First, let's talk about performance since that's the aspect of this new Toyota that really sets it apart from all of the other cars in the lineup. The Toyota bZ4X is going to be all-electric - that means it runs on battery power alone, can be charged, is zero emissions (bZ stands for Beyond Zero), and gets an estimated 250 miles range on one charge. Additionally, it's compatible with high-output charging and can charge up to 80% in just one hour. Here are a couple of other cool facts about this Clermont Toyota: It's built on the new e-TNGA platform developed specifically for this vehicle and sports a flat lithium-ion battery that's been placed under the floor. This design allows for a lower center of gravity, which we all know means better handling. The accelerator has been redesigned for smoother and more responsive acceleration and deceleration, and the throttle has been change to an intelligent throttle for superior handling on slippery roads. A new All-Wheel-Drive system with X-MODE has been integrated into performance for the best of the best when it comes to safety. The battery is designed to have capacity retention of 90% after 10 years of ownership. What about technology? It stands to reason that this all-new electric Toyota would have the best of the best when it comes to tech. Here are some highlights we can expect from the 2023 Toyota bZ4X: It'll be the first Toyota ever to offer Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. This new suite of safety features has additions like Guardrail Detection, Low Light Cyclist Detection, Motorcyclist Detection, and improved millimeter-wave radar. Software updates will be handled wirelessly - this means you can update your Toyota Safety Sense System and your multimedia system Over-The-Air and keep performance and quality up to speed. Navigation pulls real-time information directly from the cloud, keeping you up-to-the-minute with traffic, parking, and more And design... you have to expect cutting-edge design from such a cutting-edge car. The 2023 Toyota Bz4X is aerodynamic and as sleep as it gets on the exterior, showcasing a trapezoidal theme and super-sporty accents across the board. A new curved bumper, enhanced LED lighting, and cool new paint colors make it one-of-a-kind. Additionally, the interior of the 2023 Toyota bZ4X is decked out with premium materials and an ergonomic design to make the cabin seem both spacious and convenient at the same time. Sound-proofing glass and wind-noise reduction materials were also used to enhance the sense of peace and quiet within the cabin.

Another week, another round of news updates! This week we're talking a lot about performance cars - here's looking at you, Supra - and we've also got the scoop on a new Clermont Toyota RAV4 model headed our way. See what's new in the world of Toyota news! What you should know about Toyota news this week Is a GR Corolla headed to the US? We were super excited to see the iconic GR Yaris put into production a ways back and also super bummed to hear that it wouldn't be making its way stateside anytime soon (Europe, we hope you realize how lucky you are). However, the rumor mill is buzzing and we're hearing that an all-new Toyota GR Corolla is headed into production and would be available in the US. It would supposedly have the same turbocharged 1.6L 3-cylinder engine as the GR Yaris, which translates to 295 horsepower. Further,  it would be arriving sometime in the first half of next year. We're keeping our fingers crossed! Will we see a new manual Toyota Supra next year? When the Toyota GR Supra was brought back onto the market, everyone was pumped. However, there were a handful of drivers who were rather bummed that it only came in an automatic transmission. Well, another rumor is floating around out there that this Clermont Toyota is headed to market in 2023 with a manual transmission option. This rumor isn't far-fetched - the car shares a platform with the BMW Z5, and that car offers a manual option. Here's to hoping! Toyota RAV4 Hybrid introduces SE trim-level RAV4 drivers, rejoice! An all-new trim-level is coming to the hybrid lineup for this much-loved SUV. Previously, drivers could only snag the XSE model in the RAV4 Hybrid if they wanted something supremely sporty. Toyota is now adding an SE trim to give a more affordable - but still supremely sporty - option to drivers. It'll include a 7" touchscreen audio interface and tons of new packages, including a weather package for cold weather and a convenience package for added tech. Toyota GR Supra Funny Car that gets 300 horsepower unveiled Toyota just introduced a new Funny Car (drag racing car) to the market to compete in the NHRA circuit next year - an all-new Toyota GR Supra. Since 2012, they've been putting a Toyota Camry Funny Car in the ring to compete and it's done well, but they're taking things up a notch in 2022 with the iconic Toyota Supra. The car will be commandeered by J.R. Todd (2018 NHRA Champion) and Alexis DeJoria (a former U.S. Nationals Winner). It should hit the track for its big debut next February at the Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals Race Weekend, and we can't wait to see how they transform the Toyota Supra into a Funny Car - they're usually a lot wider and longer than production cars, so it should be interesting.

