			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>News report at SHAH ALAM, during 27 December 2011. In maintaining its lengthy tradition of getting world-class music artists to Malaysia, UMW Toyota Motor carried out the twentieth Toyota Classics performance on 10 November 2011, in the Dewan Filharmonik PETRONAS, Kl. Started like a unique yet sophisticated method to raise funds for that underprivileged, the Toyota Classics has developed right into a much-looked forward to annual event for that musically discerning, who&#8217;re delighted to understand their contribution will really make a difference to society.</p>
<p>â€œSince the beginning, we&#8217;ve supported 47 charitable and non-governmental organizations countrywide amounting to in excess of RM6 million until 2010. We&#8217;re glad to determine how our contributions make a positive change towards the lives of those within the organizations we&#8217;ve supported,â€ states En. Ismet Suki, Leader of UMW Toyota Motor.</p>
<p>Toyota Classics is just one of UMW Toyota Motorâ€™s primary support beams of Corporate Social Responsibility. Each year, the concert brings worldwide famous orchestras to Malaysian shores, supplying Malaysians the invaluable chance to savor world-class classical music without needing to travel 1000&#8242;s of miles all over the world.<span id="more-76"></span></p>
<p>During the last 2 decades, Toyota Classics is promoting a existence of their own, with performances by different orchestras and receivers. The philosophy behind the Toyota Classics programme remains, which would be to allow Malaysians to savor an awesome evening of music, simultaneously donate to charitable organisation.</p>
<p>2010 Classics featured the Northeast German Philharmonic Orchestra, whose performance in Kl marked the final leg of the Asian traveling tour covering Brunei, Vietnam, Korea and Taiwan. Underneath the masterful baton Thomas Dorsch, the German-based orchestra displayed two soloists, Vasko Vassilev around the violin and Pamela Nicholson the pianist. This is actually the second time the Northeast German Philharmonic has carried out here, getting carried out in the Toyota Classics in 2003.</p>
<p>The orchestra carried out twelve tunes to some rapt audience, which incorporated Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah Al-Haj, the Sultan of Selangor, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali, Kl mayor Tan Sri Ahmad Fuad Ismail and foreign dignitaries like the Japanese and German ambassadors. Top personnel from Toyota Mr. Katsuaki Watanabe, Senior Consultant towards the Board, Toyota Motor Corporation seemed to be present only at that yearâ€™s Classics like a show of support.</p>
<p>Arises from 2010 ticket sales and corporate donations came to RM318,500 were channeled to 3 charitable and non-governmental organizations for specific reasons. MAA-Medicare insurance Kidney Charitable organisation Fund will utilise the funds contributed for purchasing 3 dialysis machines, while Persatuan Orang-orang Cacat Anggota Malaysia is going to be buying a brand new van to exchange their existing the one that has already been into its 15th year on the highway. The rest of the would go to Persatuan Daybreak, a vocational training and employment center for those who have disabilities, to enhance their safety and dealing atmosphere at their center.</p>
<p>En. Ismet also said, â€œWe are touched to determine how these organizations are not only seen considering the physical needs from the disabled community but they are also strengthening these to take care of themselves with vocational training and job possibilities.â€</p>
<p>The Toyota Classics remains a satisfying event for UMW Toyota Motor as they could share the proceeds from the ticket sales and corporate donations in addition to expose the Malaysian public to first class musicals.</p>
<p>The Toyota Classics is area of the three social support beams of UMW Toyotaâ€™s CSR initiatives. Another two support beams would be the Atmosphere programmes for high school graduation students and also the road safety campaign, that is concentrating on preschool children.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 1994, Takeshi Uchiyamada, today Executive Vice-President and Chief Engineer world-wide for Toyota, was assigned to lead a team with a monumental challenge: create the car of the 21st century.<br />
<img class="aligncenter" src="http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/4011/hybridsynergydrive.jpg" alt="Toyota Hybrid Technology" /></p>
<p>With extensive research, Uchiyamada concluded that the car of the 21st century should be a vehicle that would be of the greatest use to the greatest number of people. In order to accomplish this, he focused on two of the biggest challenges facing existing vehicles: dependency on finite resources and environmental impact.</p>
