Toyota is famous for always hearing their customers out. It's why the automaker has expanded their hybrid offerings from just the one Prius to an entire Prius family. It's why the new Toyota lineup offers some of the safest, most fuel-efficient models in the world. And, it's also why Toyota now offers features like Entune and ToyotaCare as standard amenities.

In addition to this, Toyota is going to do something that bucks...

In the area surrounding Chicago, Illinois, there are 112 Toyota dealerships and 70 local Toyota associates, and Toyota has wasted no time in investing money and energy into building a solid foundation for this major section of the Toyota network. As such, they recently broke ground at a new Toyota Training Center in nearby Aurora, the result of a $4.9 million investment.

When the 15,000 square foot center is completed next summer, it...

Of course you know that Toyota has been at the forefront of fuel-efficient technology for the better part of the last two decades. Take for example, the game-changing Toyota Prius, and all of its new siblings - the Prius v, Prius c and Prius Plug-in. Needless to say, even though the Japanese automaker knows they have an award-winning formula, they're not content to just rest on their laurels.

So then you may be wondering...

Here at Dayton Toyota, our number one goal is to help you find a dependable car that will last you many years and many many miles. It doesn't matter to us which shape you which your vehicle to take - from a fun compact car like a new Toyota Camry to a certified-used vehicle with some miles on the odometer. Or maybe your ideal family/errand/weekend car is a hybrid? Well, if you know...

What can you expect from the 2013 Toyota Corolla when it arrives at Dayton Toyota? Many of the same enhancements the automaker made to the compact sedan for 2012 will carry over to the next model year, except a new grille design and chrome accents pep up the exterior. Updates to the Display Audio System are also in store. The bottom line is: Toyota has left the ever-popular Corolla mostly intact, meaning it's just...

Earlier this summer, we told you a little bit about some of the Toyota "100 Cars for Good" finalists that were competing for the chance at a new Toyota that would help them accomplish daily tasks at their not-for-profit organizations. The first 50 of 100 businesses that will get the new Toyota model of their choice have been announced, and we'd like to take just a minute to tell you more about them and...

Last month, we mentioned that Toyota did really well on the J.D. Power and Associates Initial Quality Study this year. But, just how well did they do? You'll be happy (but not surprised) to hear that Toyota customers only reported 88 problems per 100 vehicles, well above the industry average of 102 per 100 vehicles. But that's not all.

Of the top ten scoring automakers (those with the least number of reported...

Earlier this month, Toyota took two hybrid supercars to the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race, and had pulled into the lead until an accident with a Ferrari took them out of the running. That doesn't mean Toyota is done showing off their electric prowess, though - you'll see another Toyota model at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in Colorado this July.

The TMG EV P002 that Fumio Nutahara will pilot during...

For Toyota, making a whole family of reliable, fuel-efficient hybrids is only the beginning. Because these cars are worth more than their gas-sipping engines, they're safe and fun-to-drive, too! Take, for example, the Toyota Prius, Prius v and Prius c, all of which are IIHS Top Safety Picks.

Of course, we're not surprised to see the Prius c join the Top Safety Pick ranks, even as the youngest member of the Prius family...

From 2008 to 2010, Toyota remained the largest automaker in the world, outselling competitors year-after-year. 2011 was an entirely different story, as you know, when a devastating earthquake and tsunami tore through Japan, upsetting everything in its path - including production of some of the world's favorite vehicles. But, Dayton Toyota is proud to say that the automaker has put all of this behind them, and have yet again begun to outsell American, German, and...
