Meet the 2018 Toyota Camry

How new is the 2018 Toyota Camry? For once, “All-New” is completely appropriate. This is the best new Toyota Camry Bell Road Toyota has offered our customers yet, full stop. What makes the newest version of this best-selling Toyota car so promising?

Green Cars at Bell Road Toyota

The Toyota Motor Company is synonymous with green cars these days, mostly on the strength of the Toyota Prius they introduced twenty years ago. Anyone looking for a green car will be glad to know that the green car selection at Bell Road Toyota has expanded quite a bit since then.  

2018 Toyota Model Preview Part 2

Last week, we previewed three Toyota models that will sport significant changes when they arrive for the 2018 model year. While we’re looking forward to the 2018 Toyota C-HR, Toyota Sienna, and Toyota Camry, that’s not all that’s in store. Here are three more models Bell Road Toyota is excited to offer our Phoenix and Scottsdale customers.

2018 Toyota Model Preview

We’re just about at the midpoint of 2017, and that means it’s just about time for the 2018 Toyota models to start arriving at our Toyota dealership. If you’re looking for a new car, SUV, van, or truck, there are some great reasons to visit Bell Road Toyota in the months ahead.

Toyota Lease Ending? Here's What to Do

Sometimes it seems like everyone loves new Toyota cars. We certainly see a lot of the Toyota Camry, Toyota RAV4, and Toyota Tacoma on the roads around Phoenix, AZ. But not everyone who comes to Bell Road Toyota is here to buy. In fact, roughly a third of all Toyota cars that leave dealerships each year are under lease. If you’re one of those lessees, we can help make the end of that lease easier for you.

There are a few dates to keep in mind as your lease draws to a close.

90 Days Before Lease Ends

This is a good time to decide what comes after your lease ends. You might decide to buy out your current lease, to purchase a different vehicle altogether, or take on another lease. During this time frame, you should also expect to hear from Toyota Financial Services.

60 Days Before Lease Ends

Once your lease is up, you may face charges for excess wear and tear. Since you probably don’t want to find out what you’re dealing with the day you turn in your vehicle and your keys, we suggest bringing your car, truck, or SUV to the dealership. We’ll conduct an assessment so you’ll know what to expect.

30 Days Before Lease Ends

If you haven’t already done so, the last month of your lease is time for any Toyota service and repairs your vehicle needs. It’s also a good time to contact Bell Road Toyota for a return date, to make the return, and meet any final obligations for mileage and wear overages. It’s also when you’ll work out the details on your next new Toyota car.

There are some other things that are worth keeping in mind.

•    You can take advantage of loyalty incentives provided through Toyota Financial Services. These can often be combined with dealer incentives and seasonal promotions. We’ve enjoyed having you as a customer, and we’d love to see you stick around!

•    Remember that your Phoenix Toyota dealer was in your corner when you took on your lease, and we’re still here to help. Any questions you have, and any help you need, is still right here at 2020 West Bell Road.

•    Finally, whether you leased or purchased through Bell Road Toyota, remember that our service and Toyota Finance departments are always here for you. 

Take Advantage of the Bell Road Toyota Military Discount

Memorial Day Weekend is almost upon us. We wanted to take some time out of the usual daily hustle and bustle to express our appreciation of those who’ve served their country. Since the usual “Thank you for your service” seems to fall a bit short, the Toyota finance department at Bell Road Toyota is offering our thanks in a somewhat more tangible form.

From now ’til May 31, 2017, Bell Road Toyota is offering a special $500 Military Discount toward the lease or purchase of a new Toyota vehicle. That makes this a great time to pull the trigger on that Toyota RAV4, Toyota Camry, or Toyota Tacoma you’ve been eyeing.

The discount is open to active duty, active reserve, or Ready Reserve service members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard and their families (including Gold Star families). Military retirees and veterans who are within one year of their retirement or discharge also qualify.

All you’ll need is one of the following:

•    Proof of status (Leave and Earning Statement, military ID, DD 214)

•    Qualifying salary

•    Credit approval by Toyota Financial Services via Bell Road Toyota

This offer is contingent on credit approval by Toyota Financial Services, and not everyone will qualify. It cannot be combined with certain other incentives. Delivery must be taken from dealer stock. You’re responsible for any applicable taxes and fees. Other terms and conditions apply; your Toyota dealer will provide you with full details.

If you’ve been waiting to get behind the wheel of a new Toyota car, SUV, truck, or van, your wait is over. Visit Bell Road Toyota at 2020 West Bell Road in Phoenix, AZ to browse our inventory and for more information on our manufacturer and Toyota dealer incentives. 

Technology Highlights in Toyota Cars

Finding the right Toyota car, truck, or SUV isn’t just about coming to your Phoenix Toyota dealership, even though that’s a great start. It’s also about finding the right combination of features and options that make your daily drive fun and rewarding. Luckily, the new Toyota vehicles at Bell Road Toyota are an embarrassment of riches when it comes to great tech features.

You’d have to set aside a couple of hours if we were to explain every bit of innovative technology that goes into a car like the 2017 Toyota Prius V. Instead, we’re going to dive deep on three key technologies that we think are particularly important.

Toyota Safety Systems

Toyota STAR Safety System and Toyota TSS (the latter of which will be standard on many more 2018 Toyota models) are among the reasons so many Toyota vehicles have top safety scores from the IIHS and NHTSA. More importantly, they keep you and your family safe. They include features like stability and traction control, lane departure warning, smart cruise control, and blind spot monitoring.

Toyota Entune

Toyota Entune works in tandem with your phone to support a wide range of functions. These include traffic and navigation, music, points of interest, hands-free calling and texting, and quite a bit else besides. Some features require a subscription (your Phoenix Toyota dealer will have details), but taken as a whole, Entune helps you get a lot more out of your Toyota Highlander or other new Toyota SUV.

Wireless Charging

Right now, Qi Wireless Charging is limited to upper trims on Toyota hybrid vehicles. It’s induction-based, so all you need to do is put your mobile device on a special charging mat. It’s handy if you don’t want wires cluttering your console.

Of course, not all technology is available on all models and trims, and the upper trims of cars like the Toyota Camry will have the best features available. Be sure to speak to your salesperson about your options. Bell Road Toyota is conveniently located at 2020 West Bell Road in Phoenix, AZ.
