Popular Toyota Models We Import
We source a wide range of Toyota vehicles from Japan, covering everything from premium hybrid people movers to elegant executive sedans. Below are some of the most popular Toyota models our clients import. Don’t see yours? Get in Touch Today!
Alphard
The Toyota Alphard Hybrid is the pinnacle of Japanese luxury people movers. With its commanding presence, whisper-quiet hybrid drivetrain, and first-class cabin, the Alphard 30 and 40 Series are among the most popular imports for families who refuse to compromise on comfort. Executive seating, power sliding doors, and advanced safety tech make this one of the most sought-after vehicles coming out of Japan.
Corolla
The Toyota Corolla Touring Hybrid combines practicality with excellent fuel economy in a sleek wagon body. Built for the Japanese domestic market with hybrid efficiency and generous boot space, it’s a versatile daily driver that’s hard to find locally. Sharp styling, Toyota Safety Sense, and low running costs make it a smart choice for buyers wanting something refined and dependable.
Crown GRS214
The Toyota Crown GRS214 is a full-sized executive sedan built exclusively for the Japanese market, powered by a naturally aspirated V6. It delivers a classic premium driving experience with rear-wheel drive, plush interior appointments, and a bold upright presence. Rarely seen on Australian roads, the Crown GRS214 is a genuine head-turner for those who want something sophisticated and distinctly JDM.
Crown Hybrid
The Toyota Crown Hybrid AZSH20 represents a more modern take on the iconic Crown nameplate, pairing a 2.5-litre hybrid powertrain with a low-slung, sporty silhouette. With its twin-motor hybrid system, near-electric take-off, and luxurious cabin, the AZSH20 sits at the intersection of performance and refinement. It’s a unique import that offers genuine premium character without the European price tag.
