Exploring Toyota's Body Type Options

If you want to buy a pre-owned car in the UAE, you'll be looking for something which is good quality, reliable and economical. Buying a car is one of the most expensive purchases you'll ever make (second only to buying a house), so looking for one that ticks all your boxes is essential, especially regarding your style, space and body type requirements.

Toyota has a diverse range of body types to suit your preferences and fit seamlessly into your lifestyle, whether you're seeking a compact and fuel-efficient sedan, a versatile and spacious SUV, or a practical and eco-friendly hybrid.

Fortunately, Al-Futtaim Toyota has a huge selection of top-quality, stylish used cars in all body type categories. Here's our pick of the best Toyota body type and engine options:

Sedans and crossovers

Let's start with two popular categories: sedans and crossovers. Sedans are sleek and stylish in design and characterised by a separate trunk compartment for ample luggage space. Crossovers feature high ground clearance and are robust in design to handle a range of driving conditions and terrains. They typically feature ample interior space, flexible seating arrangements and large cargo areas.

Toyota is well-known for producing outstanding quality sedans. The Toyota Yaris is a classic sedan offering excellent performance and fuel economy. This four-door sedan has a mid-range 1.5Ltr engine, so it has the 'legs' to cope with a highway run yet is economical around town. With a spacious cargo area, it's also great for those weekends away.

When it comes to crossovers, the Toyota Rush is an outright winner. This model also has a 1.5Ltr engine and delivers a fuel economy figure of around 16.3km/Ltr. With seven seats and plenty of space for luggage, it's an incredibly practical and family-friendly choice.

Hybrids

Hybrid cars come in various body types and are a fantastic choice for those looking to cut their motoring costs and be kind to the environment, especially if you do a lot of commuting and in-town driving. Not only does this mean you're utilising electric power for your commutes, but you can also switch to the petrol engine for those longer trips.

Toyota has many hybrid vehicle body types to choose from, including sedans, crossovers and SUVs. If you want to combine the benefits of a compact crossover body type with a hybrid engine, the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid is the best choice. With a sleek and modern exterior and a spacious interior, it provides ample leg room and luggage space, and its 1.8Ltr engine, combined with a powerful electric motor for in-town driving, makes it incredibly economical to run.

SUVs

SUVs, or Sport Utility Vehicles, are popular and affordable for families and those needing a little extra cargo space. With spacious interiors, typically more seating capacity, and storage space, they're the perfect wagon for long, comfortable car journeys that accommodate your family and their luggage.

Toyota has a wide range of SUVs with hybrid, electric or traditional engines, each designed to suit your needs. Whether you opt for the Toyota C-HR Hybrid for a compact and cheap-to-run option with 377-litre luggage capacity or the Toyota bZ4X electric for its ample passenger space and 452 litres of luggage capacity, you'll find the right Toyota SUV.

Cutting the cost with financing

Once you've found the perfect Toyota to suit your style, space and engine requirements, you'll need to find a way to finance your purchase. The obvious way to spread the cost is to go for a finance deal that lets you pay a set amount every month.

Finance deals on used cars include a year's warranty, which can be extended for an additional charge. This gives you peace of mind that if anything goes wrong, you're protected financially. Look for deals that include servicing offers, too.

If you want to sell your car in the UAE, the best way to do it is through a dealer rather than through a private sale. With a dealership sale, you get the full market value of your car, with the money paid into your account straight away or put towards your next purchase.
