                            0.750% NOTES DUE 2008

      TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION, a California corporation (hereinafter,
the "Company," which term includes any successor corporation under the
Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to
pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of
(Y)25,000,000,000 on June 9, 2008 (the "Stated Maturity Date"), and to pay
interest thereon from June 8, 2001 or from the most recent date on which
interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually on June 9 and
December 9 (each, an "Interest Payment Date") in each year commencing
December 9, 2001, and at maturity at the rate of 0.750% per annum, until the
principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment.

      Interest on this Note shall be payable in equal semiannual installments
(except for the first payment) of (Y)3,750 per (Y)1,000,000 on June 9 and
December 9 in each year, beginning on December 9, 2001. The first payment of
interest will be made on December 9, 2001 for the period from and including
June 8, 2001 to but excluding December 9, 2001 and will be in an amount equal
to (Y)3,781 per (Y)1,000,000 denomination. Whenever it is necessary to
compute any amount of accrued interest in respect of the Note for a period of
less than one full year, other than with respect to regular semi-annual
interest payments, interest will be calculated on the basis of the actual
number of days in the period and a year of 365 days.

      If a date for payment of principal or interest on this Note falls on a
day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if
any, or interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made
on the date the payment was due. No interest shall accrue on any amounts
payable for the period from and after the date for payment of principal or
interest on this Note. For these purposes, "Business Day" means any day which
is a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle
payments and are open for general business (including dealings in foreign
exchange and foreign currency deposits) in: (a) the relevant place of
payment, and (b) The City of New York, Tokyo and London.



<PAGE>

      The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on any
Interest Payment Date will as provided in the Indenture be paid to the Person
in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered
at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment
Date, which shall be the May 20 or the November 20 (whether or not a Business
Day) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest
which is payable, but not punctually paid or duly provided for on any
Interest Payment Date, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered
Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the Person in whose
name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the
close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the
Holder of this Note not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date,
or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner, all as more fully
provided in the Indenture.

      Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made
under the terms and conditions set forth in the Exchange Rate Agent
Agreement, dated as of June 8, 2001, between the Company and The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as exchange rate agent, relating to this Note; PROVIDED,
however, that at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made
by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address
shall appear in the Security Register; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that AT THE
OPTION OF THE COMPANY, the Holder of this Note shall be entitled to receive
payments of principal of and interest on this Note by wire transfer of
immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have
been received by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable
payment date.

      Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set
forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

      This Note is one of a series of Securities designated under the
Indenture as 0.750% Notes due 2008 (the "Notes").

      Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or
on behalf of The Chase Manhattan Bank, the Trustee under the Indenture, or
its successor thereunder, by the manual signature of one of its authorized
officers, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture
or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

Trust Company, pursuant to which The Chase Manhattan Bank acts as Trustee of
the Securities (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any
successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of
the Securities and the terms upon which the Securities are to be

or as a result of such payment by the United States or any political
subdivision or taxing authority, will not be less than the amount provided
for in this Note to be then due and payable before any deduction or
withholding for or on account of any such tax, assessment or governmental
charge. The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply to:

have been so imposed but for:

                  beneficial owner, if the beneficial owner is an estate, trust,
                  partnership or corporation) and the United States, including,

                  income tax;

            (b) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not

due and payable or the date on which payment is duly provided for, whichever
occurs later;

(ii) is a bank extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the

                  or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental
                  charge (including backup withholding), or

                  reporting or other similar requirements under United States

            (g) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be

introduced in order to conform to, such Directive;

            (i) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge withheld or
deducted from a payment to a Holder who would have been able to avoid such
withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant note to another paying agent
in a member state of the European Union; or

            (j)   any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g),
(h) or (i);

nor will Additional Amounts be paid to any Holder in respect of a beneficial
owner who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner
of this Note to the extent a settlor or beneficiary with respect to the
fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner of this Note
would not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts had the
beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the sole beneficial owner
of this Note.

            This Note is subject in all cases to any tax, fiscal or other law or
regulation or administrative or judicial interpretation applicable thereto.
Except as specifically provided herein, the Company will not be required to make
any payment with respect to any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed
by any government or a political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
therein.

            The term "United States" means the United States of America

possessions and other areas subject to its jurisdiction.

that is for United States federal income tax purposes:

            (1)   a citizen or resident of the United States,

            (2)   a coporation, partnership or other entity created or organized
                  in or under the laws of the United States or of any political
                  subdivision thereof,

            (3)   an estate the income of which is subject to United States
                  federal income taxation regardless of its source, or

            (4)   a trust if (i) a court within the United States is able to
                  exercise primary supervision over the administration of the
                  trust and (ii) one or more United States persons have the
                  authority to control all substantial decisions of that trust.

            The term "non-United States person" means a beneficial owner of this

regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States or any
political subdivision thereof or therein affecting taxation, any change in
the official application or interpretation of such laws, including any
official proposal for such a change, amendment or change in the application
or interpretation of such laws, which change, amendment, application or
interpretation is announced or becomes effective after June 1, 2001 (the date
of the prospectus supplement relating to this Note) or which proposal is made
after that date, as a result of any action taken by any taxing authority of
the United States which action is taken or becomes generally known after such
date, or any commencement of a proceeding in a court of competent
jurisdiction in the United States after that date, whether or not such action
was taken or such proceeding was brought with respect to the Company, there
is, in that case, in the written opinion of independent legal counsel of
recognized standing to the Company, a material increase in the probability
that the Company has or may become obligated to pay Additional Amounts (as
described above), and the Company in its business judgment, determines that
the obligation cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available
to it, not including assignment of any Note, the Notes may be redeemed, as a
whole but not in part, at the Company's option at any time thereafter, upon

continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in
the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

      The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be
affected thereby at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent
of the Holders of 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of each series affected thereby. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on
behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series, to waive
compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and
certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such
consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding
upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note
issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in
lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
this Note.


<PAGE>

      No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or
of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this
Note at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed.

      As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Security Register
of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by,
the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

      The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of (Y)1,000,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes
are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes as requested by
the Holder surrendering the same.

      No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

      Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the
