Toyota Ireland, one of the country’s most successful and loved brands has just hit the monumental 500,000 sales mark for its passenger vehicles.

FT-86 II concept from Toyota introduces a new generation of sports car. This front engine, rear-wheel drive concept gives the clearest indication yet of the FT-86 final design. The FT-86 II perfectly recaptures the exhilarating spirit of the Toyota Corolla Levin AE 86 – the must-have rallying and circuit driving choice in the 1980s. It is driver-oriented, designed to give form to the intrinsic joy of driving.

In the recently published 2010 Which? Car Survey, Toyota and Lexus vehicles took the top four positions in the most reliable “used large car” category. In the “new large car” category, two Toyota vehicles also received top five placements.

Toyota Ireland has taken a clear No 1 position in the Irish motor market with a dominant 17.4% share of new passenger vehicle sales as stated in SIMI’s January 2011 report on registration numbers which was published today.

Toyota Ireland is proud to announce the arrival of the new generation Land Cruiser in this the 60th anniversary year since it was first introduced.
