More specifically, Toyota plans to release a new plug-in hybrid model, which proves…

Do you ever wish that your Toyota Prius had a little more kick to it? We here at Hoy-Fox Toyota don't blame you.

This new group was formed in January of 2011, and its aim is to team with some of…

Hoy-Fox Toyota remembers a time when owning your first car as a teenager was a serious status symbol. As Kristin Nevels, of the American Automobile Association puts it, "It was a rite of passage and something to look forward to. You were only one of the cool kids if you drove and had your own vehicle."¹ These days, however, teenagers seem to be losing interest in cars, as new means of staying connected don't require them to be out on the road. Take for example, Facebook, Twiiter, or the introduction of the Smartphone. These services and devices are…

Only one day after Toyota celebrated the grand opening of its new production facility in Mississippi, key personnel headed north of the border to Canada to celebrate a production milestone there as well. This one, however, wasn't the opening of a new plant, but rather the celebration of the hard work of another.

More specifically Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada has now been producing some of the most reliable vehicles in the world for 25 years now. The first plant, which is located in Cambridge, Ontario, first opened its doors in 1986. It had an annual production capacity of 50…

Toyota already holds the top spot for green car engineering, such as hybrid powertrains found in the new Toyota Prius line of vehicles. To further advancements in travel and fuel consumption, the Japanese auto maker is looking to ethanol. A new yeast (not the bread kind) is being tested by the auto maker to help make a better burning alternative fuel.

This newly developed yeast efficiently ferments xylose, a sugar produced when plant fibers are broken down, and is resistant to fermentation-inhibiting substances.

The newly developed yeast achieves one of the highest ethanol fermentation levels in the world, and is…
