Veelgestelde vragen over Connected Services

  1. Alles

Connected Services zijn een pakket slimme functies die je auto verbinden met je digitale leven. Ze maken autorijden gemakkelijker, veiliger en aangenamer – zowel wanneer je onderweg bent als wanneer je niet in de auto zit.
Deze services zijn gebaseerd op twee belangrijke onderdelen:
 

Mobiele app (MyToyota / Lexus Link+)

De mobiele app fungeert als je afstandsbediening en digitale cockpit:

  • Toegang op afstand: Start of stop de motor, vergrendel of ontgrendel de portieren en bedien op afstand de klimaatregeling, portieren en alarmlichten

  • Voertuiglokalisatie: Vind eenvoudig waar je auto geparkeerd staat

  • Routeplanning: Plan routes en stuur deze direct naar het navigatiesysteem van je auto

  • Onderhoud & voertuigstatus: Ontvang meldingen wanneer onderhoud nodig is en bekijk rapporten over de voertuigconditie

  • Rijgegevens: Inzicht in brandstofniveau, kilometerstand en ritgeschiedenis

  • Meldingen: Blijf op de hoogte met realtime updates over je voertuig
     

Multimediasysteem

Het multimediasysteem in de auto verbindt je smartphone en verrijkt je rijervaring:

  • Smartphone-integratie: Gebruik apps zoals Spotify, WhatsApp, Audible, Google Maps en Waze direct via het display van je auto

  • Spraakbediening: Bedien apps en navigatie via Siri of Google Assistant

  • Navigatie & waarschuwingen: Ontvang realtime verkeersinformatie, flitsmeldingen en zoek eenvoudig naar interessante locaties

Let op: beschikbare functies kunnen verschillen per model en per markt.

Je kunt Connected Services op elk moment gebruiken via de MyToyota-app. Er zijn echter een aantal belangrijke voorwaarden die van invloed zijn op het moment waarop services en gegevens beschikbaar zijn.
 

Wanneer Connected Services het beste werken

  • Beschikbaarheid van gegevens
    Autogegevens worden naar de app verzonden zodra de motor is uitgeschakeld. De details van je laatste rit zijn kort na het uitzetten van de motor zichtbaar in de app.

  • Mobiele dataverbinding vereist
    Voor het verzenden van gegevens is een stabiele mobiele netwerkverbinding nodig. Wanneer je bijvoorbeeld ondergronds parkeert of je in een gebied met slechte dekking bevindt, kan het synchroniseren van gegevens worden vertraagd.
     

Veelvoorkomende redenen waarom services niet (goed) werken of gegevens ontbreken

  • Connected Services zijn niet geactiveerd
    Controleer of Standard Services zijn ingeschakeld in het Connected Services Centre.

  • Multimediasysteemprofiel niet gekoppeld
    Zorg ervoor dat je gebruikersprofiel in het multimediasysteem is gekoppeld aan je MyToyota-account.

  • Privacymodus is ingeschakeld
    Als het delen van locatiegegevens is uitgeschakeld, worden ritgegevens niet opgeslagen. Controleer en activeer het delen van locatiegegevens in de sectie Privacymodus onder MyGarage.
    Raadpleeg voor meer informatie de FAQ’s over Privacymodus in de app.

Privacymodus is de instelling waarbij de locatie van de auto niet wordt gedeeld. Dit betekent dat locatiegegevens niet beschikbaar zijn voor Toyota of derden.

Wanneer Privacymodus is ingeschakeld, heeft dit invloed op alle services die afhankelijk zijn van locatiegegevens, zoals Hybride verzekering, Vind mijn auto en rijanalyses (zoals Hybrid- en EV-coaching).

Als Privacymodus actief is, kunnen deze services beperkt beschikbaar zijn of kan de kwaliteit en nauwkeurigheid van de gegevens worden verminderd.

Smart Services stellen gebruikers van Toyota Smart Connect Multimedia in staat hun rijervaring verder te verrijken met Cloud Navigation en de Voice Agent.
Na het afsluiten van een abonnement via de MyToyota-app krijg je toegang tot de onderstaande services:
 

Cloud Navigation

Een via de cloud geüpdatete navigatiekaart in het multimediasysteem, met altijd actuele verkeersinformatie en Points of Interest (POI’s).
 

Voice Agent

Start met “Hey Toyota” om handsfree:

  • een bestemming in te stellen

  • te kiezen welke media je wilt beluisteren

  • (afhankelijk van de uitvoering van je auto) de temperatuur in het interieur aan te passen

Zo houd je je ogen op de weg en je aandacht bij het rijden.

Gebruiksgebaseerde verzekering beoordeelt je rijgedrag en kent je een score toe op basis van vier criteria:

  • Snelheid

  • Remgedrag

  • Bochtengedrag

  • Acceleratie

Bestuurders die aantoonbaar veiliger en soepeler rijden, worden beloond met korting op de premie bij verlenging van hun verzekering.
Het is een motiverende manier om je rijvaardigheid te verbeteren én te besparen op je verzekering.

Door een voorkeursdealer in te stellen, bespaar je tijd. De app verbindt je automatisch met jouw vertrouwde dealer voor het maken van serviceafspraken en ondersteuning bij waarschuwingslampjes, zonder dat je telkens opnieuw contactgegevens hoeft op te zoeken.

Je kunt het versienummer van de MyToyota-app vinden door de app te openen en naar het onderdeel ‘Account’ te gaan.
Scroll vervolgens naar de onderkant van de pagina; daar wordt het versienummer weergegeven.

Je kunt controleren welke Connected Services beschikbaar zijn voor jouw auto door het VIN-nummer in te voeren op Toyota Connectivity Match

De rij met vijf pictogrammen van links naar rechts staat voor de volgende onderdelen:
Voertuig – Kaart – Meldingen – Account – Support

Met de MyToyota-app kun je je auto op afstand bedienen, de voertuigstatus controleren, ritten plannen, het laden beheren en altijd op de hoogte blijven van belangrijke updates – allemaal via je smartphone.

Hieronder vind je een overzicht van de belangrijkste functies van de MyToyota-app:
 

Bediening op afstand

  • Motor starten/stoppen: Zet je auto op afstand aan of uit.

  • Portieren vergrendelen/ontgrendelen: Beveilig of open je auto waar je ook bent.

  • Klimaatregeling: Stel de interieurtemperatuur vooraf in voordat je instapt.

  • Alarmlichten activeren: Laat de alarmlichten knipperen om je auto snel terug te vinden, bijvoorbeeld op een drukke parkeerplaats.
     

Locatie & navigatie

  • Vind mijn auto: Lokaliseer eenvoudig waar je auto geparkeerd staat.

  • Routeplanning: Plan routes en stuur deze direct naar het navigatiesysteem van je auto.

  • Points of Interest: Zoek en sla bestemmingen op voor toekomstige ritten.

     

Voertuigstatus & onderhoud

  • Onderhoudsmeldingen: Ontvang een melding wanneer je auto toe is aan onderhoud.

  • Voertuigstatus: Bekijk onder andere het brandstofniveau, de kilometerstand, de acculading en de bandenspanning.

  • Rijanalyses: Inzicht in je ritgeschiedenis en rijstijl.

     

EV- & laadfuncties (voor geëlektrificeerde modellen)

  • Thuisladen beheren: Volg en plan laadsessies bij je thuislaadpunt.

  • Slim laden: Optimaliseer laadtijden op basis van energietarieven of je rijbehoefte.

  • Openbaar laden: Vind laadpunten in de buurt en controleer de beschikbaarheid.

  • Accubewaking: Bekijk het actuele laadniveau en de geschatte actieradius.

     

Digitale sleutel (op geselecteerde modellen)

Gebruik je smartphone om je auto te ontgrendelen, te starten en te rijden – zonder fysieke sleutel.

 

Meldingen & personalisatie

  • Realtime meldingen: Ontvang updates over voertuigstatus, onderhoud en laadvoortgang.

  • Persoonlijk dashboard: Pas het startscherm aan met de informatie die voor jou het belangrijkst is.

De MyToyota-app is ontwikkeld om het bezit van je Toyota eenvoudiger, slimmer en beter verbonden te maken – of je nu in een hybride, plug-in hybride of volledig elektrische Toyota rijdt.