<p>After examining all the technological avenues that might lead to this car of the 21st century, Uchiyamada found one that he believed was the most promising. It was one Toyota was working on since the 1960s: hybrid vehicles.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/4189/hybridsymbol2323x700gre.gif" alt="" width="650" /></p>
<p>Having narrowed the focus to hybrids, Uchiyamada spearheaded the development of Toyota Hybrid System, which powered the first generation Prius. While it met the criteria he had laid out, fuel efficiency and &#8220;eco-friendliness,&#8221; there was still room for improvement, Toyota made performance a top priority for the second generation Prius. The result was the development of Hybrid Synergy Drive.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <strong>Toyota Prius</strong> has become the worldwide benchmark in <strong>hybrid technology</strong>. With Toyotaâ€™s Hybrid Synergy Drive, the electric motor and petrol engine have been combined to serve as power sources to ensure an efficient drive, whilst performance is delivered at optimum levels.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/2501/mainzu.jpg" alt="Toyota Prius" width="650" /></p>
<p>The Toyota Prius has made its first appearance in Malaysia in its third generation. <strong>Toyota Malaysia</strong> has brought this technologically advanced vehicle to this country, and it is available in a range of exciting colours including Silver Metallic, White Pearl, Abyss Gray Metallic and Red Mica Metallic. You can own a Prius from only RM139,000, this is thanks to new tax incentives on hybrid vehicles that have been recently set by the government.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/1756/exhil.jpg" alt="Toyota Prius" width="650" /></p>
<p>Everything about the Toyota Prius signifies advancement and 21st century style.The exterior of the vehicle has been designed in a unique shape, the bonnet and windscreen slope steadily to join the roof, making it easy for air to glide off the vehicle, and thereby allowing for optimum aerodynamics. Toyota has also designed and constructed the Prius with lightweight body components, the lighter weight of the vehicle not only contributes to aerodynamics, but also ensures reduced fuel consumption. Toyota has added a distinct touch to the exterior of the Prius (which sets it apart from the other Toyota Vehicles) by adding a <strong>Hybrid Synergy</strong> Blue emblem and headlamps.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/1172/optimizing.jpg" alt="Toyota Prius" width="650" /></p>
<p>Beneath the Priusâ€™s bonnet lies futuristic technology, the Prius has been fitted with a truly impressive 1.8 litre 2ZR-FXE engine, which incorporates Toyotaâ€™s <strong>VVT-i technology</strong>, Toyotaâ€™s Exhaust Gas Recirculation system and an electric water pump. These technologies combine beautifully, allowing ultimate performance and maximum fuel efficiency to co-exist. Toyota has fitted the Prius with a <strong>Nickel-Metal Hydride</strong> (Ni-MH) battery, which has been engineered to supply the motor with an optimal level of electricity. It is an advanced innovation in that it does not need any maintenance, is compact and lightweight and lasts the lifetime of the vehicle. By running on the collaboration of the petrol engine and electric motor, emissions are considerably reduced. The Prius also has the feature of running on the electric motor alone, this will result in zero fuel consumption and zero emissions.</p>
<p><img src="http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/8774/gearal.jpg" alt="Toyota Prius" width="650/" /></p>
<p>The Toyota Prius has a cleverly devised braking system, it is a system consisting of <strong>Brake-force Distribution</strong>, <strong>Traction Control System</strong>, <strong>Vehicle Stability Control</strong>, <strong>Anti-lock Braking System</strong> and <strong>Electronic Power Steering</strong>. These sub-systems co-ordinate to allow for superior handling on any type of road, be it slippery, winding, or straight.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img815.imageshack.us/img815/9373/interiorh.jpg" alt="prius interior" width="650/" /></p>
<p><strong>Human-Centred Design: Ergonomic next-generation control system</strong><br />
<em>The driver&#8217;s cockpit is divided into two district zone for easy, intuitive access. The &#8220;command zone&#8221; is positioned in the centre cluster for immediate access to functions. The &#8220;Display zone&#8221; of the centralised Multi Information Display provides easy visibility to key information</em></p>