It's normal to find bugs in your car from time to time - after all, we live in Florida. Seeing a random moth flutter out or a spider trying to sneak its way in your window is pretty typical, especially if you park outside. However, sometimes bugs can become a serious issue for your vehicle... namely, ants. Ants in your car can seem like a minor nuisance but quickly develop into something much larger and more expensive to deal with. That's why we've rounded up some tips on how to handle ants in your car from the experts at Toyota of Clermont's service center. It's more common than you think to get an ant infestation in a car. While ants build nests to serve as a home base, they go out to forage for food and water to bring home. And if they like where they find the food and water enough, they may just build their home base there. If your car has trash, crumbs, or anything else that might serve as an all-you-can-eat buffet, ants may decide to call it home. And even worse, they leave scent trails so all of their ant friends know where the party's at. All of these ants can chew through upholstery, wood, foam, and wires, not to mention bite you and your fellow passengers. So how can you get rid of ants in your car? Here are our top tips on evicting these pests from your Clermont Toyota. Five ways to get rid of ants in your car #1: Detail your car. First things first - you need to detail your car from bumper to bumper. We're talking every nook and cranny - in between seats, under seats, under car seats, beneath floor mats, and in all storage areas, including your trunk, center console, cupholders, and glovebox. Get rid of ANYTHING that might attract them, like food crumbs, wrappers, empty bottles, etc., and make sure all the trash has been emptied out. Vacuum and wipe all surfaces, and if you have any sticky stains on carpet or upholstery, clean them. #2: Try to find the nest. Do a little detective work to see where the ants are coming from. If you can find their nest, destroy it so they have to move on to establish a new home base. #3: Move your parking spot. Find a new place to park. You'll be able to go back to your old spot eventually, especially if you can locate the nest and destroy it, but for now, you want to confuse the ants and throw off their scent trails so they can no longer find your car. #4: Try an at-home solution. Once you've cleaned your car and moved it to a new location away from the ants, it's time to take care of the infestation. You can try an at-home remedy to start. Mix up two cups of water, three tablespoons of Dawn soap, and three tablespoons of salt in a spray bottle. Spray the ants directly with it to kill them; you can also use it to clean your car. Additionally, ants HATE citrus. Mix orange oil into your Dawn soap concoction for maximum deterrent power, or use a citrus-based cleaner when you clean your car. Hopefully, the scent will deter them from wanting to come back and will encourage the tenants to vacate. #5: Go big. If nothing else works for the ants in your car, go big. Hit Lowe's or Home Depot for ant spray to kill the ones you can find, and ant bait or traps to kill the ones that are hiding. Just be careful, especially if you routinely have kids or pets in the car with you. Let Toyota of Clermont help you with your pest problem! Need help getting rid of ants in the car? Call us!

Are you considering getting rid of your old car to put a new one in its place? Obviously, you can always sell or trade, but what are ALL of your choices when it comes to kicking your old car to the curb? Toyota of Clermont is here with answers and options. Explore all of them before you make your final decision! Five ways to get rid of your old car #1: Trade it in at a dealership. You can always bring your old car to Toyota of Clermont to explore the option of trading in. We'll make you a cash offer on the spot (we're always looking for more used cars to add to our preowned inventory) - our used car director can come outside to do an appraisal and inspect your vehicle as soon as you arrive. And not only that, but you can also just sell us your car if you're not going to buy a new one from us. Either way, you'll get a great cash offer on your old car. Plus, we handle all of the paperwork associated with the deal for you to save you time and money. #2: Sell it online. You can also sell your old car online to a company that buys and will come to pick up your vehicle from your house. The only drawback is that you won't get to haggle on the value at all - what you get is what you get since you're not interacting with an actual person at a dealership. #3: Sell it privately. Another great option for getting rid of your old car is to sell it privately to a buyer. This gives you more control over the process and lets you set the price you want for it, but it also means you have to do all of the legwork of listing it, setting up and conducting test drives, and then doing all of the transaction paperwork, including the tag and title transfer. If the extra time involved is worth it, then this method is for you, but not if you want a streamlined process where you just hand the keys over and call it a day. #4: Donate it to a good cause. Not looking to sell or trade and really just want to get your old car out of the driveway? Consider donating it to a local non-profit - they're always looking for vehicle donations. Plus, you'll get a tax write-off, which will save you money in the long run. Typically, the IRS will let you write off the amount that you would sell it for in an auction, but make sure you double-check with your accountant on the specifics. #5: Send it to a junkyard. If your car is well and truly done - meaning it's not worth selling, trading, or even donating - then it's time to junk it. Hire a junk removal service to haul it away or call a junkyard to have it towed there. You won't get any money (or goodwill), but it'll be out of your garage.

If you're considering adding a car spoiler to your current Clermont Toyota, good choice. This car accessory is an easy and affordable way to customize your car without having to put too much time or money into it, and it can also actually give you a performance boost. However, it's not something to do on a whim and our Clermont Toyota body shop techs are here to share tips. Find out what you should consider BEFORE you invest in a car spoiler! What you need to know before investing in a car spoiler Tip #1: Think about paint colors. If you buy a carbon fiber spoiler or one that's merely primed to be painted, then you're in good shape - you don't really need to worry about your car's current paint color. However, if you're buying a painted spoiler, make sure it matches the paint on your car. Keep in mind that paint codes are unique to makes and models so "close enough" isn't going to cut it - you want the match to be exact so your ride looks its best. Tip #2: Consider your car's overall design. Before you swipe your credit card for a car spoiler, do a bit of research to see what it's going to look like in real life. Instead of relying on edited photos on the internet (which use certain angles and lighting to look a particular way), see if you can find similar cars with the same spoiler in real life to see what it will look like on a day-to-day basis. You don't want to wind up with a car spoiler that looks silly on your vehicle. Tip #3: Know what maintenance will be involved. Car spoilers are just like any other part of your car - they need to be maintained. You should look into what type of care your new spoiler will need (washing, waxing, etc.) and be aware that also like any other car part, they can sustain damage. Dents, dings, scratches, and even wind damage are all possible, so be ready to make repairs as necessary. However, once you've done your research and prepped yourself to add a car spoiler, it's time to reap the benefits. These car accessories are a great way to make your Clermont Toyota truly stand out and look custom without having to invest in pricy accessories like a new paint job or new wheels. Additionally, did you know that car spoilers can actually enhance performance? They catch when you drive, and in turn push the rear of your car down. This causes improved handling without even having to touch anything under the hood. Find your car spoiler with Toyota of Clermont Ready to shop for your car spoiler?

