Toyota Auto Insurance said today that the automaker’s branded insurance creation is now available to customers in Texas. Toyota Auto Insurance* offers consumers a flexible policy purchase process via Toyota’s mobile app, call center agents, participating Toyota dealerships and the ToyotaAutoInsurance.com website.
“We’re thrilled to expand Toyota Auto Insurance to customers in our home state,” said Rob Spencer, Toyota Insurance chief operating officer. Toyota of course is not alone. At least 18 automakers have started insurance products based on telematics using connected car capabilities to determine rates.
Introduced to some markets in 2021, Toyota Auto Insurance claims to offer customers customizable coverage at affordable rates. Expanding into the Lone Star State represents a symbolic accomplishment of sorts for Toyota. Texas the nation’s second most populous state,. It’s also home to Toyota’s North American headquarters and Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Texas (TMMTX). The San Antonio manufacturing facility produces the Toyota Tundra full-size pickup truck and Sequoia three-row SUV.
Toyota Auto Insurance is now available in Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee, South Carolina and Texas. Additional states are coming.
