SUVs are on the rise when it comes to popularity - more and more drivers are choosing to put this vehicle in their driveway! According to Consumer Reports, passenger vehicles only accounted for 3/10 cars sold last month regardless of whether they're economy or luxury cars. Passenger cars are becoming less popular as people opt for more versatile options, and SUVs top the list. Toyota of Clermont has a huge selection of SUVs for sale, and we're here to tell you why you should consider this particular type of ride next time it's time to shop! Why are SUVs so insanely popular right now? So, why is a Clermont Toyota SUV a great option for your next ride? Here are some of the perks that come along with SUV ownership: There's a wide range of options. When you shop our Clermont Toyota SUVs, you'll find everything from the edgy and compact Toyota C-HR crossover to the spacious and powerful Toyota Land Cruiser... and everything in between. You'll find hybrid options, rugged off-road options, fuel-efficient family cars, and more so you'll easily be able to find the perfect SUV for your drive time needs. They're versatile enough to take on and off the road. Did you know that the Clermont Toyota 4Runner, Sequoia, and Land Cruiser all come with 4x4 options? You'll also be able to tackle things off the pavement with features like Active Traction Control, CRAWL Control, Multi-Terrain Select, and more. Whether you're taking on carpool or carving new trails, you're covered. These vehicles are versatile enough for both. You'll find the latest and greatest safety technology in them. SUVs tend to have the best safety technology woven into their design because they're often used as family vehicles, and our Toyota SUVs are no exception.

The future of the automotive industry is a testament of how far technology can go to deliver safety and convenience for drivers. Within the past few years we’ve seen the introduction of almost autonomous safety features helping drivers to stay in their lanes and avoid collisions. We’ve seen convenience features incorporate apps and dynamic navigation to make driving less distracting and markedly more helpful than previous years. And we’ve seen something truly impressive, autonomous vehicles. For years, automotive giants have explored the possibility of developing self-driving vehicles and, recently, Toyota made their stake in the race to autonomous vehicle development. Toyota of Clermont is here with all the details and what you can expect to see from future Clermont Toyota vehicles. Toyota’s future in autonomous vehicles Investing $500 million is a serious amount of money and Toyota hasn’t been shy about their eagerness to push forward into a future of new technology for the automotive industry.

For Clermont Toyota drivers, it’s difficult to say if this technology will make its way into your next Toyota Corolla or RAV4. However, Uber does intend to outfit Clermont Toyota Siennas with autonomous vehicle technology for testing purposes with the hopes of real-time application and testing in 2021. This isn’t Toyota’s first venture into autonomous vehicles or into mobility services. Investments into projects like the Toyota Research Institute and artificial intelligence lab, e-Palette, and even other ride sharing companies like Grab show that Toyota is serious about this automotive industry path. A future of personal autonomous vehicles or ride sharing using self-driving Clermont Toyota vehicles is entirely possible and, with these recent moves by Toyota, we could see this technology at our dealership before you know it!

Family-friendly vehicles are a dime a dozen and it can be hard to wade through the selection and choose just one. You want safety and convenience, but you also want efficiency, versatile performance capabilities, and a fair amount of space on the interior, too. Plus, it doesn't hurt to have some style going on! Toyota of Clermont is here to help. We think that the 2018 Toyota Highlander is the ultimate when it comes to family-friendliness, and we're not the only ones. It recently was voted as the better option when it comes to its main competitor, the Honda Pilot. Why is the 2018 Toyota Highlander your best option for a family-friendly ride? How does it do it? They're pretty similar when it comes to size and performance... but the Clermont Toyota Highlander pulls ahead of the pack when it comes to safety and luxury options, and that's what made it take the top spot when in competition with the Honda Pilot. We've got the details! First, let's talk about safety because we know that's a main concern when it comes to family vehicles. This Clermont Toyota comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense P, which means even on the base model you'll get features like lane departure alert, a Pre-Collision System with pedestrian detection, automatic highbeams, and dynamic radar cruise control for highway driving. It also comes with a handy backup camera to give you an extra set of eyes. Its Honda competitor doesn't offer any of the above features on the base level except for a backup camera. You're definitely getting more bang for your buck with the Toyota option when it comes to safety! Let's talk luxury next. Sometimes you just want to take your drive time to a new level, and this new Toyota SUV gives you the tools to do it. It comes with a larger touchscreen for your audio system, as well as more USB ports for hooking up your devices and charging. It offers a CD player (not found on the Honda Pilot) and also boasts features like a standard MP3 player, standard navigation, and comfy rear bucket seats. See where this Clermont Toyota pulls ahead of the pack Here are just a few other areas where the 2018 Toyota Highlander surpasses its Honda competition: Fuel efficiency: This Toyota SUV gets 21 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. The Honda Pilot falls behind in the city, getting just 19 mpg, and breaks even on the highway with 27 mpg. Horsepower/torque: Our Clermont Toyota gets 295 horsepower and 263 lb/ft torque and comes with an 8-speed transmission; the Pilot gets 280 horsepower and 262 lb/ft torque and comes with a 6-speed transmission. Towing: You'll be able to pull up to 5,000 lbs standard with the new Toyota option; its Honda competition only allows for towing up to 1,500 lbs. Space: Stretch out in the Toyota Highlander - it offers 4 more inches of legroom in the front. It's easy (in our opinion) to see which of these SUVs should make its way into your driveway, so what are you waiting for? Schedule a test drive today! Call Toyota of Clermont at (352) 404-7000.

