There's no doubt that hybrid is increasingly becoming more of a popular choice for car buyers, with this popularity; Toyota have seen a 5.5 % increase in new hybrid vehicle sales in 2017. Hybird sales accounted for almost 45% of that total, seeing a 40% increase on sales year-on-year.
So what do the results show us? It's evident that Hybrid is appealing more and more to drivers due to the fantastic benefits and ease of driving. The results also demonstrate Toyota’s technology leadership in cleaner, more efficient powertrains has helped the brand improve its performance in a UK market that declined overall by 5.6 per cent.
In 2017, 101,692 new Toyota passenger cars were sold to UK customers, giving the company a 4% share of the market. The new C-HR crossover made a significant impact during its first full year of sales, with almost 15,000 registrations – more than 10,000 of these being the hybrid version.
Toyota offers a wider range of petrol-electric hybrids than any other manufacturer, ranging from the Yaris Hybrid supermini and British-built Auris Hybrid hatchback and wagon, to the RAV4 Hybrid SUV and the latest version of Prius, the world’s first mass-produced hybrid.
Paul Van der Burgh, Toyota GB President and Managing Director, said: “Our positive results demonstrate how more and more motorists are recognising the genuine rewards of choosing a Toyota petrol-electric hybrid. The highly efficient performance of our unmatched hybrid model range is a big draw, together with their well-proven reliability and lasting quality.”

Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed.
