When a crash is detected, the system collects data including the following:
- Time and date of the event
- Vehicle speed at the time of impact
- Direction and severity of the impact
- GPS location
This data helps assess the accident and support further analysis.
Collision notifications are sent to our systems.

For more information on how your data is processed, please refer to the Connected Vehicle Privacy Notice in the app:
- Open MyToyota app and select your Account
- Navigate to Legal Info
- Click on Privacy Notice
Accident Assistant is an integral part of the Standard Services subscription and is designed as a core safety feature. Sharing your collision information with Toyota Accident Care, however, is entirely based on you enabling ‘Connected Vehicle Assistance’. You also have the option to choose not to consent to any processing or communication of your collision information with Toyota Accident Care. If you do not wish to be contacted by Toyota Accident Care you can disable Connected Vehicle Assistance here:
- Log in to the MyToyota app and select your Account.
- Navigate to Vehicle Consent.
- Select the relevant vehicle.
- Go to Privacy Choices.
- Turn off Connected Vehicle Assistance and save your selection

Your Performance Score shows how efficiently and smoothly you drive, based on data collected from your vehicle during each trip.
It’s calculated as a weighted average of your trip scores, considering the total distance driven per trip. The overall score focuses on two main aspects: acceleration and braking.
- Gentle acceleration helps reduce consumption and vehicle wear
- Gentle braking helps you stay safe by keeping distance and anticipating obstacles
The service also provides a detailed score breakdown of your driving behaviour for each trip and monthly period. This includes metrics like acceleration, braking, and constant speed, when available, showing you how consistently you maintained your speed. If most of your driving happens in city conditions, your average speed may be too low for a constant speed score to appear.
The Performance Score and its details aim to help you understand your driving habits and suggest small changes that could improve efficiency and boost your vehicle's overall performance over time
Driving Analytics, Hybrid or EV Coaching is a service designed to help you understand and refine your driving style. Using sensor data from your connected vehicle, including acceleration, braking, and constant speed, it generates a trip score ranging from 0 to 100, reflecting how smoothly and efficiently you drive.
Please note that the accuracy of the data used in these services should be read as indicative of magnitude rather than exact figures.
In addition to scoring your trips, the service provides you with trip summary data to give you a comprehensive view of your driving habits.
Driving Analytics, Hybrid or EV Coaching is available for individual trips as well as in a cumulative monthly overview. In the monthly overview, you can also access a graph displaying your daily driving analytics throughout the month.
Please note that the accuracy of the data used in this service should be read as indicative of magnitude rather than exact figures.
What’s the difference between the 3 services?
Each of these features provides personalised insights to help you make the most of your vehicle's performance and driving experience:
Driving Analytics is available for all connected vehicles
- Hybrid Coaching is designed for hybrid vehicles
- EV Coaching is tailored for fully electric vehicles
A trip may be missing from Driving Analytics, Hybrid or EV Coaching for several reasons:
- Connected Services not activated: Make sure the Standard Services are activated in the Connected Services Centre - My Garage in the App.
- Profile not linked: Link your profile to the Multimedia system ( the head unit) in your vehicle so trip data is recorded in your App.
- Privacy Mode enabled: At the end of the trip, if your vehicle location sharing is disabled, then your trip data will not be saved. If you want to see trip data, please ensure that the location sharing is enabled. You can refer to Privacy Mode section (MyGarage) in the app to check the status of location data sharing. To find out more, refer to questions about Privacy mode under category "Account".
- No Trips Yet: Driving Analytics becomes available after your first recorded trip.
- Short Trips: Very short journeys (approximately less than 50 meters and 10 seconds) may not be saved to avoid clutter in the App.
- GPS signal Issues: Trips may not record correctly if you park in areas with limited or absence of coverage of GPS signals (for example, underground parking). They may appear later once the signal improves.
- Data Sync Delay: Trip data may take a few hours to appear.
- System Maintenance: Temporary outages or updates may affect trip recording.
If trips are still missing, please go to the Contact Us or App Support sections of the app.
Trip data may appear inaccurate for a few reasons:
- Privacy Mode partially enabled: During a trip, if your vehicle location sharing is disabled for certain parts of the trip, then your trip data and route details may get skewed, resulting in inaccurate trip data visible in the app. When the vehicle location is unavailable during a trip, our systems create route data based on available maps and optimized routes for selected destinations, which may not be the actual route travelled. To find out more, refer to questions about Privacy mode under category "Account".
- Poor GPS signal: Driving through tunnels, underground parking, or areas with poor GPS coverage can interrupt trip logging
- Missing constant speed data: If most of your driving is in the city, your average speed may be too low, which may prevent constant speed score to be displayed.
If the issue persists, please go to the Contact Us or App Support sections of the app.
*Connected service features may vary among model and grades. Free trial length varies between models, grades, and features, after expiry payment is required. UK features may vary.
