Toyotas for a fortuitous Year of the Fire Horse
This week, the world welcomed the Year of the Fire Horse, which is said to be a rare pairing in the Chinese lunar cycle because it only occurs once every 60 years.
In a report from the British newspaper The Guardian, feng shui experts expect this year to bring intense, fast-paced change on a personal and global level. University of Sydney professor of Chinese Studies Xiaohuan Zhao told the publication that the Year of the Fire Horse is a period where “heightened energy must be managed wisely.”
Put another way, he said we must slow down and stay grounded before making major decisions. Such prudence certainly applies when we buy a brand-new car – that’s why market leader Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) is ensuring that Filipinos get the most out of their money with their February 2026 promos.
Easy buy-in
The Japanese carmaker said in a press statement that its Pay Low scheme is an all-in package with as low as 15-percent downpayment for participating models.
This option includes 60-month financing terms, free one-year comprehensive insurance, free three-year LTO registration and no chattel mortgage under select finance lease arrangements. TMP said Pay Low makes it easier for customers to secure a brand-new Toyota while enjoying bundled ownership benefits.
For instance, those who want to embrace the fire horse’s freedom and independence can get behind the wheel of the well-proven and reliable 2026 Toyota Vios 1.3 XLE CVT with a downpayment of just P136,200.
Low monthly payments
Meanwhile, Pay Light provides low monthly plans with 60-month payment terms – this allows buyers to maintain manageable monthly budgets so that they don’t get burned by the intensity of the fire horse.
TMP said this structure is ideal for those who want scheduled expenses without compromising their choice of vehicle. In fact, you can bring home a brand-new 2026 Toyota Raize 1.0 Turbo for as low as P10,651 a month.
Big discounts
Finally, some Filipinos herald the Year of the Fire Horse as a banner year for great fortune that must be spent wisely.
This is why TMP offers the Straight Cash Savings scheme for those want an immediate purchase. The carmaker said this option comes with substantial cash discounts, depending on model and variant.
For those looking for a hardy and robust vehicle to support an immensely energetic 2026, the Toyota Hilux 4×2 2.4 G A/T comes with savings up to P190,000 when paid in straight cash.
More bang for buck
TMP said these three flexible payment options are available on select Toyota vehicles from February 9 to 28, 2026 (subject to terms, credit approval where applicable, and model availability).
For those who want electrified mobility with Toyota dependability, HEV variants of the ATIV, Zenix, Yaris Cross, Corolla Cross and RAV4 are each available with Pay Low, Pay Light or Straight Cash Savings options.
In addition, those who buy a Toyota this month can get free Periodic Maintenance Service for selected Toyota models, Exclusive Service Discount Vouchers for the Tamaraw, trade-in rebates of up to P30,000 (redeemable as a cash discount or for Toyota Genuine Accessories) and free one-year comprehensive for select models.
Given that feng shui experts consider the Year of the Fire Horse to be a fast and intense time for the transportation sector, it seems that 2026 is set to be standout year for everyone involved with a proven brand like Toyota.
