Level 4 Frequently Asked Questions

What does this mean for me as a customer of yours?

Under the level 4 alert, Toyota Stores are not considered as essential service and are therefore closed. The only grounds on which we can physically open is to repair vehicles for other essential services.

However, Toyota New Zealand wants to work with all our customers to help them through any questions they have regarding COVID-19 and our service to them. In your communications with us please ensure the details of your situation are clear so we can assist you as best as possible.
Will I now have to wait longer to get my new Toyota vehicle?

If you were due to receive your vehicle in the next month, then unfortunately yes, as under the government’s COVID alert conditions all our Toyota stores are closed. However, you will be contacted by your local store, when they are able to do so, to confirm any further details on vehicle delivery.

How does this affect your supply of vehicles into the country?

At this stage we are still ordering and arranging supply as freight ships are still able to enter the country. Domestic delivery will commence once alert levels have been lowered by the government.