De MyToyota-app en het Customer Portal (Persoonlijke pagina) verbinden je beide met je auto, maar hebben ieder een ander doel:
 

MyToyota-app

De MyToyota-app is ontworpen voor gebruik onderweg en geeft je directe toegang tot je auto via je smartphone. Je kunt onder andere:

  • je auto op afstand bedienen (motor starten, portieren vergrendelen)

  • de voertuigstatus controleren

  • routes plannen en naar de auto sturen

  • laden beheren (bij geëlektrificeerde modellen)

  • meldingen ontvangen over je auto

     

Customer Portal / Persoonlijke pagina

Het Customer Portal is toegankelijk via een webbrowser en richt zich meer op de totale merk- en eigendomservaring. Hier vind je uitgebreidere functionaliteiten, zoals:

  • het downloaden van handleidingen

  • het bekijken van een gedetailleerde onderhoudshistorie

  • het activeren van multimediaservices (zoals kaartupdates en Wi-Fi-pakketten)

  • het genereren van rapportages

  • een overzicht van beschikbare abonnementen, inclusief status en beschikbaarheid (indien van toepassing)

Sommige functies, zoals online een werkplaatsafspraak maken en onderhoud volgen, zijn beschikbaar op beide platformen. Voor zowel de MyToyota-app als het Customer Portal gebruik je dezelfde inloggegevens, wat zorgt voor een naadloze ervaring.

Ga naar de iOS App Store of de Google Play Store en zoek naar de MyToyota-app.
Download de app vervolgens eenvoudig gratis.

Connected Services bestaan uit Standard Services en Remote Services.
 

Standard Services

Standard Services omvatten een breed scala aan digitale functies die zijn ontworpen om je veiligheid, privacy en comfort onderweg te ondersteunen. Je blijft onder andere op de hoogte van:

  • de locatie van je auto

  • accuniveau

  • rijgedrag en ritgeschiedenis

  • waarschuwingslampjes en voertuigstatus

Daarnaast kun je de locatie van je auto delen met vrienden en familie binnen je netwerk.
 

Remote Services

Met Remote Services kun je je auto op afstand benaderen om verschillende instellingen aan te passen en af te stemmen op jouw wensen. Zo heb je toegang tot alle essentiële functies om je rijervaring te optimaliseren.

Je bepaalt zelf welke gegevens je met Toyota deelt. Je kunt dit op elk moment beheren via het Data Privacy Portal en je toestemming altijd aanpassen of intrekken.

Je kunt controleren welke Connected Services beschikbaar zijn voor jouw auto door het VIN-nummer in te voeren op Toyota Connectivity Match.

Om Connected Services te kunnen gebruiken, volg je deze stappen:

  1. Registreer een account

  2. Voeg je auto toe in de app

  3. Selecteer de services die je wilt activeren

  4. Accepteer de gebruiksvoorwaarden

Afhankelijk van het model van je auto kun je locatiedeling uitschakelen (oftewel Privacymodus inschakelen) via de MyToyota-app of via het multimediasysteem van de auto onder Instellingen → Info & beveiliging.

De actuele status van de Privacymodus kun je altijd controleren via je account in de app.

Ja, Connected Services kunnen worden gekoppeld aan meerdere MyToyota-accounts, zodat verschillende gezinsleden toegang hebben tot voertuiginformatie en multimediaservices.

Er kan echter slechts één account tegelijk actief zijn voor bediening via de app. Dit betekent dat functies zoals bediening op afstand, ritgegevens en meldingen alleen beschikbaar zijn via het account dat op dat moment voor het voertuig is geactiveerd.
 

Toegang delen

  • Elk gezinslid kan een eigen MyToyota-account aanmaken.

  • De primaire gebruiker activeert Connected Services in zijn of haar account.
     

Actief account wijzigen

Wil je het actieve account wijzigen? Dit kan via het onderdeel Connected Services Centre in de app.

Stappen vóór de verkoop van je Toyota
 

Connected Services-abonnement opzeggen

  • Open de MyToyota-app en zeg eventuele actieve Connected Services die aan het voertuig zijn gekoppeld op.

Auto verwijderen uit je MyToyota-account

  • Verwijder het voertuig uit je MyToyota-account.

Gebruikersprofiel verwijderen uit het multimediasysteem

  • Verwijder op het multimediasysteem in de auto je persoonlijke gebruikersprofiel om opgeslagen voorkeuren en ritgegevens te wissen.
     

Behoud je MyToyota-account

  • Verwijder je MyToyota-account niet. Je kunt dit account opnieuw gebruiken wanneer je in de toekomst een andere Toyota aanschaft.
     

Informeer de nieuwe eigenaar

  • Laat de koper weten dat de auto is uitgerust met Connected Services en dat hij of zij een eigen account kan aanmaken om deze functies te activeren en te gebruiken.

De accountgegevens zijn hetzelfde voor zowel de MyToyota-app als het Customer Portal. Op beide platformen kun je je wachtwoord wijzigen.

Om je wachtwoord te wijzigen, ga je naar het inlogscherm en kies je ‘wachtwoord wijzigen’.

Ja, dat kan, maar met beperkingen. Eén voertuig kan aan meerdere MyToyota-accounts worden toegevoegd. Er kan echter slechts één account tegelijk actief gebruikmaken van Connected Services en persoonlijke voertuiggegevens, zoals ritgeschiedenis, bediening op afstand en meldingen.

Wil je het actieve account wijzigen, dan kan dit via het Connected Services Centre. Zo wordt ervoor gezorgd dat alleen het aangewezen account volledige toegang heeft tot de connected functies van het voertuig.

Ja, je kunt hetzelfde MyToyota-account gebruiken voor meerdere voertuigen.

Toyota maakt het mogelijk om tot maximaal 10 voertuigen aan één account toe te voegen. Zo kun je meerdere Toyota’s beheren – zoals het controleren van de voertuigstatus, het gebruik van Remote Services en het inzien van de onderhoudshistorie – allemaal met één inlog.
 

Belangrijk om te weten

  • Elk voertuig moet afzonderlijk worden toegevoegd.

  • Dit kan door het scannen van de QR-code of, als dit niet wordt ondersteund, door het invoeren van het VIN (voertuigidentificatienummer).

Je ziet de melding ‘ga naar je dealer om deze verificatie handmatig uit te voeren’ omdat de app tijdens het fysieke toegangsverificatieproces een beveiligingsprobleem heeft gedetecteerd.
 

Wat is er gebeurd?

  • Waarschijnlijk heb je drie keer een onjuiste kilometerstand ingevoerd tijdens de verificatie van je voertuig.

  • Als gevolg daarvan heeft het Toyota-systeem de activering op afstand tijdelijk geblokkeerd, om je persoonlijke gegevens te beschermen.

  • Om verder te kunnen, is een bezoek aan je Toyota-dealer nodig.
     

Waarom is dit belangrijk?

  • Je dealer controleert je identiteit, zodat onbevoegden geen toegang krijgen tot je voertuig of persoonlijke gegevens.

  • Dit is onderdeel van Toyota’s inzet voor gegevensbescherming en privacy.

  • Na verificatie kan de dealer helpen om je account te deblokkeren en de Connected Services te activeren die je wilt gebruiken.

Connected Services stoppen zodra het voertuig uit je MyToyota-account wordt verwijderd.

Met een MyToyota-account kun je je multimediasysteem beheren en via de MyToyota-app en het Customer Portal / Persoonlijke pagina nuttige inzichten over je auto ontvangen.

Connected Services bestaan uit de MyToyota-app en het multimediasysteem. Beide onderdelen hebben hun eigen functionaliteiten en moeten afzonderlijk worden geactiveerd.
 

Controleren of Connected Services actief zijn

Een snelle manier om te controleren of Connected Services actief zijn, is door te kijken of de gegevens van je laatste rit worden weergegeven op het startscherm van de app.
 

Controleren en activeren via de app

Weet je niet zeker of Connected Services zijn geactiveerd? Volg dan deze stappen:

  1. Selecteer in MyGarage de juiste auto.

  2. Ga naar het Connected Services Centre.

  3. Hier zie je alle services die voor jouw auto beschikbaar zijn en hun activatiestatus.

  4. Volg de stappen in de app om de beschikbare Connected Services te activeren.
     

Toyota Online (Multimedia) activeren

Om Toyota Online te activeren:

  1. Verbind je smartphone met je auto via Bluetooth of Wi-Fi tethering.

  2. Ga in het multimediasysteem naar Setup.

  3. Selecteer Online en vervolgens Toyota Online.

  4. Kies een bestaand account en voer je MyToyota-inloggegevens in.

Na het invoeren van je gegevens start de 3 jaar gratis service.
De vervaldatum van je multimedia-abonnement kun je bekijken via het Customer Portal.