<p>The interior of the Prius is nothing short of magnificent with its revolutionary layout, comfortable seating space and versatility. The controls have been artistically and meticulously placed on the central cluster and steering wheel. The steering wheel has the convenient Touch Tracer, which allows the driver to access the <strong>Multi-Information Display</strong> without shifting attention from the road. The Head-Up Display is a very exciting addition to the Prius, it projects driving information on the lower windshield glass in front of the driver and reduces the need to divert attention from the road. The Prius has been designed with a convenient Smart Entry and Start System, which makes it easy to unlock and start the car. The seats of the Prius are large and supportive, and with the ample amount of the floor space, all passengers have a comfortable amount of leg room. The front seats of the Prius have slender seatbacks which allow for increased legroom for the passengers at the back. The front seats can also fully recline and the 60:40 split rear seats can be easily and quickly folded down to allow for more carrying space.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/3140/interior2i.jpg" alt="" width="650" /></p>
<p><strong>Advanced features</strong><br />
<em>The integration of cutting-edge technology contributes to driving pleasure. Display of various information such as system operation and driving status also helps the driver optimise a fuel-efficient driving style.</em></p>
<p>The Prius has been constructed with various safety features. It has a High Rigidity Body: the body of the car has been designed to absorb impact from a collision, and thereby reduce the risk of injury to the occupants. The vehicle has also been designed with front and rear crumple zones. The <strong>Hill-Start Assist</strong> is a new Toyota technology which maintains brake pressure on all four wheels for that moment when the driverâ€™s foot moves from the brakes to the accelerator: this prevents the car from rolling when moving off from a traffic light or stop street, and can also prove to be extremely helpful in slope situations.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/8674/interior3h.jpg" alt="" width="650" /></p>
<p><strong>A comfortable space</strong><br />
<em>The spacious cabin and meticulous attention to detail creates a warm and comfortable environment.</em></p>
<p><em>The product of the &#8220;minimum exterior, maximum interior&#8221; design, the Toyota Prius have a spacious interior that can be enjoyed by all passenger, and also gives them with ample luggage area.</em></p>
<p>The awards list of the Toyota Prius is endless and includes the Engine Technology International award for â€œBest Engine 1.4 litre -1.8 litreâ€ in 2005, the <strong>Green Engine of the Year award</strong> in 2008 and the <strong>Autocar Asean Award</strong> 2009 in the Hybrid Category.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The new Toyota Avanza is the product of a clever combination of attributes of the previous Avanza models together with modern, enhanced features. This new mini-MPV sports a contemporary look, and with its generous amount of space, it makes for the perfect family car.</p>
<p>Style is the keyword when it comes to the new Toyota Avanza. It is available in a range of colours, namely: Dazzling Silver, mysterious Gray Metallic, elegant Black Mica and classic White. The 1.5 variants of the new Avanza have a sleek chrome grille, which adds a sophisticated edge to the car. All of the variants come with multi-reflector headlamps, which are shaped to complement the face of the vehicle. The new Avanza has been designed with a bold form, but it has been cleverly contoured for aerodynamics: the corners of the Avanza are smooth and rounded and the vehicle lies low, allowing for ultimate stability.</p>
<p>Each variant comes with its own distinctive elegant touches to the exterior. Attractive 15 inch alloy wheels are available on the 1.5S and 1.5G variants. The 1.5 variants also come with a sleek chrome finishing on the handles and on the rear plate garnishing. A Sporty Aerokit is available on the 1.5S model: a front bumper spoiler, rear bumper spoiler and side skirtings give the new Avanza a racy and edgy look. The Sporty Aerokit is an optional accessory in the other variants.</p>
<p>The new Avanza might be a big, spacious vehicle, but Toyota has designed it to have a minimum turning radius of 4.7 metres, making it easy to park and perform u-turns.</p>
<p>Toyota has ensured that performance of the new Avanza lives up to its high standards by fitting the Avanza with Toyotaâ€™s renowned VVT-i engine. The VVT-i engine ensures optimum performance by automatically adjusting valve timing and supplying smooth acceleration. The VVT-i engine also ensures minimal fuel consumption and cleaner emissions.</p>

<p><strong>Rear Design of Altis</strong><br />
The rear is designed with strong intonations with extended corners on the lower bumper, creating an overall wider, more robust rear.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/1192/headlamps.jpg" alt="altis headlamp" /></p>
<p><strong>Headlamps and Rear lamps</strong><br />

<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img813.imageshack.us/img813/1182/hidv.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>HID Lights (2.0V only)</strong><br />
Brighter than conventional halogen headlamps, the <strong>High Intensity Discharge</strong> lights are also designed to last significantly longer while having lower energy consumption.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/7829/wheelgg.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>16&#8243; Wheels with 5-spoke Design (2.0V, 1.8G and 1.8E only)</strong><br />
