Toyota member benefits

From passenger vehicles through to SUVs and light commercial vehicles, Toyota offers a wide range of options that covers every driver’s need. With more than 50 years in the Australian market, there’s a reason the manufacturer is the nation’s best-selling car brand.

Toyota and HIA have a long-established partnership, offering members access to Association Fleet discounts across a wide range of vehicles. This level of discount gives HIA members the buying power that is usually only accessible by large national businesses. 

Toyota for Business provides a solution to all Fleet sizes from small- and medium-sized businesses to large organisations purchasing hundreds of vehicles. Locate your nearest dealership and find out more.

Here to help

Do you feel you need help managing your business and compliance obligations? Constantly evolving laws and regulations can at times make it hard to keep up, so HIA’s online resources and advice section can provide you with guidance any time. 

From handling disputes to managing employees, contractual questions or tips to make sure you get paid on time, our resources are designed to help you navigate any confusion you may have. Members get free access to all of HIA’s fact sheets on a diverse range of topics.

Of course, if you would like to speak to a member of HIA’s Workplace Services team for bespoke support, you can always reach out to us via email at enquiry@hia.com.au 

Economic outlook

If you’re also keen on staying informed about developments in the residential building industry, HIA offers members access to a range of economic reports and research, either free or at discounted rates. HIA’s Economics Group publishes a suite of reports throughout the year, covering many aspects of the industry, such as the new home market, home renovations, land supply, housing affordability, the availability of skilled trades and future housing requirements. The group also hosts events for members to attend to hear the latest housing outlook forecasts and analysis.