Heb je nog geen account? Dan kun je er direct in de auto één aanmaken door te kiezen voor Nieuw account.
 

Toyota Smart Connect

Bij voertuigen met Toyota Smart Connect kun je eenvoudig:

  • de QR-code die op het multimediascherm wordt weergegeven scannen met de MyToyota-app, of

  • de code handmatig invoeren in de app

Activeer daarna de Smart Services via het Connected Services Centre in de MyToyota-app.

Voor meer informatie kun je onze Handleidingen raadplegen.

Het account wordt gedeeld tussen de MyToyota-app en het Customer Portal. Op beide platformen kun je via het inlogscherm een account aanmaken.

Na het aanmaken van een account ontvang je een activatie-e-mail. Deze moet je bevestigen voordat je toegang krijgt tot je account en je voertuig(en) kunt toevoegen.

Je MyToyota-app- en Customer Portal-account kunnen ook worden gebruikt op het multimediasysteem van de auto. Heb je nog geen account, dan raden we aan om de MyToyota-app te downloaden en daar een account aan te maken.

Je kunt daarnaast ook een account aanmaken via het online Customer Portal of rechtstreeks via het multimediasysteem van de auto.

Let op: wanneer je een account aanmaakt via het multimediasysteem, dien je binnen 14 dagen de gebruiksvoorwaarden te accepteren in het Customer Portal.
Deze optie is alleen van toepassing op multimediasystemen van vóór de MM21-generatie.

Klik in de navigatiebalk op het Account-pictogram, rechtsonder in het scherm, om je profielinstellingen te wijzigen.

Helaas kunnen wij hierbij niet ondersteunen, aangezien de Car Theft Assistant-service geen voertuiglevering na terugvinding verzorgt.
In het geval van een diefstalverzekering adviseren wij contact op te nemen met je verzekeraar om te controleren of transport of aflevering onderdeel is van hun dienstverlening.

Wanneer je in de app het Car Theft Assistant-proces volgt en een Criminal Reference Number (CRN) verplicht is, kun je pas doorgaan naar de volgende stappen nadat het CRN is bevestigd.

Omdat dit een betaalde service is, is een geldig abonnement vereist om ervoor te zorgen dat de tracking niet wordt onderbroken.

Wanneer het abonnement afloopt of wordt opgezegd, stopt het volgen van het voertuig en wordt de zaak afgesloten. Je wordt tijdig geïnformeerd zodat je het abonnement kunt verlengen voordat dit gebeurt.

Helaas kunnen wij hierbij niet helpen. De Car Theft Assistant-service dekt geen schade die vóór, tijdens of na de diefstal is ontstaan. Wij adviseren contact op te nemen met je verzekeraar om te bepalen of zij ondersteuning bieden in deze situatie.

Wanneer de lokale autoriteiten je voertuig terugvinden, nemen zij contact met je op om je hierover te informeren. Het Secure Operating Centre (SOC) zorgt ervoor dat je volledig op de hoogte wordt gehouden van alle ontwikkelingen voordat de zaak wordt afgesloten.

Afhankelijk van de procedures van de lokale autoriteiten kan het zijn dat je wordt gevraagd je voertuig zelf op te halen bij de vindplaats of bij een aangewezen opslaglocatie of garage. Hieraan kunnen kosten verbonden zijn.

Heb je een diefstalverzekering, neem dan contact op met je verzekeraar om te controleren of aflevering van het voertuig naar jouw locatie mogelijk is.

In het ongelukkige geval dat je voertuig niet kan worden teruggevonden, omdat het niet kon worden getraceerd (bijvoorbeeld doordat er geen signaal is ontvangen of de trackingperiode is verlopen), wordt de zaak automatisch afgesloten.

Je wordt hierover geïnformeerd via meldingen en door het Secure Operating Centre (SOC), inclusief een toelichting op de reden van afsluiting.

Het Secure Operating Centre (SOC) communiceert in de taal van het land waarin je het abonnement op de service hebt afgesloten. Raadpleeg de lijst met landen waarin deze service beschikbaar is.

Je vindt deze landenlijst in de gebruiksvoorwaarden in je MyToyota-app.

In sommige landen moet je eerst aangifte doen bij de politie voordat je contact opneemt met het Secure Operating Centre (SOC). De politie moet een zaak openen om de communicatie met het SOC te kunnen starten.

Na het openen van de zaak ontvang je een Criminal Reference Number (CRN). Dit nummer geef je aan ons door om te bevestigen dat aan de lokale wet- en regelgeving is voldaan.

De wetgeving verschilt per land, waardoor het verkrijgen van een CRN soms verplicht en soms optioneel is.

In situaties waarin je voertuig niet is gestolen en weer in jouw bezit is, vragen wij je de zaak te annuleren via het Car Theft Assistant-menu.

Dit kan op twee manieren:

  • door rechtstreeks contact op te nemen met het Secure Operating Centre (SOC), of

  • door in de app te kiezen voor de optie waarbij het SOC contact met jou opneemt.

In beide gevallen vindt er communicatie met het SOC plaats, zodat kan worden bevestigd dat de annulering bewust en correct is uitgevoerd, en niet per vergissing.

Als je auto wordt gestolen in een ander land dan waar deze is geregistreerd, raadpleeg dan eerst de lijst met landen waarin deze service beschikbaar is. Deze lijst vind je in de gebruiksvoorwaarden in je MyToyota-app.

Staat het land waarin je voertuig is gestolen niet op deze lijst, dan kunnen wij helaas geen ondersteuning bieden bij het traceren van het gestolen voertuig.

Als je een diefstalverzekering hebt en hiervoor een vergoeding van de verzekeraar hebt ontvangen, verzoeken wij je de tracking te annuleren.

Dit kan door in de app via het Car Theft Assistant-menu te kiezen voor annuleren.
Je kunt ook rechtstreeks contact opnemen met het Secure Operating Centre (SOC) of aangeven dat het SOC contact met jou opneemt.

Wanneer je contact opneemt met het Secure Operating Centre (SOC), kunnen er lokale belkosten van toepassing zijn, afhankelijk van het land van waaruit je belt.
Wanneer het SOC contact met jou opneemt, zijn hier geen kosten aan verbonden.

Nee, de Drive Recorder blijft in dezelfde status staan als tijdens je laatste rit.
Als je de Drive Recorder tijdens die rit hebt geactiveerd, blijft deze dus ingeschakeld, ongeacht welk gebruikersprofiel wordt gebruikt.

Nee, de Drive Recorder registreert alleen de omgeving van het voertuig wanneer de motor aan staat en je rijdt.
Wanneer je geparkeerd staat met de motor uit, worden er geen opnames gemaakt.

Sta je geparkeerd met de motor aan en is de Drive Recorder ingeschakeld, dan worden er wel opnames gemaakt.

Ja, de Drive Recorder herkent geen locaties waar opnemen verboden is. Als bestuurder ben je zelf volledig verantwoordelijk voor alle opnames die met je voertuig worden gemaakt.

Controleer de statusbalk van je multimediasysteem. Wanneer de Drive Recorder is geactiveerd, wordt het bijbehorende pictogram weergegeven.

Om een videofragment te downloaden, sluit je een USB-stick aan op de USB-poort van het voertuig en kies je één van de onderstaande opties:
 

Alles in één

  • Selecteer het videofragment in je bibliotheek en kies Exporteren.

  • De miniatuurafbeelding toont welk camerabeeld wordt geëxporteerd.

  • Ga naar de bibliotheek voor continue opnames als je zowel de voor- als achtercamera van dezelfde opname wilt exporteren.
     

Eén voor één

  • Exporteer het videofragment via de drie puntjes op het afspeelscherm.
     

Automatisch

  • Laat een USB-stick permanent aangesloten.

  • Ga naar Instellingen en schakel automatisch exporteren in, zodat opnames altijd automatisch naar je externe opslag worden gekopieerd.

De Drive Recorder is een functie waarvoor een abonnement vereist is.
Om deze te activeren, scan je de QR-code in het Drive Recorder-menu binnen de multimedia-instellingen en volg je de stappen om je te abonneren op het Connect & Secure-bundel.

Neem contact op met je lokale Toyota-dealer of raadpleeg het supportgedeelte van de MyToyota-app.

Als de Drive Recorder niet was geactiveerd, is het incident niet opgenomen.

Je kunt je opname terugvinden in de bibliotheek binnen de Drive Recorder-instellingen.

Ja, als je als primaire gebruiker een abonnement hebt op Connect & Secure, kunnen alle andere geregistreerde profielen die met het voertuig rijden gebruikmaken van de Drive Recorder. Het gastprofiel heeft geen toegang tot de bibliotheek.

