Our Sonic Identity System uses recognizable sound to connect people with our brand. These audio expressions work across various touchpoints and evoke an emotional response that creates stronger brand familiarity.

Endlessly Flexible

Culturally, emotionally and musically flexible, our system will continue to evolve to include more elements.

 
 
 
 
 
 
Inspired by the Name

The audio equivalent of a visual logo, our 3-note Signature mimics the phonetic elements of the word Toyota, "Oh-Oh-Ah."
