Heading in for a test drive at any dealership is a fun time, because you’re checking out a new Toyota vehicle and having fun driving it. However, it’s easy to get lost in the experience of driving a new vehicle without paying attention to the finer points of the car. So today, we at Keith Pierson Toyota want to give you our tips for making sure your test drive is as productive as possible.

For instance, if you’re coming into our Jacksonville, FL area Toyota dealership, then you’re going to want to do your research before even stopping in. What kind of vehicle are you in the market for? Do you want a storied sedan with years of reliability and innovative technologies behind it? Try out the 2019 Toyota Camry. Or are you looking for a crossover that combines speed and handling with an off-road spirit? Then you’re looking for the 2019 Toyota RAV4. There are also several different trims to consider, as well, especially if you’re going to consider a hybrid model.

When you get behind the wheel for your test drive, you’ve got a few things you need to feel out before you drive off the lot. Were you able to get in and out easily? How does the interior of the cabin feel? Is it easy to adjust options on the infotainment screen with a minimum of hassle? Get a feel for the overall experience of the vehicle itself while it’s sitting still.

But when you’re driving? Get into it! Find as many different traffic situations as possible. Highway traffic? Use it to test acceleration and the active safety features like blind spot detection. Stop-and-go traffic? Test other safety features like lane-keep assist with emergency braking and figure out how to navigate with the integrated touchscreen.

Going for a test drive is a great way to make sure this vehicle is what you’re looking for. So come into our Jacksonville, FL Toyota dealer to find the right car for your lifestyle today!
