Toyota Sponsors RFL as Official Car Supplier

June 28, 2013

Japanese car manufacturer, Toyota has become the official car supplier to the Rugby Football League (RFL) in the UK and to England head coach Steve McNamara. 

As part of the three-year agreement, Toyota will provide the RFL with a fleet of 50 UK-built Auris hatchbacks. These will be used across the organisation, principally by performance and development staff, and are expected to cover more than a million miles per year.

James Mercer, RFL Commercial Director, said: “I am delighted to welcome Toyota, one of the biggest names in the motor industry, as our latest partner. To link up with such an established brand is a real coup and I look forward to working closely with them throughout the coming three years.”

Stuart Ferma, Toyota and Lexus Fleet Services’ National Sales Manager, said: “We are proud to be the vehicle supply partner for the Rugby Football League and are delighted that they have chosen the British-built Auris. The RFL are supporting British workers with their choice of car and we look forward to working with them in the future.”