Here at Toyota of Clermont, we get pretty excited about SEMA every year. New Toyota concepts are always rolled out for this enormous automotive show, and if there's anything we love, it's new Toyotas (especially ones that think outside of the box). This year definitely didn't disappoint as seven new Toyota concepts were unveiled, and our Clermont Toyota dealership has the details on each of them. Keep reading! #1: The "Tacozilla" Toyota Tacoma Camper: We've talked about this incredible concept camper before - at length. They should produce it. Period. #2: A souped-up 2022 Toyota Tundra: We're all eagerly awaiting the arrival of the 2022 Toyota Tundra (follow us on social for updates and we'll keep you posted on the ETA). Toyota debuted a lifted and decked out model at SEMA this year - it has a 3" lift and is sporting some of the 100+ accessories that will be available when this redesigned truck hits the market. #3: A 2022 Toyota Tacoma Overlanding Concept: If you're a fan of overlanding, you're going to love this new Toyota concept. Cruiser Outfitters and Toyota collaborated on this Tacoma to dream up a truck that's truly ready for anything. It offers features like an ARB summit combo bar with fog lights, an Ultra HD skid plate system, rock sliders, rocker protection, and an Old Man Emu BP-51 adjustable suspension system with Dakar leaf springs in the rear. #4: A 2022 Toyota Tundra TRD Desert Chase: This off-road support vehicle can take on the toughest terrain with ease. It was built by the Toyota Motorsports Garage Team and offers a new wide-body kit, a custom roll-bar with two spare tires mounted on it, a custom-mounted road jack, a long-travel suspension system, and other recovery equipment necessary for desert rescue. #5: A TRD Sport Trailer: If the new "Tacozilla" camper is a little much for you, consider this new Toyota concept trailer. The TRD Sport Trailer is constructed from a Tacoma pickup bed and boasts features like a scissor lift and an elevated platform, a Yakima four-person tent, a slide-out sink, a fridge,  a hot water heater, fresh and gray water tanks, a stove, and additional lighting for the campsite. #6: The GR Supra Heritage Edition: This Toyota concept has actually been unveiled once before, but it was to such fanfare that Toyota brought it back to SEMA for another go around. This GR Supra is retro-inspired with headlights, taillights, and a rear wing spoiler that hail back to the 1990s when it was in its heyday. It also boasts 500+ horsepower thanks to a retuned engine and a turbocharger, bigger brakes, a custom push-rod rear suspension, and bigger wheels and tires. #7: An open-top GR Supra Concept: This open-top new Toyota concept car is a feat of engineering. You can remove the top and stick it in the trunk to stow it, but there's no crossbar obstructing the view above. Instead, you'll see nothing but open air as engineers carefully designed this concept for structural ridigity and safety. We don't which - if any - of these new Toyota concepts will arrive at Toyota of Clermont (besides the 2022 Toyota Tundra - stay tuned). But we'll keep you posted! Call us for details at (352) 404-7000 or stop by and see us at 16851 State Road 50, just west of the Florida Turnpike.

This GR Supra is retro-inspired with headlights, taillights, and a rear wing spoiler that hail back to the 1990s when it was in its heyday. It also boasts 500+ horsepower thanks to a retuned engine and a turbocharger, bigger brakes, a custom push-rod rear suspension, and bigger wheels and tires. #7: An open-top GR Supra Concept: This open-top new Toyota concept car is a feat of engineering. You can remove the top and stick it in the trunk to stow it, but there's no crossbar obstructing the view above. Instead, you'll see nothing but open air as engineers carefully designed this concept for structural ridigity and safety.

Another week, another news roundup! November has arrived and with it brings the SEMA show, the holidays, cooler weather, and the promise of the arrival of new Toyotas very, very soon - we're looking at you, 2022 Toyota Tundra. Our Clermont Toyota dealership is here with a quick roundup of the latest new Toyota news. Happy November! An all-new electric Toyota is coming We've talked about the new Toyota bz4X before, back when it was a new concept car being introduced to the public. Well, it's making the leap from concept to production - it's been officially announced that this new Toyota will be made into a passenger vehicle in Japan first, and hopefully head stateside soon after. BZ stands for "beyond zero" and Toyota hopes that with this eco-friendly electric car they can not only offer a clean drive time solution but actually help to improve the environment as well.