De Drive Recorder van Toyota stelt je in staat om mogelijke bedreigingen voor je voertuig vast te leggen. Als bestuurder – of dat nu jij bent of iemand anders achter het stuur, zoals een primaire gebruiker, secundaire bestuurder of andere geregistreerde gebruiker – ben je zelf verantwoordelijk voor het naleven van de geldende lokale wet- en regelgeving en om hiervan op de hoogte te blijven. Het is daarom jouw verantwoordelijkheid om videofragmenten te verwijderen wanneer dat noodzakelijk is.

Als primaire bestuurder kun je videofragmenten van een ongeval bekijken, mits je vriend de Drive Recorder vóór of tijdens zijn rit niet heeft uitgeschakeld.

Na het afronden van het abonnementsproces in de MyToyota-app dien je de motor opnieuw te starten om de aangeschafte functie te kunnen gebruiken. Zorg er daarbij voor dat je beschikt over een actieve netwerkverbinding, zodat het voertuig verbinding kan maken met onze servers en de functie in je auto kan worden geactiveerd.

Zodra de opname is geëxporteerd naar je USB-stick, wordt er een map aangemaakt met de naam “DRIVE_REC_MANUAL”. In deze map wordt elk videofragment als volgt benoemd:
 

Jaar + Maand + Dag + Uur + Minuten + Seconden _ OOO _ AantalBestanden

De eerste twee tekens van [OOO] geven het type opname aan:
DC staat voor een continue opname,
DU staat voor een door de gebruiker geactiveerde opname,
DG staat voor een incidentopname.
 

De laatste letter geeft het type camera aan:
F staat voor frontcamera,
B voor achtercamera,
S voor surround/perifere camerabeelden (Peripheral View Monitor).
 

Voorbeeld:
250822142226_DGF_1

Dit bestand is opgenomen op 22 augustus 2025 om 14:22:26. Het betreft een incidentopname gemaakt met de frontcamera van het voertuig en is het eerste geëxporteerde videobestand.

Nee, de Drive Recorder is alleen toegankelijk met een actief abonnement. Wanneer je abonnement afloopt, verlies je de toegang tot de opnames. De opnames worden echter niet automatisch verwijderd, omdat Toyota geen toegang heeft tot jouw videobestanden.

Ben je van plan je voertuig te verkopen, dan wordt aangeraden om je persoonlijke gegevens en opnames vooraf te verwijderen, omdat deze anders mogelijk door een volgende gebruiker kunnen worden ingezien.

Zorg ervoor dat je alle opnames verwijdert voordat je je auto verkoopt. Houd er rekening mee dat je een actief abonnement nodig hebt om toegang te krijgen tot de opnames en deze te kunnen verwijderen.

Zodra de Drive Recorder is geactiveerd, legt deze tijdens het rijden de omgeving van je voertuig vast. Je bent zelf volledig verantwoordelijk voor de gegevens die tijdens je rit worden opgenomen. Het is daarom essentieel dat je je houdt aan de lokale wet- en regelgeving bij het gebruik ervan. Toyota is niet aansprakelijk voor onjuist of onrechtmatig gebruik van de Drive Recorder.

Raadpleeg de Connect & Secure FAQ.

Nee, de Drive Recorder is alleen toegankelijk met een actief abonnement. Wanneer je abonnement afloopt, verlies je de toegang tot de opnames. Deze worden echter niet automatisch verwijderd, omdat Toyota geen toegang heeft tot jouw opnames.

Als je van plan bent je voertuig te verkopen, is het aan te raden om je gegevens vooraf te verwijderen, omdat deze anders mogelijk door anderen kunnen worden ingezien of gedeeld.

Na het afronden van je abonnement in de MyToyota-app dien je de motor opnieuw te starten om de aangeschafte functie te activeren. Zorg ervoor dat er een netwerkverbinding beschikbaar is, zodat je voertuig verbinding kan maken met onze servers en de functies kan inschakelen.

Neem contact op met je Toyota-dealer.

Ja, dat zullen ze..

Een rit kan om verschillende redenen ontbreken in Rijanalyses, Hybrid- of EV-coaching:

  • Connected Services niet geactiveerd
    Controleer of de Standard Services zijn geactiveerd in het Connected Services Centre onder MyGarage in de app.

  • Profiel niet gekoppeld
    Koppel je profiel aan het multimediasysteem (head unit) van je voertuig, zodat ritgegevens in de app kunnen worden opgeslagen.

  • Privacymodus ingeschakeld
    Als aan het einde van de rit het delen van locatiegegevens is uitgeschakeld, worden ritgegevens niet opgeslagen. Zorg ervoor dat locatiedeling is ingeschakeld als je ritgegevens wilt zien. Je kunt de status controleren in het onderdeel Privacymodus onder MyGarage in de app. Raadpleeg voor meer informatie de vragen over Privacymodus in de categorie Account.

  • Nog geen ritten
    Rijanalyses worden pas beschikbaar nadat je eerste rit is geregistreerd.

  • Zeer korte ritten
    Zeer korte ritten (ongeveer minder dan 50 meter en 10 seconden) worden mogelijk niet opgeslagen om de app overzichtelijk te houden.

  • Problemen met GPS-signaal
    Ritten worden mogelijk niet correct vastgelegd als je parkeert op locaties met beperkte of geen GPS-dekking (bijvoorbeeld in een parkeergarage). De rit kan later alsnog verschijnen zodra het signaal verbetert.

  • Vertraging in gegevenssynchronisatie
    Het kan enkele uren duren voordat ritgegevens zichtbaar zijn in de app.

  • Systeemonderhoud
    Tijdelijke storingen of updates kunnen invloed hebben op het registreren van ritten.

Ontbreken er nog steeds ritten? Ga dan naar Contact opnemen of App Support in de MyToyota-app.

Je prestatiescore laat zien hoe efficiënt en soepel je rijdt, op basis van gegevens die tijdens elke rit door je voertuig worden verzameld.

De score wordt berekend als een gewogen gemiddelde van je rit­scores, waarbij rekening wordt gehouden met de afstand per rit. De totaalscore richt zich op twee hoofdonderdelen: accelereren en remmen.

  • Geleidelijk accelereren helpt het verbruik en de slijtage van het voertuig te verminderen.

  • Geleidelijk remmen draagt bij aan veilig rijden door voldoende afstand te houden en situaties tijdig te anticiperen.

Daarnaast biedt de service een gedetailleerd overzicht van je rijgedrag per rit en per maand. Dit overzicht kan, indien beschikbaar, onderdelen bevatten zoals acceleratie, remgedrag en constante snelheid. Dit laatste laat zien hoe stabiel je je snelheid aanhoudt. Wanneer je voornamelijk in stedelijke omstandigheden rijdt, kan je gemiddelde snelheid te laag zijn om een score voor constante snelheid te tonen.

De prestatiescore en bijbehorende details helpen je inzicht te krijgen in je rijstijl en geven suggesties voor kleine aanpassingen die de efficiëntie kunnen verbeteren en de algehele prestaties van je voertuig op de lange termijn kunnen verhogen.

Ritgegevens kunnen om verschillende redenen onnauwkeurig worden weergegeven:

  • Privacymodus gedeeltelijk ingeschakeld
    Als tijdens (delen van) een rit het delen van locatiegegevens is uitgeschakeld, kunnen rit- en routegegevens vertekend raken. Wanneer de voertuiglocatie tijdelijk niet beschikbaar is, genereert het systeem routegegevens op basis van beschikbare kaarten en geoptimaliseerde routes naar geselecteerde bestemmingen. Dit hoeft niet overeen te komen met de daadwerkelijk gereden route. Raadpleeg voor meer informatie de vragen over Privacymodus in de categorie Account.

  • Slecht GPS-signaal
    Rijden door tunnels, ondergrondse parkeergarages of gebieden met beperkte GPS-dekking kan de registratie van ritten onderbreken.

  • Ontbrekende constante-snelheidsgegevens
    Als je voornamelijk in de stad rijdt, kan je gemiddelde snelheid te laag zijn om een score voor constante snelheid weer te geven.

Blijft het probleem bestaan? Ga dan naar Contact opnemen of App Support in de MyToyota-app.

Rijanalyses, Hybrid- of EV-coaching is een service die is ontworpen om je te helpen je rijstijl beter te begrijpen en te verbeteren. Op basis van sensorgegevens van je connected voertuig – zoals accelereren, remmen en constante snelheid – wordt per rit een score van 0 tot 100 berekend. Deze score geeft aan hoe soepel en efficiënt je rijdt.

