Lewisville, TX- Did you know that Toyota is the #1 selling brand of hybrid vehicles in America? Or that Toyota is the full-line automotive manufacturer with the most fuel-efficient vehicles? Well, now you do, and, with the release of four new hybrid vehicles in 2012, the selection of Toyota brand vehicles with exceptional fuel efficiency is even vaster. Allow me to introduce you.

1) Toyota Camry Hybrid LE
2.5 L engine – 4 cylinder – 156 horsepower

More than just a family car. A car that gets 43 MPG in the city and 39 MPG on the highway, this four-door sedan is not only swift looking, but it also comes in nine different colors. Equipped with four wheel ABS brakes and front wheel drive, the Toyota Camry Hybrid LE is one of the smoothest and safest rides around and comes jam-packed with top shelf amenities like one touch automatic windows, intermittent windshield wipers and remote keyless entry.

2) Highlander Hybrid SUV
3.5 L engine – V6– over 230 horsepower

 Family friendly with an air [bag] tight seal. With 28 MPG both in the city and on the highway, the four-door Highlander Hybrid SUV is efficient in fuel consumption and effective in safety. Introducing the vehicle with dual front side impact, dual front impact, overhead and even knee airbags- sure to make anyone feel snug. Available in 6 colors, this vehicle offers additives like a rear sporty (to achieve that athletic vibe), a rear seat entertainment system, a windshield wiper that de-ices and a automatically-powered lift gate, making your life that much easier.

 3) Prius Hybrid
1.8 L engine – 4 cylinder – 98 horsepower

Keen on going green. Decked out with a hybrid synergy drive system and a solar powered sunroof, this four-door five passenger hatchback get 51 MPG in the city and 48 on the highway, making it the perfect fit for our eco-friendly advocates. Add to that equation features like brake assist and anti-whiplash front head restraints and it looks like Mother Nature just became a lot more nurturing.

4) Prius v Hybrid
1.8 L engine – 4 cylinder – 98 horsepower
Prius V Hybrid @ Toyota of Lewisville 

Futuristic aesthetics. It’s not just a wagon; it’s a hybrid wagon, and one that gets 44 MPG in the city and 40 on the highway. The Toyota Prius v Hybrid Wagon is slightly larger than the classic Prius and comes in one of three trims: Prius v Two, Prius v Three & Prius v Five.

What is your favorite thing about working at Toyota of Lewisville? I love my hours. I also love that I am able to talk to customers and other TOL employees every day. I have the ability to have freedom move around all day. I would just go crazy if I sat in a chair the whole day!

When Rene’ began his career in the automotive industry in 1984, he believed his hard work and attention to customer service would lead him to accomplishing a life-long dream of opening his own dealership. Today he owns two dealerships—one in Dallas, one in Houston–and is the Chief Operating Officer of the John Eagle Dealerships.

After 20 years in the business, in April 2004, Rene’ opened his first dealership, Rene’ Isip’s Toyota of Lewisville to better serve the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Toyota of Lewisville is one of the highest volume Toyota dealerships in Texas and followed upon his noteworthy and legendary success at Lute Riley Honda where he sold more than 700 cars in a month on several occasions as the General Manager of the dealership.

Rene’ Isip’s Toyota of Lewisville is known for being a high volume dealership, but Rene’ has found new inroads in the community and through technology to continue leading the industry in many varied facets.  For one, Rene’s passion for sales events has helped Toyota of Lewisville earn national recognition for their hugely successful Toyotathon year-end sales event.  In 2009, Toyota of Lewisville gave away $3,100 giveaway to celebrate the 31st annual Toyotathon—a highly publicized event on the dealerships web pages and Facebook pages.  The store also owns one of the top Twitter accounts in the nation with more than 3,300 followers.

As for next steps?  The forward thinking Isip notes, “We plan on doing something even more exciting this year for Toyotathon.  It’s going to be HUGE. Stay tuned.”

With his foresight to give back to the community there’s little doubt that his customers will benefit from the next promotion that the merchandising guru takes to market.  More than anything Isip believes in supporting and giving back to the community where his employees and customers live and work.  In the midst of the economic downturn, Isip and the City of Lewisville negotiated a 10-year, $1.5 million partnership to maintain the city’s Toyota of Lewisville Railroad Park. The park is a 269 acre facility with four baseball fields, four football fields and eight soccer fields in the heart of Lewisville, just outside Dallas.

The park also offers the community a scenic walking path and three man-made lakes to control flooding in the area. One of the main attractions is the Toyota of Lewisville Dog Park – allowing people to let their dogs off their leashes to enjoy the freedom to roam and play with other dogs.
Within the same facility, the Scion of Lewisville Skate Park is the second largest skate park in Texas. The 33,000 sq. ft. skate park is home to skate boarders and BMX bikers and offers a fun, safe environment for skaters all over the Dallas Ft. Worth area.

“I believe in the importance of participating and giving back to the community,” said Isip.  “Toyota of Lewisville Railroad Park just made to much sense to keep us connected with our community.”

Rene’ Isip opened his second dealership, Honda Cars of Katy, in November 2007.  Honda Cars of Katy, located in Katy, Texas, is one of the highest volume Honda dealerships in Texas.

At Honda Cars of Katy both employees and customers are treated like family.  Isip equipped his teams at Honda Cars of Katy and Toyota of Lewisville with the best facility and technology available. The dealerships have a progressive atmosphere that offer customers nothing but the most professional and comfortable service areas.  Both dealerships have free Wi-fi, HD television waiting areas, business waiting areas for laptop accessibility as well as a full grill where customers can order food or even have a free cup of coffee.

“People make the difference,” said Isip. “With as many dealerships as there are in Houston and Dallas, we had to have something that sets us apart from the rest. Our employees believe in taking care of the customer first.”

Now, Rene’ Isip is also the proud recipient of NAMAD’s Lifetime Achivement Award.  He will, no doubt, be a leader in the automotive industry for years to come.  With a strong emphasis on customer service and satisfaction, his dealerships continue to thrive and grow.  We look forward to seeing even more achievements to come and what he has in store for Toyotathon 2011.
