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.
Scroll vervolgens naar de onderkant van de pagina; daar wordt het versienummer weergegeven.
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.

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.
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.
Om Connected Services te kunnen gebruiken, volg je deze stappen:
Registreer een account
Voeg je auto toe in de app
Selecteer de services die je wilt activeren
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 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:
Selecteer in MyGarage de juiste auto.
Ga naar het Connected Services Centre.
Hier zie je alle services die voor jouw auto beschikbaar zijn en hun activatiestatus.
Volg de stappen in de app om de beschikbare Connected Services te activeren.
Toyota Online (Multimedia) activeren
Om Toyota Online te activeren:
Verbind je smartphone met je auto via Bluetooth of Wi-Fi tethering.
Ga in het multimediasysteem naar Setup.
Selecteer Online en vervolgens Toyota Online.
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.
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.
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.
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 het SOC contact met jou opneemt, zijn hier geen kosten aan verbonden.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
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 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.
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)
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.