As the world develops and implements new forms of renewable energy for automobiles, Toyota has found it’s stake in the game, hydrogen fuel cell technology. Unlike hybrid, gasoline, or electric engines, hydrogen fuel cell engines will use hydrogen as their main source of power. While Toyota has developed a vehicle with this capability, the Toyota Mirai, the technology is costly and hydrogen pump stations are very few and far between. Toyota’s goal is to bring hydrogen fuel cell technology to more places, like Clermont, and make the technology more affordable and accessible. Toyota of Clermont is here with all the details on Toyota’s mass-production goals and when you can expect to see hydrogen fuel cell technology at the dealership! The benefits of hydrogen fuel cell technology It seems strange to use hydrogen fuel cells when there are options like hybrid and electric engines used to power Clermont Toyota vehicles. But, hydrogen technology is one of the cleanest forms of energy production that requires little maintenance and works similarly to gasoline engines. Here are some of the benefits to using hydrogen fuel cell technology in Clermont Toyota vehicles: Hydrogen is one of the most abundant elements on Earth and can be produced and harnessed through a variety of means. Like electricity, it’s readily available and its efficiency depends on how its produced. Hydrogen fuel cells work similarly to electric engines in cars, but they never need to be recharged. They are refilled with hydrogen at pumping stations that are like gasoline pumps. Using this technology can reduce carbon dioxide waste product by 90% and water is the only thing emitted from the tailpipe. Fuel cell engines have no moving parts and don’t require an oil change. Because of their great efficiency, hydrogen fuel cell technology engines can travel farther than a gasoline engine whole using half the amount of hydrogen a typical engine would use in gasoline. Toyota’s plans for mass-production A few of the issues facing access to hydrogen fuel cell technology is its lack of availability to Clermont Toyota drivers and the fact that the technology is expensive. But, Toyota hopes to change all of that by mass-producing fuel cell vehicles. Currently, the Clermont Toyota Mirai is being improved to be more compact and efficient and could be available in the early 2020s. But, Toyota isn’t stopping there. With plans to reduce expensive materials in the engine and move towards incorporating hydrogen fuel cell technology in SUVs and pick-up trucks by 2025, Toyota aims to prove that this technology is the best source of clean energy for automobile operation. There are also talks of improving the driving range of hydrogen engines from around 300 miles (the typical range for a gasoline engine) to around 620 miles! Shop hybrid technology at Toyota of Clermont Renewable energy is the future of the automobile industry and it’s not as far away as you might think. While the only current fuel cell equipped vehicle is the Clermont Toyota Mirai, Toyota of Clermont has several hybrid vehicles that will cut back on emissions and save you at the pump! Check out vehicles like the 2018 Prius, Prius C, Prius Prime, 2019 Avalon Hybrid, 2018 Camry Hybrid, 2018 RAV4 Hybrid, and 2018 Highlander Hybrid. All are in our inventory and Toyota of Clermont waiting for you to take a test drive! Call us at (352) 404 – 7000 to get things set up!

Against sports cars and a fiercely long test, three teams of new Toyota drivers came out on top at this year’s One Lap of America competition. This test covered 3,675 miles over eight days and more than 70 vehicles competed. Not only did these Toyota teams finish the competition, they earned hardware using the new Toyota Camry and Prius. These vehicles are packed with award winning features and our Clermont dealership has a wide selection to choose from. Read on to see what these cars and teams took home and which model best suits you! New Toyota accomplishments The Kentucky, West Virginia, and Indiana teams gave it their all for this difficult event and it paid off tremendously. In a demonstration of the performance of the new Toyota Camry and 2017 Prius, the three teams received first and second place awards in the alternate fuel class category and third place in both economy and mid-priced sedan classes. This places these new models ahead of several other makes and models that are more known for racing. These two Clermont Toyota models are well deserving of their accomplishments and the teams even more so. Demonstrating that the Toyota Camry and Prius are more than just commuter vehicles was no easy task, but these teams proved that and more with their One Lap winnings. Let’s dive deeper into what makes these vehicles worthy of the awards. 2018 Toyota Camry With several trim options and a hybrid model, the Clermont Toyota Camry is a versatile vehicle with a sleek new design and loads of new features. Here are some of the features that make this Clermont Toyota more than just a sedan: An all new Toyota exterior design with a meaner looking grille, 19-inch black alloy wheels, LED head and tail lighting, and a chrome tipped dual exhaust.
