Toyota praised for Motability support
publication date: Jul 15, 2009
Toyota (GB) PLC has been recognised as the top
Manufacturer Partner of the Year up to 10,000 units at the annual
Supplier Awards presented by Motability Operations, the company which
manages the Motability Car Scheme.
Setting standards
for excellence and sharing best practice, the Supplier Awards take
place each year and recognise the manufacturers, dealer groups,
individual car dealers and aftersales specialists, as well as key
suppliers to the Car Scheme who all deliver service to the
organisations’ half a million customers every day.
Mike Betts,
chief executive, Motability Operations, said, “This has been a positive
year for the Motability Scheme and key to this has been the work of our
business partners and suppliers who provide the highest levels of
service for our customers.
"Toyota (GB) PLC should be truly
proud of their achievement as the Manufacturer Partner of the Year (up
to 10,000 units) at the 2009 Motability Operations Supplier Awards.
They have performed a key role in helping deliver exemplary levels of
customer satisfaction and setting the standard for business
excellence.”
Toyota (GB) PLC was specifically commended for
several reasons including its commitment to competitive pricing on the
Motability Scheme through 2008 and ongoing support for customers
through the Toyota Centre network.
The launch of the iQ
alongside new Avensis in 2008 added a new dimension to Toyota’s line-up
available on the Motability Scheme and contributed towards a 47 per
cent increase in Toyota registrations in 2008. Furthermore, with the
introduction of new lower CO2 engines, Toyota Optimal Drive technology
with MultiDrive transmissions, and third generation Hybrid Synergy
Drive, Toyota has shown its commitment to leading the way in reducing
CO2 emissions.
Accepting the Award presented by news reader Huw
Edwards, Toyota’s Commercial Director, Jon Williams said, “We are
hugely pleased that our commitment and excellence has been recognised
as the top Manufacturer Partner of the Year (up to 10,000 units), and
we look forward to continuing to work with Motability Operations into
the future.” | | Motability offers disabled people a worry-free motoring
package including a brand new car every three years plus insurance,
servicing and maintenance, breakdown assistance from the RAC, an
allowance of 60,000 miles over a three year period and free tyre and
windscreen replacement.
