TOYOTA Connected was born with the idea of Akio Toyoda, the founder of the company, “I want to know more about the customers. I want to know their real needs. I want direct contact with customers. “. We foresee an era when the Internet (IT) and the automobile business will merge, and we will use IT to connect people, cars, and society to deliver just-in-time services to customers. By doing so, we aim to create a enrich and exciting mobility society.
