The Toyota Symbol is made up of three elipses. The big one, the one on the top and the horizontal on in the middle. They represent the heart of the global community, the heart of the customer and the heart of the company.

Pretty innovative and original

Toyota logo?
Hmmm...
I wouldn't mind if they changed the logo to this:




or well... at least if this still was available for the aftermarket... I know there have been a small private test production in DK...
But it never got longer than to the test unfortunately...

Re: toyota symbol

It's also the sign of the zodiac symbol for "Taurus, the Bull"

Re: toyota symbol

The Toyota symbol stands for a loom. Before they started making cars and trucks they made looms. The middle is the eye of the needle and the tread going through the eye.

Re: toyota symbol

I read somewhere that it's a trio of Crowns that represent the Toyota family of cars which were mostly named by variations of the "Crown" name or reference to royalty in different languages or parts of the world.
Names like:
Avalon
Camry
Carina
Celica
Corolla
Corona
Cressida
Starlet
Tiara
and so on...