Let op: de nauwkeurigheid van de gegevens die in deze services worden gebruikt, moet worden gezien als indicatief en niet als exacte meetwaarden.

Naast het toekennen van een rit­s­core biedt de service ook samenvattende ritgegevens, zodat je een compleet beeld krijgt van je rijgedrag.

Rijanalyses, Hybrid- of EV-coaching is beschikbaar voor individuele ritten en in een maandelijks overzicht. In het maandelijkse overzicht kun je bovendien een grafiek bekijken met je dagelijkse rijanalyses gedurende de maand.

Nogmaals: de nauwkeurigheid van de gebruikte gegevens is indicatief en bedoeld om trends en verbeterpunten inzichtelijk te maken.

Wat is het verschil tussen de drie services?

Elke service biedt gepersonaliseerde inzichten om het maximale uit je voertuig en rijervaring te halen:

  • Rijanalyses is beschikbaar voor alle connected voertuigen.

  • Hybrid Coaching is speciaal ontwikkeld voor hybride voertuigen.

  • EV Coaching is afgestemd op volledig elektrische voertuigen.

Sommige basiscommando’s, zoals het bedienen van media of klimaatregeling, werken offline. Voor geavanceerde functies of webgebaseerde vragen is echter een internetverbinding vereist.

Ja, de Intelligent Agent draait op de achtergrond en kan proactief nuttige suggesties geven. Deze functie wordt ondersteund als onderdeel van het Connect & Drive-abonnement.

Ja, de Intelligent Agent is afhankelijk van online services om realtime informatie te kunnen leveren.

De Intelligent Agent is een geavanceerde online assistent die proactieve suggesties, interactieve functies en handige herinneringen biedt. Het is een uitgebreidere versie van de standaard Voice Agent.

Ja. Instellingen worden lokaal opgeslagen en op regelmatige momenten naar de Toyota-servers geüpload, bijvoorbeeld wanneer het contact op ACC OFF staat of wanneer profielen worden gewisseld of verwijderd.

Ja, in persoonlijke voertuigen kan het systeem het laatst geladen profiel (Last Loaded Profile – LLP) automatisch laden zonder authenticatie (alleen voor geselecteerde modellen). Gebruikers kunnen deze instelling op elk moment aanpassen en de LLP-functie in- of uitschakelen.

De gastmodus maakt het mogelijk om het multimediasysteem te gebruiken zonder een profiel aan te maken. De toegang tot bepaalde instellingen kan hierbij beperkt zijn. Raadpleeg de FAQ’s per functie voor meer informatie.

Het kan nodig zijn om een profielherkenningsmethode in te stellen in de profielinstellingen. Afhankelijk van het multimediasysteem in je auto kun je hiervoor onze ‘How to onboard’-video’s raadplegen.

Het systeem geeft prioriteit aan het meest recent gebruikte profiel. Bij een conflict wordt de gebruiker hiervan op de hoogte gesteld.

Het systeem detecteert dit en kan je informeren over een profielconflict, vooral wanneer dezelfde gebruikers-ID in meerdere voertuigen actief is.

Een gebruikersprofiel slaat persoonlijke instellingen op, zoals stoelpositie, spiegelinstellingen, voorkeuren voor het multimediasysteem en klimaatregeling (HVAC). Deze profielen kunnen automatisch worden geladen op basis van gebruikersherkenning.

Gebruikers worden herkend via Bluetooth (BT)-apparaten, slimme sleutels, Digital Keys, biometrische authenticatie of door in te loggen met een pincode. Het systeem gebruikt deze gegevens om de gebruiker te koppelen aan het bijbehorende opgeslagen profiel.

In persoonlijke voertuigen heeft het primaire profiel volledige controle, waaronder het uitvoeren van een fabrieksreset, het verwijderen van profielen en het beheren van Drive Recorder-instellingen (zie de FAQ over Drive Recorder als abonnementsfunctie).

Secundaire profielen hebben beperkte rechten en kunnen geen primaire profielen verwijderen of een fabrieksreset uitvoeren.

De QR-code biedt een directe link naar het gedeelte voor het koppelen van het MyToyota-account. Dit verbetert de onboardingervaring doordat gebruikers hun account snel en eenvoudig kunnen koppelen.

De muziekstreamingdienst neemt de instellingen voor expliciete content over van Spotify.

Spotify Free-gebruikers hebben afspeelbeperkingen, zoals alleen afspelen in shuffle-modus, vergelijkbaar met de beperkingen van de gratis Spotify-versie op een smartphone.

De app probeert gedurende 60 minuten continu op de achtergrond opnieuw verbinding te maken. Als deze pogingen niet slagen, blijft het scherm met de melding over een tijdelijk verbindingsprobleem zichtbaar.

Het biedt een naadloze ervaring, vergelijkbaar met smartphone-apps, waardoor gebruikers direct via het multimediasysteem in de auto toegang hebben tot muziekstreamingdiensten. Dit vergroot het gebruiksgemak en het entertainment tijdens het rijden.

Gebruikers kunnen hun muziekaccounts, zoals Spotify, koppelen aan hun MyToyota-appaccount door binnen OneApp bij de betreffende contentprovider te kiezen voor ‘verbinden’ of ‘koppelen’.

Vervolgens worden zij doorgestuurd naar de inlogpagina van de contentprovider, waar zij hun inloggegevens invoeren. Na succesvol inloggen dient de gebruiker de Spotify-toestemming te accepteren, zodat de contentprovider beschikbaar wordt via het multimediasysteem in de auto (HU). Daarna zal Spotify functioneren in het multimediasysteem.

Wanneer je de Spotify-app bijwerkt, worden deze wijzigingen direct doorgevoerd in de dienst in de auto. Daarnaast start de in-car service automatisch opnieuw om de nieuw ingestelde voorkeuren en instellingen toe te passen.

De Voice Assistant communiceert met streamingaudio-bronnen om door de gebruiker gevraagde media-inhoud op te halen en af te spelen. Hierbij verwerkt de assistent de spraakopdrachten en voert deze uit.

De dataverbinding (netwerk) wordt beheerd via de DCM (Data Communication Module) met een actief data-abonnement of via externe Wi-Fi-hotspots. Wanneer de DCM is gedeactiveerd, is de streamingaudiofunctionaliteit niet beschikbaar. Raadpleeg de gebruikershandleiding voor meer informatie over de DCM.

De apps ondersteunen verschillende talen, waaronder de talen die door Spotify worden ondersteund, afhankelijk van de geselecteerde taal van het multimediascherm in de auto.

Het multimediasysteem in de auto probeert de afspeel-URL te vernieuwen en het nummer opnieuw vanaf het begin af te spelen. Als de content niet beschikbaar is, gaat de app naar de startpagina zonder dat de weergave automatisch wordt hervat.

Fouten bij dubbele streaming treden op wanneer één account gelijktijdig content streamt op meerdere apparaten. Deze fout kan door de gebruiker worden opgelost, bijvoorbeeld door andere apparaten te ontkoppelen of het afspelen elders te stoppen.

Het instellen bestaat uit het koppelen van muziekaccounts aan de MyToyota-app, het zorgen voor een actieve dataverbinding via de DCM (Data Communication Module) of een externe Wi-Fi-hotspot, en het autoriseren van de streamingdiensten door het accepteren van de toestemming.

Je dient het koppelproces in de MyToyota-app te voltooien. Zodra je account is gekoppeld, wordt je content gesynchroniseerd en weergegeven in het multimediasysteem (HU).

De afspeelbediening omvat onder andere afspelen/pauzeren, volgende, vorige, shuffle, herhalen, duim omhoog/omlaag, like/dislike en meer, afhankelijk van de gebruikte contentprovider.

De functies omvatten het bladeren, zoeken en afspelen van Spotify-content, vergelijkbaar met de ervaring van Spotify gebruiken op je eigen apparaat. De apps zorgen voor een premium rijervaring zonder dat er extra externe apparaten nodig zijn.

Het gebruik van Toyota Connect Music (Spotify) maakt directe integratie met het voertuigsysteem mogelijk, zonder gebruik van Bluetooth. Hierdoor wordt audiocompressie vermeden en blijft de geluidskwaliteit behouden. Daarnaast kan muziek handsfree worden bediend via de spraakassistent van de auto, waardoor je je aandacht op de weg kunt houden en dit bijdraagt aan een veiligere rijervaring.