The new 3-dimensional 5-spoke design exudes a strong and advanced image.</p>
<p>The secret to the efficiency of this vehicle lies in its technological engine, the new <strong>Corolla Altis</strong> is fitted with Toyotaâ€™s dual <strong>VVT-i engine</strong>, which intelligently adjusts the valve timing for optimum performance, under any operating condition, while simultaneously keeping fuel consumption to minimum levels. The dual VVT-i engine has been engineered to always produce superior performance, whether the engine is running at low speeds or high speeds.</p>
<p>The Toyota Corolla Altis makes for a perfect city vehicle, with its minimum turning radius of 5 metres, parking, u-turns and sharp turns have never been so easy.</p>
<p>All of the variants of the <strong>Corolla Altis</strong> are automatic transmission. The 1.6E is a 4-speed transmission and comes fitted with Toyotaâ€™s <strong>Super Electronic Controlled Transmission</strong> technology, which allows for smooth and easy gear changes. The 1.8E, 1.8G and 2.0V variants are 7-speed transmission and come with Toyotaâ€™s CVT-i technology, the CVT-i technology provides linear acceleration after each change in gear and contributes to the overall fuel efficiency of the car. The <strong>Corolla Altis </strong>also comes with the option of a thrilling 7-speed Sports Sequential Shift which gives the driver sheer power over gear ratios and offers the driver control that is comparable to manual transmission, while still having the ease of automatic transmission.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img852.imageshack.us/img852/4686/20090308spyshotcorolla2.jpg" alt="" width="650/" /><strong>Dual VVT-i Engine for Toyota Altis</strong><br />
The dual variable valve timing with intelligence engine provides optimal valve timing for any driving condition by crontrolling both the intake and exhaust camshafts to promote valve timing  that is optimally suited to engine operating conditions.</p>
<p>The result is a highly efficient system that provides more power and yet delivers excellent fuel efficiency while giving you more torque at low engine speeds and better power output at high speeds.</p>
<p>The interior of the <strong>Toyota Altis </strong>is spacious, with large seats and ample legroom. The 1.8G and 2.0V variants come with an 8-way powered driverâ€™s seat, making it simple and easy for the driver to adjust the seat to the required height and seating position. In collaboration with this, Toyota has added a rather unique design feature, the steering wheel can be easily tilted to the desired position and can also be brought more forward or placed more backward for ultimate driving comfort.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/3751/3dashboard.jpg" alt="altis dashboard" width="650/" /></p>
<p>The boot space of the Corolla Altis has a whopping 475L capacity, and this can be extended even further by folding the rear seats flat. Toyota has put much thought into the interior finish of the vehicle, the dashboard has a high-quality trim and, depending on the variant, controls have been placed strategically on the central cluster and steering wheel for ease of access. The <strong>Corolla Altis</strong> has also been fitted with a Multi-Information Display, this can prove to be a very useful tool to the driver as it provides vital information such as the fuel consumption, vehicle speed and elapsed time.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/3408/bootspace.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>Trunk Space</strong><br />
The low loading height, shallow depth and wide openning make it easier for you to fill and retrieve items from the trunk. The already generous 475L space is made even greater when the rear seats are folded.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/5320/interiorb.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong><br />
Dashboard and Interior</strong><br />
The new dashboard trim creates a refined atmosphere in the cabin while the 3-dimensional centre cluster design expands the curves of the instrument panel.</p>
<p>Safety is always the top priority on Toyotaâ€™s list. The new <strong>Toyota Corolla Altis </strong>comes fitted with special large diameter disc brakes, they provide superior stopping power and provide you with ultimate peace of mind when driving in potentially hazardous conditions, such as in heavy rain or on busy highways. The body of the Corolla Altis has also been designed to Toyotaâ€™s body specifications: the Global Outstanding Assessment Body structure of the vehicle disperses impact energy throughout the frame of the vehicle, thereby lessening the impact of a collision, and reducing the risk of injury to the passengers.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/3066/99811147.jpg" alt="" width="650/" /></p>
