The Brand Throughout Time
Toyota’s roots began in Japan, growing from the engineering background of Toyoda Automatic Loom Works before moving into motor vehicles in the 1930s. One of Toyota’s early passenger vehicles, the Toyota AA, helped mark the brand’s entry into automotive manufacturing.
Toyota Motor Company was officially established in 1937, and over time the brand became known for practical engineering, dependable vehicles, and a strong focus on long-term value.
From compact city cars to bakkies, SUVs, commercial vehicles, hybrids, and off-road legends, Toyota has built a global reputation around reliability, usability, and road-tested strength.
