Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) has launched its first Company Owned Toyota Used Car Outlet (TUCO) in Guwahati, marking the third such facility in India. The new 4,000-square-foot showroom can display over 15 certified pre-owned Toyota vehicles and represents the company’s strategic expansion into the Northeast region.
Each vehicle at the outlet undergoes a rigorous 203-point inspection by Toyota-trained technicians, ensuring high quality and reliability. The facility offers customers a transparent buying experience with features like online vehicle valuation and a comprehensive warranty of up to 30,000 kilometers or two years. Mr. Takashi Takamiya, Vice President of Toyota Kirloskar Motor, highlighted the importance of the used car sector to the company’s growth strategy. The company has already delivered 1,000 vehicles through its TUCO outlets since entering the used car market in 2022.
With the Indian used car market expected to grow at an 8% CAGR, TKM sees significant potential in the Northeast. The Guwahati outlet aims to meet the rising demand for high-quality pre-owned vehicles and supports the Government of India’s development plans for the region. Mr. Atul Sood, Project Vice President, emphasized the outlet’s role in providing a reliable and transparent platform for buying and selling Toyota vehicles in the Northeast.
