UMW Toyota Closes June Strong with Over 44K Units, Powers Ahead with Motorsports and Green Tech
UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) concluded June 2025 with robust sales performance, recording 7,773 units sold for the month and bringing its year-to-date total to 44,286 units. This achievement reinforces Toyota’s strong market presence in Malaysia and reflects the brand’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality, reliable mobility solutions for a wide range of consumers.
Toyota continues to cater to diverse customer needs—whether for first-time car owners, business professionals, or long-standing loyalists—through a broad vehicle lineup designed to deliver dependable performance, everyday practicality, and long-term value. Guided by the global “Mobility for All” philosophy, UMWT ensures each model addresses real-world needs with both innovation and reliability at its core.
Title Sponsor of the Super GT Malaysia Festival 2025
Highlighting its strong connection with the community, UMWT served as the Title Sponsor of the Super GT Malaysia Festival 2025, held at the Sepang International Circuit. The event marked the return of the prestigious racing series to Malaysian shores after a 12-year hiatus, drawing over 75,000 motorsports fans. Toyota’s presence went beyond the racetrack, with a dedicated GAZOO Racing zone showcasing GR performance models, racing simulators, interactive activities, and attractions for families—bringing motorsports closer to everyday Malaysians.
The festival also saw the international debut of the one-hour Toyota GAZOO Racing (TGR) Vios Challenge endurance race, featuring 36 drivers including five promising talents from the Toyota GAZOO Racing Young Talent Development Programme. Now in its eighth season, the race represented Toyota’s long-term investment in nurturing local motorsport talent and expanding grassroots participation in competitive racing.
Energy Asia 2025
In a parallel showcase of innovation, UMWT participated in Energy Asia 2025 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre from 16 to 18 June. At the event, Toyota presented its Multipathway strategy for decarbonisation, encompassing Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles (ICEs) compatible with biofuel, Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs), Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs), and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs).
This approach reflects Toyota’s commitment to using the most suitable technologies based on market readiness and environmental impact. Also featured was the Eco-Vehicle Assessment System, which leverages Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) principles to reduce emissions throughout a vehicle’s entire lifecycle. Visitors were able to experience the Toyota Mirai, a hydrogen-powered vehicle that emits only water vapour.
Toyota HEV Hero Challenge
To complement its sales performance, UMWT also launched attractive ownership campaigns in June. These included promotional offers for models such as the Hilux, with monthly instalments starting from RM935 and benefits worth up to RM8,000, and the Corolla Cross, with instalments starting from RM993 and savings of up to RM4,000. Both models also come with three years of free service.
In celebration of Environment Month, UMWT also launched the Hybrid Hero Challenge, a nationwide social media contest running from 16 June to 31 July 2025. Open to all Malaysians, the contest invites participants to creatively photograph themselves with any Toyota Hybrid model—such as the Corolla Cross, Camry, or Zenix—for a chance to win prizes worth over RM17,000. The 15 most creative entries will be announced on Toyota Malaysia’s official Facebook page.
