Toyota increases capped price servicing costs - here are the details

It will now cost RAV4 owners an average of $260 per service, an increase of $30 per visit.

Toyota has updated its capped-price servicing costs compared to late last year, according to the local brand’s website.

Pricing for every Toyota model has gone up by between $15 and $50 per service.

New cars sold by Toyota can be had with a three- or five-year capped-price servicing plan, with Toyota’s still one of the most affordable in Australia despite the price increases.

The headline changes are to some of the brand’s most popular models, including the RAV4’s price increase of $30 per service over its five-year span, or the $25-30 price increase per service for HiLux utes over three years, depending on whether they’re a petrol or diesel respectively.

While increases like $50 per service doesn’t sound too bad once a year, the Yaris’s increase of $40 from its earlier price of $205 makes it a 20 per cent increase in the overall cost, up to $1225 for its whole five year span.

See the table below for the average cost per service and changes for each of the models in the Toyota range, plus the service intervals applicable to each of them.

Racing video games, car-spotting on road trips, and helping wash the family VL Calais Turbo as a kid were all early indicators that an interest in cars would stay present in Chris’ life, but loading up his 1990 VW Golf GTI Mk2 and moving from hometown Brisbane to work in automotive publishing in Melbourne ensured cars would be a constant. With a few years as MOTOR Magazine’s first digital journalist under his belt, followed by a stint as a staff journalist for Wheels Magazine, Chris’ career already speaks to a passion for anything with four wheels, especially the 1989 Mazda MX-5 he currently owns. From spending entire weeks dissecting the dynamic abilities of sports cars to weighing up the practical options for car buyers from all walks of life, Chris’ love for writing and talking about cars means if you’ve got a motoring question, he can give you an answer.
