Though the logo for Toyota looks like a T, it is actually three elipses depicting the heart of the customer, the heart of the product, and the ever-expanding technological advancements and boundless opportunities that lie ahead.
This symbol also represented Mars, the God of War, and also the symbol for 'man'.
The Volvo car and brand was sold to Ford in 1999.
The current Toyota Mark consists of three ovals: the two perpendicular center ovals represent a relationship of mutual trust between the customer and Toyota.
These ovals combine to symbolise the letter 'T' for Toyota.
The space in the background implies a global expansion of Toyota's technology and unlimited potential for the future.
