Toyota Australia Exports 500,000th Vehicle to Saudi Arabia
Oct 20, 2010 By Toyota Australia.
Toyota Australia is set to export its 500,000th vehicle to Saudi Arabia tomorrow (21 October).
The milestone Toyota
Camry will be among more than 1,500 Australian-built Camry and Aurion sedans to be shipped on Neptune Leader.
Camry is the top-selling passenger vehicle in the Middle East and Saudi Arabia is the biggest market.
Toyota Australia has been exporting cars since 1986 and began shipments to the Middle East a decade later.
Since then, more than 870,000 Australian-made vehicles have been exported to more than 20 destinations.
Toyota's Australian manufacturing plant in the Melbourne suburb of Altona produces the petrol-electric Hybrid Camry, four-cylinder petrol Camry and V6 Aurion sedans for domestic and export markets.
More than 60 per cent of cars produced at Altona are destined for overseas customers.
In 2008 a record 101,668 locally built vehicles, valued at $1.3 billion, were exported.
This year's export total is expected to be more than 80,000 cars - a strong result in the face of the global economic downturn.
