Some vehicle models include an Accident Assistant feature that automatically detects potential damage to your vehicle while driving, including accidents.
Company Car Drivers
We understand that you don't just need a company car for your work life, it has to be right for home too. With Toyota, you can choose from a wide range of vehicles that make the perfect company car, with our hybrid and electric range offering lower benefit in kind and fuel costs than a conventionally powered car.
Our Range
From compact hybrids to plug-in hybrids and our All-Electric Toyota bZ4X, our stylish exteriors, and efficient powertrains make Toyota the perfect choice for your next company car. Our vehicles are designed with a range of features to make every journey enjoyable, and they offer impressively low benefit-in-kind (BIK) payments. |
Accident Assistant is automatically activated as part of your Standard Services subscription for supported vehicles, so there’s no need for manual activation.
The Accident Assistant feature is constantly learning to better detect real accidents. Sometimes it may flag events that are not accidents, such as sudden acceleration, hard braking or driving over a large bump.
The Accident Assistant only works while your vehicle is running. When your vehicle is parked and turned off, the system isn’t actively monitoring for damage or incidents. So unfortunately, any damage that happens while your vehicle is parked won’t be detected by the system.
There can be delays in showing events, particularly if your vehicle hasn’t had a stable internet connection to send the data. Severe crashes involving airbag deployment may also take longer to process and send alerts. It’s also possible that certain types of collisions might not be detected by the system.
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.
Crash notifications are sent to our systems. If you’ve chosen to consent to ‘connected vehicle assistant’, your information may be shared with dealerships in our network so they can contact you to help arrange repairs.
The Accident Assistant is an integral part of the Standard Services subscription and is designed as a core safety feature. Sharing your crash information with dealerships in our network, however, is entirely based on your consent. You have the option to choose not to consent to any processing or communication of your crash information with dealers. If you wish to disable Accident Assistant completely, the only way to do so is by unsubscribing from the Standard Services.
No, the Accident Assistant doesn’t directly contact emergency services. It sends information to our system, which may prompt follow-up actions like a call from your dealership to arrange repairs. Always call emergency services yourself if you need immediate help.
It's important to note that sharing accident data for insurance or legal purposes is not automatic, it's entirely up to you. If you wish, you can manually generate and download a report containing the accident data and any photos you've uploaded, which you may then share with third parties such as insurance companies or legal representatives.
Benefits of choosing Toyota for your company car
Efficient electrified company cars
Our plug-in hybrids and electric vehicles offer low company car BIK payments, and can be more cost-effective to run than conventional cars.
Plug-in hybrids can be charged to offer a pure-electric driving range of up to 53 miles** dependent on model, switching to self-charging hybrid when the battery runs low. Pure electric cars run on battery power only.
When it comes to charging, most people charge their plug-in hybrid or electric company car at home or work which is convenient, and cost effective too, especially with off-peak energy tariffs.
Use our cost calculator to estimate how much it would cost to drive one of our plug-in hybrid or electric cars.
Wide range of hybrid cars
With over 25 years' experience in producing hybrid cars, you can rely on us for a wide choice of models and advanced technology as standard.
Our hybrid cars are fuelled with petrol and switch between electric energy and a blend of petrol and electric power to maximise performance. There is no need to plug-in a hybrid car.
As hybrid CO2 emissions are lower than conventionally powered equivalent cars you can pay less benefit in kind, and lower your fuel costs.
Advanced technology as standard
We provide advanced technology in all of our cars, such as smartphone integration through Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™.
Keep connected to your car with the MyToyota App, where you can use features such as find my car, and remote heating or cooling to get your car to your desired temperature before you start your journey.
All models have comprehensive, and advanced safety features as standard to keep you and others on the road safer.
Outstanding service & reliability
Our dealer network can support you throughout your journey in finding your next company car, from taking a test drive, and choosing the right car to suit your work and home needs, to servicing and maintaining your vehicle.