The "offers" (& smart stops) feature is an addition to our Cloud Navigation system that provides drivers of eligible Toyota models with dynamic, real-time content for nearby Points of Interest (POIs). This feature shows offers available in the surroinding POI : restaurants, gas stations, supermarkets, and more. 

Yes, users have the option to disable the feature within the navigation system settings if they prefer not to receive Offers or Smart Stops. We assure that the system is designed to prioritise your user data privacy and security. The feature accesses only necessary information, and data handling complies with our privacy policy, ensuring a secure and transparent user experience. To learn more about our privacy terms, please visit the Toyota Privacy Notice. 

OPTION 1

A: To find out if your vehicle is equipped with a Toyota Smart Connect In-car Multimedia System, refer to the production date of your vehicle.

The table allows you to identify the eligible models according to their production date.

 

Model Name Production date of Toyota Smart Connect In-Car Multimedia
AYGO X From March 2022 to November 2023
Yaris From April 2022 to December 2023
Yaris Cross From July 2021 to March 2024

 

OPTION 2

 

A: Here is the homepage of the Toyota Smart Connect In-car Multimedia System.

On your multimedia screen, go to Navigation, then Settings at the top right of the screen. Upon tapping on Settings, select “Map data”. The Navigation version number will be at the top of the screen. This number needs equal to [6.1.2] or above ([7.1.1,…]).

This functionality ensures drivers have easy access to relevant results, improving the overall search experience. Most relevant search results are shown at the top of the list, with a decorating ribbon on the card and showing the brand logo. By clicking on the top search results, you get to the Details Screen. Here you can discover special offers available at the POI. Once you are parked in a safe place, the Details Screen will then inform you as to how you can redeem the offer, depending on the POI (a QR or discount code that can optionally appear on the image or in the text).

Offers show you which POIs in your area are offering discounts and special offers. In some vehicles, the offers can be identified thanks to a gift icon next to the POI logo.

The low-fuel Smart Stop functionality is designed to provide drivers with timely suggestions for a nearby gas station, when your fuel level is running low. The navigation system uses real-time data on your vehicle's fuel level, distance travelled, and the location of available gas stations to intelligently suggest where to go to refuel. When the system detects a low fuel threshold (remaining autonomy of 140 km or 70 km), it prompts you with recommendations for nearby gas stations. By clicking on the Smart Stops card on the screen, you get to the Details section - Here you can discover special offers available at the POI, once your vehicle is parked in a safe place. 

This Smart Stop functionality is designed to suggest a POI when you have been driving for more than two hours. The navigation system considers factors such as your driving time, current location, and preferences to recommend relevant and interesting places to explore and take a break. Recommendations are typically provided at intervals during your journey to enhance your overall driving experience. By clicking on the Smart Stops card on the screen, you get to the Details Screen - here you can discover special offers available at the POI, once you parked your vehicle in a safe place.

Once your vehicle is parked in a safe place, click on the POI to see the Details Screen. In the Details  section you can find out how to benefit from the offer depending on the POI (a QR or discount code that can optionally appear on the image or in the text). The Details  section also provides the validity period of the offers. Validity can vary from one POI to the next. 

The Offers feature is available for Toyota vehicles with Toyota Smart Connect multimedia produced after 2021 with Cloud Navigation.

The Smart Stops feature is available for Aygo X, Yaris, Yaris Cross with a Toyota Smart Connect multimedia with 3 physical buttons on the side of the screen.

To access the features, you need a vehicle eligible for Cloud Navigation and Offers or Offers and Smart Stops, along with an active subscription to Cloud Navigation (Smart Services/Smart Car). Also, ensure you enable navigation data sharing and activate the feature in the navigation system.

Features include Branded Pins, showing brand logos with a gift icon (according to the vehicle) on the map, making it easy for you to explore your surroundings while driving.

In the settings menu of the navigation system under ‘Services’, you will find an option to toggle Offers and Smart Stops On or Off. 

 

You can choose to turn off only Smart Stops, in which case they will no longer appear. Alternatively, toggling off Offers will hide Branded Pin, Search, and Recommendations entirely. This gives you control over the content you see, allowing you to customise your navigation experience based on your preferences. You can change the settings at any time.

The feature is designed to be accessible across Europe, but initial availability may vary by country. We are continually expanding coverage to ensure a comprehensive experience in more regions. There are no additional charges associated with the service.

Branded pins are brand logos* displayed directly on the map, indicating the locations of POIs, making it easier for you to find and navigate to your favourite locations. Once your vehicle is parked in a safe place, click on the logo on the screen and you'll go to the Details Screen - Here you can discover special offers available at the POI. In the Details  section you can learn how to benefit from the offer depending on the POI (a QR or discount code that can optionally appear on the image or in the text).

 

* in recent models, you can see a gift icon for POI with an offer.

No, you’ll need to have the MyToyota app and an active subscription to the Connect and Secure bundle. Depending on your vehicle, Connect and Secure may already be included or available as part of a trial. If not, you can subscribe to it through the paid subscriptions section in your app.

In the MyToyota app, go to the Remote Immobiliser page, scroll down to the security code section and select 'Change code'. Biometric authentication is required and the engine will be unlocked automatically. Enter the new 6-digit code twice to confirm. If the previous code is forgotten, you can create a new one directly in the app. A notification will confirm the update.

  1. Subscribe to Connect & Secure bundle in the MyToyota app
  2. Create a 6-digit code on MyToyota app
  3. Activate Remote Immobiliser manually in the MyToyota app or set it to auto mode to engage it automatically
  4. Deactivate Remote Immobiliser manually in the MyToyota or via the multimedia screen with your 6-digit code

Once the Remote Immobiliser status loads in your app, the engine will show as unlocked. You can then lock the engine. It will lock automatically when the doors close or 60 minutes after the engine is turned off. You’ll receive a push notification once the engine is locked.

1. Manually from the app:

Once the status has loaded on the Remote Immobiliser page, the engine will appear as locked. Biometric authentication will then be required to unlock the engine via the app. Ensure the vehicle has network coverage. If the command is successfully received, the engine will be unlocked. If the code is forgotten, the engine can still be unlocked remotely.

 

2. From the in-car multimedia system:

Press the brake pedal and push the start button of your car. Enter the 6-digit code created in the mobile app on the multimedia screen. You have up to 10 attempts to enter the correct code before the screen is locked. The code is stored locally in the vehicle, so no network connection is required.

To lock the engine, please ensure the following conditions are met:

 

  • You have an active subscription to Connect & Secure bundle
  • The onboarding process is complete
  • Biometric authentication is enabled
  • All vehicle doors are locked
  • The vehicle has network coverage 

Auto Mode automatically activates the immobiliser when your vehicle is parked and locked, providing convenience and enhanced security without any app action.

Your car is equipped with an immobiliser that relies on the key fob transponder: it detects the transponder in the key fob and must be present within the vehicle to start the engine, even when using the Remote Immobiliser. The Remote Immobiliser is an additional security layer that requires a subscription and allows owners to lock the engine with a 6-digit code.

There are three ways to recover a forgotten code:
 

  1. Unlock the engine manually from the app using biometric authentification (vehicle network required)​. 
  2. Create a new code from the 'Change code' section of the app (vehicle network required)​
  3. Retrieve the 6-digit code from the app's 'View code' section and add it on the in-car multimedia screen when asked for (vehicle can be offline).

You can unlock the engine by entering the code directly via the in-car multimedia system. Alternatively, you can logon to your account on a different smartphone.

Check your internet connection for both your vehicle and mobile phone. Make sure all doors are locked and the app is updated. If the issue continues, contact support.

Remote Immobiliser is an extra layer of security that prevents the engine from starting unless the correct access code or signal is received. It helps protect your vehicle from unauthorised use or theft.

Different scenario may cause your Remote services not to work. Let's try to list the most frequent ones:
 

  • Your vehicle may not support some or all the remote services. Please contact your retailer to find out.
  • You may not have subscribed to the remote services.
  • If you have not used your car for more than 9 days then your car might have gone into sleep mode to protect its battery life.

Please go to your car and start the engine.
 

  • Please verify that all preconditions are met: all doors closed, hood closed, smart key not inside the vehicle

To subscribe to a Connected Service in the MyToyota app, follow the steps below:
 

1.      Go to the Connected Services Centre and select the service you are interested in

2.      Choose your subscription plan - monthly, yearly or every 4 years

3.      Proceed to the checkout and enter your billing address and payment information. You will need a billing address and a valid payment method in your wallet

4.      Review your purchase in the Summary and activate the service if you're ready

5.      If you're eligible for a trial, you won't be charged yet, but you'll be able to see the due date of your first payment. If you've already used a trial, you'll be charged at this point and an invoice will be sent to your email.

