mobility providers, no auto company better demonstrates innovation and technology for the future than Toyota,” said Jeff Makarewicz, senior vice president, Toyota Technical Center (TTC), Toyota’s North American research & development headquarters.  “We’re focused on delivering great experiences for our customers, a cornerstone of Toyota’s product commitment, and this recognition is proof we’re living up to that promise.” "Toyota Leads Auto Industry in Innovation, Again! | Corporate."

Looking for a car that is American-made and ultra-dependable? Look no further than the Toyota Camry! For the second time in a row, Cars.com has listed the Camry as the most American-made and the best-selling car in the country. This is sixth time overall that the Camry has made the list. The Toyota Sienna also made the list and came in at number three. “This recognition from Cars.com is a tribute to Toyota employees, not only those at the plant who build the Camry but the broader Toyota team who design, engineer, market and finance the vehicle in the United States,” said Bob Carter, Toyota senior vice president of automotive operations. “We also support local suppliers and economies, and we have invested more than $6 billion into our Kentucky operations alone, which is growing with our new production engineering campus under construction there.” All vehicles on the cars.com American-Made Index must meet specific requirements which include having at least 75 percent of parts made domestically and the car must be assembled in the U.S. Domestic sales are also taken into consideration.

“Toyota’s new headquarters campus will be a model for energy efficiency and sustainability,” said Kevin Butt, General Manager, Environmental, Toyota Motor North America. “Toyota has challenged ourselves to create a net positive impact on the planet by 2050, and these campus programs are one step in a series of global efforts to achieve this goal.” Reducing energy usage and impact on the environment is a high priority goal for the entire Toyota corporation, specifically the Plano, TX plant. In order to reach these goals by 2050, they have devised several methods and ideas to speed up the process which we’ve outlined for you below. Flower Power Play - The landscaping of the plant will reflect that of North Texas. The native-influenced habitat will include savannah, oaklands, and wildflower meadows. The local flora will attract and promote the growth of local fauna. Rain Body Check - After the local plant and wildlife have taken hold, there won’t be a need for landscaping expenses, like mowing and artificial irrigation. Because the plants are native to the area and will attract local animals and insects, the area will self-regulate. The only watering that will occur will be in select areas and will be done so with a state-of-the-art rainwater capture system. Solar Shootout - The Plano plant will have a 7.75-megawatt solar system designed and installed by SunPower Corp. which will be one of the largest, on-site solar installations in the state of Texas. The system is expected to provide about 25 percent of the power needed for the campus. Renewable Hat Trick - In addition to the SunPower system, Plano will get energy from MP2, a Texas company that focuses on renewable energy. The plant will also use high-efficiency lighting and building shells and will feature rooftop gardens that will help manage rainwater distribution and help insulate the buildings.
