As many people face some problems in mobility, and the availability of public transportation has been limited due to the COVID-19 situation, commuters realized the need to be able to move around with their own personal modes of transport. However, given the current challenging financial condition, many feel that their dream to provide their family with a new car is not realistic to achieve for everyone.
This made many customers to endlessly search for affordable deals of brand new cars in the market or even online. But others prefer to get used cars, however, the perennial issue about the quality of used cars they buy remains their primary concern.
In this financial crunch, nobody wants to let go of their hard-earned money by investing in something that would waste thei8r money. With the proliferation of used car websites and outlets, it is really a big challenge to find your money’s worth by getting the best quality and value.
Toyota Motor Philippines understands what people want and need, hence, with its Toyota’s Certified Used Car (TCUV) program, this addresses exactly the peace of mind to the customers by ensuring that the used cars they are buying are duly certified by Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP).
TCUV is one of TMP’s value-chain programs that offer customers used vehicles that underwent a rigorous 211-point inspection and certification procedure before being classified as “certified used vehicles”. Cars offered by TCUV dealers come with an additional limited warranty and are also qualified for flexible financing terms with Toyota Financial Services.
In the media advisory sent to THEPHILBIZNEWS, TMP’s Assistant Vice President for Value Chain Section, Gener Castillo said, “Recently, most of those who inquire from our TCUV dealers are commuters who regularly use public and mass transport to get to work or to carry out essential trips for their family’s needs”.
“This could mean there is increased demand for personal mobility among those who see having a car as a need but would like a more affordable option and an easier way to get financing approval without compromising quality, efficiency, and safety,” Castillo explained.
“With TCUV, customers enjoy easy-to-own cars with the consistent Toyota experience as they are assured that the used cars passed Toyota’s strict and high-quality standards,” added Castillo.
Currently, only selected Toyota dealers to offer TCUV units. For Luzon and Metro Manila, these are Toyota Alabang, Toyota Balintawak, Toyota Batangas, Toyota Bicutan, Toyota Calamba, Toyota Dagupan, Toyota Global City, Toyota Manila Bay, Toyota Pasig, Toyota Pasong Tamo, Toyota Plaridel, Toyota Quezon Avenue, and Toyota San Pablo.
For Visayas and Mindanao, authorized TCUV retail outlets are Toyota Cagayan de Oro, Toyota Iloilo, Toyota Lapu-Lapu, Toyota Cebu City, Toyota Mandaue North and South, Toyota Tacloban, and Toyota Talisay.
Aside from offering certified used cars, TCUV dealers also source vehicles from current Toyota customers who wish to upgrade by trading in or selling their vehicle at fair value. A team of highly-skilled and accredited assessors thoroughly check the vehicle under transparent operation to guarantee that the Toyota owner gets the fair value of their vehicle.
TCUV sourcing outlets are all the above-mentioned dealers plus Toyota Abad Santos, Toyota Angeles, Toyota Butuan, Toyota Calbayog, Toyota Cubao, Toyota Dasmarinas, Toyota Makati, Toyota Marikina, Toyota Marilao, Toyota North Edsa, Toyota Otis, Toyota San Fernando, and Toyota Shaw.