You can update your payment method by adding a new credit card to your wallet and setting it as the primary card. This way, your subscriptions will be charged to the new card.

If you have lost your invoices, please contact your local customer centre to obtain new copies. You can also find all your invoices in your email. 

When you add a new payment method to the MyToyota app, the information is transmitted directly to our partner who is compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). They will be responsible for securely storing your data. After being stored, you will only be able to view certain details of your payment method, such as the last four digits. Toyota's systems and its employees/agents do not have access to the complete payment method information and cannot read it. 

You’ll get a pro-rata refund.
 

  • Yearly case example: The trial activation began on January the 10th, the first payment is due on February 10th, and cancellation occurred by May 30th. Therefore, you used the service for more than 3 months, so we will consider it as 4 months. As a result, you will be refunded for the remaining 8 months.
  • 4-year case example: The trial activation began on 10/Jan/24, the first payment is due on 10/Feb/24, and cancellation occurred by 30/May/25.  Therefore, you used the service for more than 15 months, so we will consider it as 16 months. As a result, you will be refunded for the remaining 32 months. 

After cancelling your subscription, we will promptly request the refund be processed. However, due to processing time from the card issuer or bank, it may take a few days for it to appear on your credit card or account statements. If you haven't received it after a week or so, please contact your bank or your local customer centre. 

Your payment will depend on the service or feature you want and whether you select a monthly, yearly or every 4 years tariff. Please check all the options when examining each subscription individually.

 

Price may also vary by country.

It depends on your enrolment options. Please refer to the subscription FAQs for more information.

The payment information is securely stored by our PCI Compliant partner, Pay-D GmbH.

JP Morgan is the PCI compliant Payment Gateway and also receives payment information to process transactions. JP Morgan is a regulated financial institution.

Unfortunately, your subscription is only valid for the specific vehicle that you have subscribed to.

The 14-day withdrawal right applies and counts from the day you activate your subscription. If you are eligible for a trial, there is nothing to worry about since you have one month to cancel without any costs.

 

After the trial period ends and the first payment is processed, the 14-day right of withdrawal is no longer applicable, and no refund is possible.

 

If you are not eligible for the trial and make the first payment, you have 14 days to cancel to receive a full refund. Your 14-day withdrawal right is only applicable once.

We provide customers with a variety of subscription services for both their vehicle and the app. Several of these services are included in the Standard Subscription package. However, certain Connected Services will require you to sign up for a paid subscription once the trial period expires. Toyota offers a range of subscription options and bundles to meet your specific needs.

All types, depending on the kind and importance of the notification.

You can activate a subscription for one vehicle at a time. Once a service is activated from the Connected Services Centre, it will apply to the currently selected vehicle in 'My Garage'.

The subscription will remain active until the end of the trial and will automatically be cancelled on that day. You will not be charged.

Before selling your vehicle, please make sure you cancel your active Connected Services subscription. You will receive a refund for the remaining unused period of your subscription.

Additionally, remove the vehicle from your MyToyota account to ensure the new owner can register the vehicle and activate their own services.

If you are unable to complete these steps, your Toyota retailer can assist you in cancelling the subscription and updating the vehicle ownership

The MyToyota app will notify you when your current card expires. You must add a new card before the primary one expires, as failure to do so may result in payment failure. 

In the event a payment fails, we will promptly notify you and make a second attempt the following day. If the payment still fails, we will make one final attempt the day after. If these attempts are unsuccessful, the subscription will be automatically cancelled, and you will receive a notification of the cancellation. 

Currently, you cannot transfer a subscription from one vehicle to another. You need to remove any active subscription from a vehicle first, which will also cancel any associated subscriptions. After removal, you can then add a new vehicle and activate a new subscription for it.

Simply log in to your Toyota account on the new phone. You’ll then be able to see and manage your existing subscriptions normally.

If you decide to cancel your paid subscription, a date for service deactivation will be set, depending on your subscription package. Depending on the subscribed package and the time of cancellation, you may also be eligible for a refund. For more information, please refer to the Terms of Use.

All subscriptions, including paid subscriptions, will be cancelled when the vehicle is removed from the app.

If your Connected Services trials are coming to an end, you can keep enjoying them with one of our subscription plans. With monthly, yearly, or every 4-year billing options, you can choose the subscription plan that works best for you!

Your payment methods are securely stored in a PCI-compliant data centre provided by one of our partners. These methods will only be used to pay for the products and subscriptions you have selected.  

The payment of your credit card bill is an agreement between you and the card issuer. As long as the payment is authorised, your subscription will remain active. 

The primary card is always used by default. For example, all your subscription payments will be charged from the primary. The other cards can be saved in your wallet but will not be used unless you make one of them the primary card. 

Our databases are encrypted and secure, and all our systems have access control mechanisms to ensure the protection of your data. Additionally, data transmission between our systems is encrypted to provide an extra layer of security. 

 We process payment-related data according to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, which is a set of guidelines designed to protect cardholder information. 

 For personal data, we adhere to the security principles outlined by the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to safeguard your personal information and maintain your privacy.

Refunds may take up to a week to appear on your credit card statement or bank account. If you don’t receive your refund after this time, please contact your local customer centre.

It is crucial to get in touch with your bank or card issuer in situations like this. To prevent any payment problems with the Toyota app, add a new card or select an alternate primary payment method at your earliest convenience. 

We will always collect the payments on the due date. If you notice that you haven't been charged, first make sure that there is no issue with your card. Additionally, check if you have received any payment failure email or notifications from us. If there are no issues from your side and you haven't received any notification from us, it could be a delay in our systems, in which case we will retry soon. However, if the payment never goes through, please contact your local customer centre for further assistance. 

Please double-check your subscription price and amount. If you notice any discrepancies, please contact your local Toyota customer centre. 

Please contact your local customer support. 

Please double-check the Terms of Use. If you can confirm there’s a mistake, please contact your local customer centre. 

Once a credit card has been added, you cannot modify any other data associated with it. If you need to make any changes such as updating the expiration date, you will have to add a new card with the correct information and then remove the card with the incorrect information. 

There are many possible reasons for this. We recommend first checking that your current card is valid and has enough balance. If the error persists, contact your local customer centre.

To avoid missing payments, please add a new primary payment card to your wallet or set a new one as the primary one. We recommend deleting the expired one. 

Please check your subscription's free trial duration. The paid options include monthly, yearly, or every four years payments.

Only Visa and Mastercard Credit Cards are currently supported. Other payment methods may be added in the future. 

If your standard trial period that comes with the purchase of the new vehicle ends, your subscription will not be renewed automatically. However, if you re-subscribed through a subscription plan after your trial period, your subscription will be renewed automatically. You don’t need to resubscribe again.

If you are eligible for the trial, the first payment will occur exactly one month after the activation date. 

 

For monthly enrolment, you will be charged on the same day each month. For example, if your activation date is January 10th, your first payment will occur on February 10th, the next one on March 10th and so on.

 

For yearly enrolment, you will be charged on the same date every year. For example, if your activation date is January 10th, 2024, your first payment will occur on February 10th, 2024, and the next one on February 10th, 2025.

 

For the four-year enrolment, you will be charged on the same date every four years. For example, if your activation date is January 10th, 2024, your first payment will occur on February 10th, 2024, and the next one on February 10th, 2028.

 

If you opt-in, we can send you notifications before each payment for yearly and four-year enrolment.

The subscriptions can be viewed by going to Connected Service Centre on the MyToyota app.

The trial period of one month can only be used once. If you have already taken advantage of a trial, you will not be eligible for another. If you have never subscribed before but do not see the trial option, please contact your local customer centre for assistance.

You will only see the payment method screen if your account/vehicle are eligible for app payments. Eligibility depends on the app version, vehicle model, and your location. 

There could be various reasons why you are facing problems with the service. It might be due to a delay in subscription activation or the service you are trying to access could be temporarily unavailable or undergoing maintenance. If you are experiencing any issues, we recommend that you get in touch with your local customer centre.

There are several reasons why adding a payment method can fail. These include a blocked card or failure to meet 3DS secure requirements. If unsuccessful after multiple attempts, please contact your bank or your local Toyota customer centre. 

Vehicle eligibility depends on several factors such as the vehicle model, multimedia device, account, country, and purchase date. 

We need a billing address for your invoice, to be sent after each payment or refund. When adding a new card, the billing address associated must be notified. This address is used for security purposes (3DS validation).

