Massive £10 million fine for Toyota

We reported yesterday that there were more cars that were having to be recalled from Toyota and in all the chaos, they are going to have to cough up a heavy fine.

Its the biggest fine that has ever been handed out by the US department of transportation and even though Toyota are denying actually hiding the faulty vehicles, they are still accepting responsibility of not handling the situation better. With recalls still taking place for the SUVs and Lexus, it shows its still not over for Toyota and they are going to have to take responsibility for anything else that is coming. The problems so far that have been listed since the initial recall of Toyota motor vehicles include faulty accelerator problems, potential roll over issues, stability management and weight distribution issues.

New Fleet manager at Toyota & Lexus

Mark Roden has been hired as the General manager for Toyota and Lexus, who will deal with fleet and vehicle re-marketing. Mark has been a manager for both Lexus and Toyota’s Network general manager so it seems that he fit the requirements.

At the moment the market is being so hard for getting fleet sales in but with the latest technologies coming from Toyota and Lexus, they should maintain a good choice for fleet managers. Some of these include a new Toyota Prius and in general, hybrid technology. Mark took over from Richard Balshaw who was promoted to sales director who he will know report to.
