Toyota ALPHARD

Executive Lounge seating■ Transporting Foreign VIPs by ALPHARD, a Popular Limousine in JapanThe most distinctive feature of the Executive Lounge, the top ALPHARD model, which is thetenth vehicle we introduced on November 16, 2018, is its seating in the rear first row. The seat iswider than that in the previous model by 100 mm on each side. Its large armrest allows passengers
to sit comfortably, as if they were in the business class seat of an airplane. Moreover, the seat isupholstered with premium nappa leather so that a passenger can feel relaxed. Power adjustable
ottomans can be extended back and forth to a maximum of 140 mm so that passengers of any bodysize can extend their legs for leisure and relaxation. The adjustable, stowable tables feature
3D-type wood grain panels that give the vehicle a premium feel, and the size of these tables is big
enough for a tablet or notebook. Passengers in the rear second row seats can get in and out of thevehicle smoothly using a switch.
Minivans tend to be viewed as utility vehicles in the U.S. and Europe. However, the Toyota
ALPHARD is as luxurious and spacious as a large sedan. Because of these features, it is highly
regarded by VIPs and politicians in Japan.
We introduced an ALPHARD vehicle to provide outstanding comfort to foreign VIPs. By the end1

of 2018, we will have a fleet of 39 ALPHARD vehicles, including the Executive Lounge.

■ Reason for Introducing the Executive Lounge
We introduced the vehicle because we believe that demand for transportation of wealthy foreign
guests and VIPs will grow leading up to 2020, due to official ceremonies commemorating theadoption of a new era name for Japan and the Rugby World Cup 2019 final in the country.
We have focused on the limousine service business, targeting foreign VIPs. Specifically, weintroduced the customized Toyota Hiace Grand Cabin vehicles last year as well as the new Century
vehicle models in September 2018.

Our Commitment to Limousine Service
TEITO Motor Transportation will make continued efforts to reinforce the limousine service
business while introducing new and upgraded services.
