Toyota of Orlando answers your questions
What is Yakima? Yakima is a big-name outdoor company known for their car accessories, mainly their car racks. They have a wide variety of bike racks, boat mounts, cargo boxes, ski racks, cargo management, and more available for purchase.
What’s the reason for the partnership? After SEMA conducted research on the car accessory purchasing habits of Toyota customers they found that 90 percent of driver’s purchase car accessories and that 60 percent of them spend $1,500, minimum, on these additions. The research found the majority of car additions are typically purchased within the first 90 days of vehicle ownership and most consumers would prefer to buy them from a dealership but usually don’t due to a lack of availability. Therefore, Toyota and Yakima partnered up to increase availability and customer convenience.
What does the partnership mean for Toyota customers? Toyota drivers can now purchase car accessories right from our dealership. Plus, in-dealership purchasing allows Toyota of Orlando to provide the best financing options possible. Toyota customers can now have the best outdoor car gear for the best prices available with the best buying convenience on the market.