The subscription fee covers such as the cost of mobile data, licenses, cloud services, and software maintenance. The subscription ensures to keep your vehicle's conected features running securely and reliably.

This is a one-time secure validation required when adding a new card.

The EU Data Act (Regulation (EU) 2023/2854) is a regulation that ensures fair access to and use of data generated by connected products and related services. In the automotive context, this includes:

 

  • Connected vehicles (cars, vans, trucks with telematics capabilities)

 

  • Smart home chargers (EV charging stations)

 

  • Related services like mobile apps for remote vehicle control or charging management

Vehicle Data: Data generated by the operation and performance of the vehicle, listed in the categories below.

 

Location data: 

  • Geolocation information (e.g., geolocation of your vehicle (longitude and latitude), planned destination, journeys, direction of travel), at precise times;
  • Journey information (e.g., recent destinations, favourite destinations).

Telematic data:

  • Driving behaviour (e.g., driving logs, driving speed, acceleration, and brake speed);
  • Technical vehicle data (e.g., mileage, fuel consumption, warnings) and diagnostic data (e.g., system failures and warning lights);

Home Charger Data: Data generated using home chargers, listed in the categories below.

  • Charging Session Data: Information about each charging session, including start and end times, duration, and energy consumed.
  • Energy Consumption Data: Detailed records of the amount of electricity used during charging, often broken down by time intervals.
  • Charging Efficiency: Data on the efficiency of the charging process, including any losses that occur during charging.
  • Device Status: Real-time status updates of the home charger, such as operational status, error codes, and maintenance alerts.

Related Service Data: Data representing your interactions with our services, including navigation history, vehicle and/or home charger control.

 

Metadata: Data necessary to interpret the above categories, such as descriptions, timestamps. location and units of measurement.

The EU Data Act, grants significant rights to the users of connected products. These rights are designed to give you greater control, transparency, and flexibility over how your data is accessed and used.

 

More specifically:

 

1. Right to View and Receive Data

 

You have the right to access and receive the data generated by your connected product and its associated digital services. This includes:

 

• Real-time and historical data such as location, fuel consumption, tyre pressure, engine diagnostics, and driving behaviour.

 

• Both personal and non-personal data, depending on the context of use (e.g., individual driver vs. fleet operator).

 

• Data must be provided in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, free of charge.

 

• This right ensures that you can understand what data is being collected and how it is used, and retrieve it for your own purposes — such as analysis, resale, or switching service providers.

 

 

2. Right to Share Data with Third Parties

 

You also have the right to instruct the vehicle manufacturer (or other data holders) to share your data with a third party of your choice. This could be:

 

• Independent repair shops or service providers for diagnostics and maintenance.

 

• Insurance companies for usage-based insurance policies.

 

• Fleet management platforms for logistics optimization.

 

• Digital service providers offering apps or tools that enhance your driving experience.

 

Manufacturers are legally obligated to make this data available to the third party you designate, under fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory terms. This promotes competition and innovation, and prevents lock-in to a single service provider.

 

 

3. Transparency and Access by Design

 

Manufacturers must ensure that:

 

• You are clearly informed about what data is collected, how it is used, and your rights.

 

• Vehicles, home chargers and services are designed with “access by design”, meaning data must be easily and securely accessible to you and your chosen third parties.

 

Examples

 

Example 1: Independent Maintenance: You want to use a local garage instead of Toyota’s service center. You can request that your vehicle’s diagnostic and maintenance data be shared directly with the garage, enabling them to perform repairs without needing proprietary tools or data.

 

Example 2: Insurance: You opt for a usage-based insurance policy. You can authorize your insurer to receive driving behavior data (e.g., speed, braking patterns) directly from your vehicle to calculate a personalized premium.

 

Example 3: Fleet Management: As a fleet operator, you can access real-time data from all vehicles in your fleet and share it with a third-party logistics platform to optimize routes, monitor fuel efficiency, and schedule maintenance. 

 

Example 4: Energy Consumption optimization. A third-party energy management company can combine data from a connected home charger, with that of other connected enrgy consuming devices, and provide reports and suggestions  to optimize charging times, reduce electricity costs, and improve energy efficiency based on real-time grid conditions and user preferences.

1. Toyota Customer Portal (Data Sharing Platform)

 

Through the Toyota Customer Portal, you can:

 

• View and download vehicle and home charger data such as trip history, fuel consumption, maintenance records, charging records and system alerts.

 

• Grant access to third parties like insurers, repair shops, or fleet managers.

 

• Monitor your vehicle’s performance and receive proactive service notifications.

 

• Please note that in order to use the Data Sharing Platform, you need to have a Customer Portal account.

 

This platform is designed to ensure transparency, ease of access, and compliance with the EU Data Act’s “access by design” requirements.

 

 

2. Vehicle Interface and On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) Port

 

Your vehicle is equipped with an OBD port, which allows:

 

• Direct access to real-time diagnostic data (e.g., engine performance, fault codes).

 

• Use of third-party OBD tools and apps to retrieve and analyze data independently.

 

• Support for independent service providers to perform diagnostics and repairs without relying on proprietary systems.

 

This ensures that you — or a service provider of your choice — can access essential vehicle data without restrictions.

 

 

3. MyToyota App (Companion Mobile App)

 

The MyToyota app offers a mobile-friendly way to:

 

• Access your vehicle and home charger data anytime, anywhere.

 

• Receive real-time alerts, track your driving behavior, and monitor vehicle health.

 

The app complements the customer portal and OBD interface, giving you full control over your data in a convenient and user-friendly format.

Through the Data Sharing Platform in the Toyota Customer Portal, you can grant access to third parties like insurers, repair shops, or fleet managers.

 

This platform is designed to ensure transparency, ease of access, and compliance with the EU Data Act’s “access by design” requirements.

No charge for personal access. A reasonable fee may be charged to third-parties that receive access to your data.

To support transparency and compliance with the EU Data Act, Toyota provides a comprehensive data catalogue that outlines the types of data generated by connected vehicles and available for access or sharing.

 

You can find the full list of available data — including technical, usage, and diagnostic data — through the Toyota Data Sharing Platform, accessible at:

 

https://eda.toyota-europe.com/

 

The catalogue contains:

 

Descriptions of each data type, including format, frequency, and source (e.g., GPS, sensors, ECUs). 

 

Categories of data, such as:

 

• Vehicle health and diagnostics

 

• Driving behavior and usage

 

• Location and trip data

 

• Environmental and sensor data

 

• Home charger data

 

This catalogue helps users and third-party service providers understand what data is available,— ensuring fair, informed, and secure data use.

You can access vehicle or home charger data (on behalf of the product user):

 

Indicative examples:

  • Perform remote diagnostics before a service appointment
  • Offer predictive maintenance (e.g., alerting when vehicle components are worn)
  • Provide charging support (e.g., program home chargers to initiate charging when tariffs are low)

Your responsibilities are defined in the relevant Terms of Use provided when you register for an account and raise an onboarding request. 

Yes, provided that the product user has raised a request. Examples:

  • An insurer accesses driving behavior data to offer a pay-how-you-drive policy
  • A fleet manager retrieves charging logs from home chargeres to optimize energy use
  • A mobility app uses vehicle location and lock status to enable car sharing

Via:

  • APIs (e.g., RESTful APIs for real-time vehicle telemetry)
  • The Data sharing platform. You can access the platform via https://eda.toyota-europe.com/
  • Standard formats (e.g., JSON, CSV)

 

Toyota Motor Europe (TME) ensures that data protected through robust technical and organizational safeguards, in compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

  • Security Governance: Company-wide policies and dedicated teams manage and oversee information security and privacy.
  • Vulnerability & Patch Management: Regular updates and third-party assessments to identify and fix security weaknesses.
  • System & Network Security: Use of encryption, antivirus, access controls, and monitoring to protect IT infrastructure.
  • Cloud & Vehicle Security: Specialized controls for cloud environments and vehicle systems, aligned with international standards (e.g., ISO 21434, UNR155).
  • Incident Response: Structured processes to detect, report, and respond to security and privacy incidents.
  • Data Privacy Compliance: Adherence to GDPR, including data subject rights and vendor compliance checks.
  • Training & Awareness: Ongoing education for employees on data protection responsibilities.
  • Confidentiality & Access Control: Strict rules for handling sensitive information and limiting access based on roles.
  • Risk Management: Regular assessments and mitigation planning for data protection risks.

If the requirements in the Terms and Conditions are not met, Toyota may refuse access to the data. In this case, you can file a complaint through your dealer or via the MyToyota app or website, and an authorized representative will address your issue.
