Something big is coming as UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) invites Malaysians on a journey that will give them the opportunity to experience a part of the future, today.

Currently, the company is withholding all information on this matter as they will only disclose the full details this September 27.

“At the risk of not revealing too much, let me just say we will be making a detailed announcement about this very soon, and it will have a big impact on not only the brand but the industry as a whole, and the lifestyle as well as choices that we have become so accustomed to,” commented UMW Toyota Motor’s deputy chairman Akio Takeyama.

According to Toyota, this journey promises greater excitement, silence, harmony, energy, endurance and power, an experience that will inevitably become a life changing one.

“Toyota Motor Corporation continues to be at the forefront of pioneering new frontiers and it has gone one step further to cement this with a global commitment by 2050. We are faced with the prospect of an exciting new era, one that will plot the course well into the future for generations to come,” he further added.

The company also stated that this initiative goes beyond the automotive industry and beyond the manufacturing and assembly of cars.

UMW Toyota Motor’s president Ravindran K., remarked, “The availability of tomorrow’s possibilities today will quickly transform Malaysia’s economic and social landscape. The way forward is to commit and push ahead, even if it means breaking boundaries and challenging conventional ways.”

That said, stay tuned to the announcement via the company’s website at www.toyota.com.my or log on to its social media pages on Facebook and Instagram for full details.
