    News About Toyota Car Insurance

    • Toyota plans to launch subscription-based ownership of cars in India

      The car manufacturing major, Toyota, has planned to release new cars such as Avanza, Rush, and Alphard MPV as well as launch a new subscription-based car ownership program in the country. The company has already designed a working model of this probable program in Japan. Since India is becoming more and more open to shared mobility, the company sees good opportunity in launching the facility here. Other manufacturers, Skoda and Mahindra have already announced such ownership programs in the country. The lease system will enable individuals to get cars such as the Innova Crysta or the Fortuner for a temporary time period as decided by the company and the individual. Since cars are mostly perceived as a status symbol in India, the lease-based ownership may not strike a chord with all the citizens in the country. People who reside in metro cities are expected to be far more open to such ideas, given the success of rental cars and shared ride concepts. The smaller towns may take a little more time to accept the new concept.
