Why Should I Buy a Toyota?
There's a reason Toyota is one of the most popular car brands on the road, and it's not just because we're selling them. Toyota has a well-deserved reputation for engineering reliable and safe vehicles — and that's why we love them so much here at Karl Malone Toyota of El Dorado! If you're new to the car-buying process or are considering one of the Toyota brand's top rivals, check out our list of reasons why you should be driving a new Toyota. It was difficult, but we've narrowed down our list to four: dependability, safety, resale value and commitment to hybrid power. Read up on why we think a new Toyota should be in your garage, and then come down to see us for a test drive today!
Dependability
In today's unpredictable climate, it's not enough to just be stylish — a vehicle also has to be dependable. A car that's as reliable as it is attractive is worth its weight in gold, and that's why we're proud to announce that Toyota has been ranked #5 in J.D. Power’s 2022 Vehicle Dependability Study by brand.1 That ranking puts the automaker among some of the most trusted and respected brands in the entire world, which is no surprise for a company with more than 100 years of experience under its belt. The Toyota Corolla and the Toyota Tundra were both named by the same study, and both can be found here at our dealership!
Safety
Whether you're driving to work on the weekdays or taking a road trip with your family on the weekends, safety is your top priority. And you can always rely on Toyota to help make sure that you and your loved ones are protected while you're out on the road. Toyota has been recognized for its commitment to safety again this year by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). In fact, the 2022 Toyota Sienna, Highlander and Camry were each named a TOP SAFETY PICK+, and the 2022 Toyota Avalon, CH-R and Venza received TOP SAFETY PICK recognition.2 This means that no matter which model you choose from the diverse Toyota lineup, you can be confident that your vehicle was designed with your safety in mind.
Resale Value
Are you ready to let go of your current Toyota and get behind the wheel of a new one? You can rest assured that there’s no shortage of potential buyers who will be happy to take your Toyota off your hands. It’s not just a fun-to-drive car — it also has great resale value! Toyota has been named Kelley Blue Book®’s 2022 Best Resale Value Brand for the fifth time in six years,3 so you can expect to get a great price when you sell your Toyota, and it shouldn’t take long for someone to bite.
Expanding Hybrid Lineup
Toyota knows a thing or two about being green. As the leader in the hybrid and all-electric market, Toyota has a hybrid equivalent for nearly every gas-powered vehicle (think: the Avalon, Camry, Corolla, Highlander, RAV4 and Sienna). And other models, like the Mirai, Venza, RAV4 Prime, Prius and Prius Prime, have been making a name for themselves in the hybrid world for years. With the Toyota brand's impressive mpg, you'll probably be surprised at how infrequently you need to visit the gas station. Drive home a Toyota Super Ultra-Low Emissions Vehicle (SULEV) today!
