The History Of Toyota - At A Glance Toyota is one of the biggest vehicle manufacturers, and one of the most widely known companies, in the world today. Weaving History Towards the end of the nineteenth century, Sakichi Toyoda invented Japan's first power loom, revolutionising the country's textile industry. January 1918 saw him create the Toyoda Spinning and Weaving Company, and with the help of his son, Kiichiro Toyoda, Sakichi fulfilled his lifelong dream of building an automatic loom in 1924. The establishment of Toyoda Automatic Loom Works followed in 1926. Kiichiro was also an innovator, and visits he made to Europe and the USA in the 1920s introduced him to the automotive industry. With the £100,000 that Sakichi Toyoda received for selling the patent rights of his automatic loom, Kiichiro laid the foundations of Toyota Motor Corporation, which was established in 1937. One of the greatest legacies left by Kiichiro Toyoda, apart from TMC itself, is the Toyota Production System. Kiichiro's "just- in-time" philosophy - producing only precise quantities of already ordered items with the absolute minimum of waste - was a key factor in the system's development. Progressively, the Toyota Production System began to be adopted by the automotive industry across the world. Rising from the ashes of industrial upheaval in post-war Japan, Toyota has become the largest vehicle manufacturer in Japan with over 40% market share. Toyota began to make inroads into foreign markets in the late 1950s. The first Crown models arrived in the USA in 1957, and by 1965, with models such as the Corolla, Toyota began to build its reputation and sales to rival those of domestic producers. The first Toyota imported into Europe was via Denmark in 1963. Toyota has con-tinued to grow in Europe's sophisticated and complex market, and in 2000 the company delivered its ten millionth car to a customer in Germany. In fact, growth is currently one of the main words in Toyota's European vocabulary, and the com-pany plans to reach annual sales of 800,000 in Europe by 2005. Toyota is number one for customer satisfaction in the majority of European countries and has built an excellent reputation across Europe for reliability and customer service. This enviable reputation, along with the support of a network of more than 25 distributors and 3,500 sales outlets, are important factors in supporting Toyota's European sales growth in the coming years

Introduction Toyota is a world leader in the research and development of advanced automobile technology. Creating intelligent solutions for today's mobility challenges and taking responsibility for future generations. That's the mission that motivates Toyota.

Innovation The quest for innovation is the foundation for Toyota's new technology concepts. Unconventional ideas need room for creativity and the technologies of the future need testing in real-life conditions. This is why Toyota develops concept cars such as p.o.d or FXS. Take a look at Toyota's most recent concept cars and get a first glimpse of the vehicles which may, one day, satisfy the needs of tomorrow's drivers. Engines Engine technology is one of Toyota's greatest assets. Toyota's award-winning engine range reflects the high design and quality standards set by its engineers. Toyota engines are developed for performance and responsiveness with a big focus on reducing emissions and saving fuel. Today Toyota brings these benefits to customers with advanced variable valve technology (VVT-i) petrol engines, common-rail turbo diesels (D-4D), and with the unique Toyota Hybrid System (THS). Safety Safety is a top priority for Toyota: Advanced steering, braking and traction control technologies help keep your Toyota on the road and out of trouble. In addition, every new Toyota model is carefully designed to maximize safety, using computer simulations and real-life crash tests. The body and chassis are built to absorb impact and provide maximum occupant protection, whilst SRS airbags in place in case of a collision. Hopefully you will never see our safety features in action, but you will feel the confidence every time you sit behind the wheel.

Engines VVT-I (Variable Valve Timing with intelligence) Why VVTI

In contrast to the fixed valve timing of conventional engines, the VVT-I system an computer controlled mechanism that continually varies the timing for open and closing the intake valves in accordance with the vehicle's operating condit

By determining the level of performance that is demanded of the engine at a g time by way of the driver's accelerator operation and the engine rpm, the VVT enables the overall performance of the engine to be enhanced all the way from low to the high rpm range. Design VVT-I is comprised of three major components 1.The electronic control unit(ECU), which calculates optimum intake valve timing based on engine operating conditions. 2.The oil control valve (OCV), which controls hydraulic pressure under the ECU's instruction and 3.The VVT pulley, which continuously changes the intake valve timing using hydraulic pressure. The VVT-I is an engine control system that has achieved high levels of the seemingly opposing performances of Higher power out-put, Lower fuel consumption, Cleaner exhaust gases. How VVT-I will help ? Engines - D-4D D-4D High technology, clean diesel Originally introduced in Europe in the top selling Avensis range, D-4D is widely recognised as

one of the most advanced diesel technologies on the market today. Toyota D-4D engines are available on select models of Yaris, Yaris Verso, Corolla Verso, Innova, Avensis, Avensis Verso, RAV4, Land Cruiser and Previa models. Until recently, diesel engines relied on relatively simple technology with a low-pressure mechanical injector delivering fuel to a pre-combustion chamber in the cylinder head, where a single ignition - fired by the intense heat of high compression - takes place. The system was reasonably fuel efficient but lacked precision and refinement, leading to vibration and noise. Fuel combustion can be incomplete, allowing smoke and other emissions to pass into the exhaust. D-4D components Toyota's common rail system makes use of a high pressure pump and intelligent, computer controlled injectors to deliver precisely the right amount of fuel, at precisely the right time, directly into the centre of the combustion chamber.
