The Heart of Your Toyota: Why Genuine Spark Plugs Matter

Have you ever pressed the accelerator expecting smooth, responsive performance, only to notice your Toyota hesitate? What may seem like a minor issue could be a sign that your spark plugs are no longer performing at their best. Now is the perfect time to restore your engine’s performance with Toyota Genuine Spark Plugs, available from as low as K114 (VAT inclusive).

Although small, spark plugs play a vital role in your vehicle’s performance. They ignite the air-fuel mixture within the engine, providing the power needed to keep your Toyota running smoothly and efficiently. As they wear over time, engine performance can decline, resulting in reduced acceleration, increased fuel consumption and a less refined driving experience.

To keep your Toyota performing as it was designed to, it is important to fit components that meet the manufacturer’s exact standards. Toyota Genuine Spark Plugs, featuring trusted technology, engineered to deliver precise ignition, optimal fuel efficiency and long-lasting reliability. They help maintain engine performance while protecting critical components from unnecessary wear.

When it comes to replacement parts, authenticity matters. Counterfeit spark plugs may appear similar, but they often fail to meet the quality and performance standards required by your vehicle. Inferior parts can lead to poor engine performance, increased fuel consumption and costly repairs.

Say NO to counterfeit parts and choose genuine Toyota reliability.

Do not wait for a misfire or loss of power to affect your driving experience. Visit your nearest CFAO Mobility branch or call 0971268000 to book an inspection and keep your Toyota performing at its best.

Clear Vision Saves Lives: Why Your Wiper Blades Matter More Than You Think

With the rainy season approaching, now is the time to make sure your windscreen wipers are ready for the conditions ahead.

After months of exposure to intense sunshine, heat and dust, your wiper blades may have become brittle and less effective. Do not wait until a sudden downpour exposes the problem. Replace your worn blades with Toyota Genuine Wiper Blades, available at a special price of K960 (VAT inclusive) from CFAO Mobility Toyota.

Every driver knows the feeling. The rain starts unexpectedly, visibility drops and you switch on your wipers expecting a clear view of the road. Instead, they smear water across the windscreen, leave streaks behind or screech with every movement.

In Zambia, the rainy season brings welcome relief from the heat, but it also highlights the importance of road safety. Clear visibility is not merely a matter of comfort. It is essential for safe driving and can make all the difference when conditions become challenging.

The Hidden Risk on Your Windscreen

Your wiper blades work hard throughout the year. During the long dry season, they endure relentless sunlight, high temperatures, dust and other harsh environmental conditions. Over time, the rubber can harden, crack and lose its ability to clear water effectively.

The trouble is that wiper blades often fail when you need them most, during heavy rain when visibility is already compromised.

This makes the start of the rainy season the ideal time to inspect and replace them. Designed and engineered to Toyota’s exacting standards, Toyota Genuine Wiper Blades deliver reliable performance and a consistently clear view in all weather conditions.

Is Your Vehicle Showing the Warning Signs?

Worn wiper blades often give clear indications that they need replacing. Watch out for the following:

🔹 Smearing
A film of water remains on the glass, reducing visibility and making it difficult to see clearly.

🔹 Streaking
Lines of water are left behind after each sweep, creating distractions and potential blind spots.

🔹 Squeaking
A persistent squeaking noise may indicate that the rubber is no longer making proper contact with the windscreen.

🔹 Skipping or Chattering
If the blades jump, judder or move unevenly across the glass, they are no longer cleaning the surface effectively.

If you notice any of these signs, it is time to replace your wiper blades.

Genuine Safety. Outstanding Value.

Do not wait for the first heavy storm to discover that your wipers are no longer performing as they should. Toyota Genuine Wiper Blades are currently available for just K960 (VAT inclusive), offering exceptional value without compromising on quality or safety.

While imitation products may appear similar, they often lack the durability, precision fit and performance of genuine parts. Inferior blades can significantly affect visibility in adverse weather, increasing the risk of an accident.

Choosing Toyota Genuine Parts means investing in proven quality, dependable performance and complete peace of mind every time you get behind the wheel.

Rain or Shine, Zambia Keeps Moving, Zambia Drives Toyota

Whether you are commuting to work, travelling with family or navigating busy city streets, clear visibility is essential for every journey.

