TOYOTA BECOMES FIRST SINGLE LINE MANUFACTURER TO SELL 3 MILLION CERTIFIED USED VEHICLES*

Toyota marks milestone by giving away 3 millionth vehicle to Chicago area customer 

On February 9, 2011, Toyota Motor Sales, USA, Inc. announced that it is the first single line manufacturer to sell 3 million certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles within program history. Toyota marked the unprecedented event by giving away a 2008 Sienna to the 3 millionth Toyota Certified Used Vehicle buyer. 

Bob Carter, Toyota Division Group Vice President and General Manager presented a check in the amount of $22,470 to the 3 millionth customer, Sara Hirschhorn of Chicago, Illinois, to reimburse her for the purchase price of the 2008 Sienna. Hirschhorn, a nurse at the NorthShore University HealthSystem Evanston Hospital in Cook County, traded in a 2002 Hyundai Elantra to become a member of the Toyota family.   


Toyota also contributed a matching donation of $22,470 to the NorthShore University HealthSystem Foundation in Hirschhorn's honor to commemorate the sale. 

"Toyota offers reliability, which is very important to my husband and me," said Hirschhorn. "We loved the ride quality and fuel efficiency." A mother of two young children, she purchased her Sienna at Schaumburg Toyota alongside a staff she described as "helpful and friendly." "We congratulate Sara on her purchase", said Carter. "With consistently high resale values, Toyota Certified Used Vehicles are a smart choice." Please click below to watch Sara Hirschhorn accept the $22,470 check!
