Toyota Family Cars

Why choose a Toyota family car?

Each family will have their reasons for choosing a Toyota car, but here are some of the most popular reasons amongst our customers: 

1. Hybrid technology

While some car brands are only just starting to add electric and hybrid cars to their range, Toyota has - quite literally - been doing it for years. In fact, Toyota launched its first hybrid car in the UK in 2000 with the Toyota Prius. 

Being one of the first car brands to use it, it’s safe to say that Toyota has developed its hybrid technology over the years, now offering some of the most advanced and reliable hybrid cars available. 

Great, but what does that mean for your family? Well, choose a hybrid family car from Toyota and you can reduce your spend on fuel, as you’ll have the option of electric-only shorter journeys.* Pop to the shops, take the kids to their friends or do the school run without using any fuel. 

By reducing the amount of fuel you’re using, a hybrid family car will reduce the environmental impact of your day-to-day journeys. 

*This depends on the type of hybrid you choose. Find out more in our guide to hybrid cars.

1. Reliable

With your busy life, you don’t have time to be without your car. That’s one of the reasons why a Toyota family car is an excellent choice, as the brand is one of the most reliable available. 

In the 2023 What Car? Reliability Survey, Toyota came second overall with a reliability score of 97.4%, based on the the thoughts of almost 22,000 drivers! In fact, the only brand ahead of Toyota was its sister company Lexus. With Lexus family cars having a larger price tag, opting for a Toyota car will mean you can get a dependable car even on a smaller budget. 

The Toyota RAV4 scored highly for reliability in the large SUV category, achieving 98.7%, while the Yaris hatchback hit a very impressive 99.3% in the small cars category. Whether you’re looking for a larger SUV or a smaller runaround, Toyota’s reputation for reliability extends throughout the range for your peace of mind. 

1. Affordable

Family life isn’t cheap, we get it. But at least you can save on your motoring costs with a Toyota family car. 

With many car types to choose from, you can find a family car to meet your needs and budget. Most Toyota cars are available for less than £400 per month, with most between £250 and £350 per month. 

Some of the best value options include the Toyota C-HR compact crossover SUV and the Toyota Yaris Cross SUV. Both are excellent choices if you want the space and practicality of an SUV without the larger dimensions (or price tag!). 

What’s impressive about Toyota family cars is that even on entry-level models, you’ll still get a great selection of features. 

Take the Toyota Corolla for example; you’ll get Apple CarPlay, a wireless mobile charger and front and rear parking sensors as standard. You’ll also benefit from Toyota Safety Sense, a package of safety features including pre-collision alerts, automatic braking and blind spot monitoring, to keep your family safe on the road.
