The new Toyota Dealership will embody Toyota's global commitment to environmental responsibility, aligning with the company's ambitious environmental challenge for 2050.
Key features of the dealership's environmentally conscious design include:
The installation of an extensive solar generation and energy-storage system to harness renewable energy, thereby reducing reliance on conventional power sources and cutting carbon emissions.
The implementation of a substantial water harvesting, storage and filtration systems to collect and reuse water, minimising waste and conserving resources.
The updated facade enhances both the building's aesthetic appeal and its energy efficiency, comfort and natural lighting.
The incorporation of energy-efficient lighting, heating and cooling systems to optimise energy usage and minimise environmental impact.
Thoughtfully selected landscaping featuring indigenous trees and plants to enhance and preserve natural habitats.
Supergroup says its dealerships remain steadfast in their commitment to driving positive change in the automotive industry. The construction of this pioneering Toyota Dealership represents a significant stride toward achieving this goal, together with our objective of meeting and exceeding customer expectations and growing our relationship with Toyota SA.
