The Toyota Highlander, Toyota RAV4, and the Toyota Corolla are consistently rated the best for Nigerian roads. They offer excellent durability, high ground clearance (especially the SUVs), readily available spare parts, and fantastic fuel economy. For commercial use, the Toyota Hilux and Hiace are unbeatable due to their ruggedness.

Tokunbo cars generally have lower mileage and less wear from Nigerian conditions, making them a premium choice. However, Nigerian-used Toyota cars are often cheaper and their maintenance history is better known. Carlots.ng recommends verifying the vehicle's history regardless of its status to ensure you get a reliable car.

Prices vary significantly based on the model year, condition, and whether the vehicle is Tokunbo or Nigerian-used. As a rough guide (as of 2025):

• Toyota Camry (2007-2012): Ranges from ₦3,500,000 to ₦7,000,000.
• Toyota Corolla (2010-2015): Ranges from ₦5,000,000 to ₦9,000,000.
• Newer Models (2018+ Tokunbo): Can range from ₦15,000,000 upwards.

No. Toyota is famous for its low maintenance costs in Nigeria. Spare parts for popular models like the Camry, Corolla, and Sienna are widely available and relatively affordable in major markets like Ladipo (Lagos) and spare part clusters nationwide. This ease of maintenance is a primary reason for the brand's dominance.

Virtually all Toyota models maintain strong resale value, but the Land Cruiser, Hilux, and the core models like the Corolla and Camry consistently top the charts. Their reputation for durability means buyers are willing to pay a premium for used models, guaranteeing a good return on your investment.