Visit your nearest CFAO Mobility Toyota branch and have your wiper blades inspected by our trained technicians.

Call 0971268000 for more information.

Stay safe. Stay prepared. Stay confident on the road this rainy season with Toyota Genuine Wiper Blades.

Offer valid from 1 November 2026 to 30 April 2027.

CFAO Mobility Zambia Takes The 9th Generation Toyota Hilux Launch To The Copperbelt, Celebrating The Customers – Kitwe Branch

855512823_2262257134633713_2208529103784195594_n

The Copperbelt has always carried a certain weight in Zambia’s story. Its hills and underground tunnels hold the copper and cobalt that stretch across the border into the southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, minerals that have powered economies, built livelihoods and shaped the identity of a region whose people proudly call themselves the children of Kopala, a word derived from Copperbelt Province. It was in Kitwe, that CFAO Mobility Zambia chose to write the next chapter of one of the world’s most trusted nameplates.

On the evening of 16th October 2026, the Toyota Kitwe Branch came alive as CFAO Mobility Zambia unveiled the 9th Generation Toyota Hilux, not in Lusaka only, as launches so often are, but in the heart of the Copperbelt, among the customers who rely on their vehicles to generate income, support their families, and keep Zambia’s industries moving.

The choice of venue was no accident. It was a deliberate decision to honour the customers of Kopala, a region whose mining heritage stretches across the border region between north-central Zambia and the southern Democratic Republic of Congo, and whose contribution to the nation’s economy is second to none. By bringing the launch to Kitwe, CFAO Mobility Zambia made it clear that its commitment to customer appreciation extended far beyond the capital.

The momentous evening was graced by the distinguished Guest of Honour, Mr. London Mwafulilwa, Board Chairperson of CAMINEX and CEC, who proudly declared the Hilux a true milestone—one embodying safer roads and resilient logistics networks for the nation. His inspiring words set the tone for an unforgettable night celebrating innovation, strength, and progress.

Adding further prestige to the occasion was the Mayor Elect of Kitwe, Mr. Charles Kabwita, whose presence underscored the significance of this launch for the Kitwe community and beyond.

Mr. Peter Blomefield, Chief Operating Officer, reaffirmed CFAO Mobility Zambia’s unwavering commitment to reliable mobility that powers Zambia’s development journey, stating: “At CFAO Mobility Zambia, we understand that our customers depend on their vehicles to generate income, support livelihoods and drive economic growth. Our commitment therefore extends far beyond the sale of a vehicle. Through our nationwide network, factory-trained technicians, genuine parts availability and dedicated after-sales support, we remain committed to keeping our customers moving.”

In a powerful and heartfelt address, Mr. Charles Micheal Daka shared the vision behind the extraordinary venue choice: “We wanted this launch to happen here because this workshop tells a much bigger story than any showroom ever could.”

He continued with passion: “Tonight, we are unveiling a beautiful vehicle. A vehicle that is stronger, smarter, more capable and more refined than ever before. But we are also showing you something equally important: what stands behind that vehicle. The parts. The equipment. The diagnostic tools. The workshop. And most importantly, the people. Because at Toyota, we believe confidence does not come from the vehicle alone. Confidence comes from knowing there is a team ready to support you long after you drive away.”

The spectacular unveiling, delivered by the phenomenal Team Toyota, staff, Chief Operating Officer Mr. Peter Blomefield and the guest of Honor Mr. London Mwafulilwa, resonated even more.

Oh, what an event it was! The media houses were met with resounding applause and genuine admiration. Invited guests warmly celebrated the new model, enthusiastically commending its bold design, refined comfort and uncompromising power. The energy in the room was electric as the 9th Generation Hilux took center stage, proving once again why Toyota remains the trusted name in mobility.

Our sincere gratitude goes out to everyone who made this unforgettable evening possible: Team Toyota, our esteemed executives, directors, media partners, and every guest who joined us in celebrating this remarkable milestone. Here’s to the future of driving, stronger, smarter and more refined than ever before.

The 9th Generation Toyota Hilux had arrived. And for the people of Kopala, it had arrived home.
