The Japanese brand Toyota was founded by Kiirchiro Toyoda. It unveiled its first prototype, the A1, in 1935, and this marked the birth of the Toyota Motor Corporation. By the end of the decade Toyota had already produced 100,000 vehicles, including passenger cars and a pickup. In the 1950s the brand continued to expand, and by the end of that decade it had established Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A., Inc., and started exporting vehicles to the United States.
From then on the Toyota brand grew steadily in popularity, releasing all kinds of new models, including the Corolla, Celica, 4Runner SUV, Camry, Avalon and the Prius. Toyota vehicles are recognized for being refined and well-designed, and they have an impressive record for reliability and durability. Toyota’s current lineup of vehicles includes minivans, cars, trucks and SUVs.
