If buying a certified pre-owned Toyota or Lexus has been on your mind, today is genuinely one of the best days of the year to act.
Al-Futtaim Toyota & Lexus is hosting a Pre-Owned Sales Event at the Toyota Showroom, Dubai Festival City — and today, May 17, 2026, is the final day of the three-day event.
Here’s exactly what’s on offer, which models are included, and whether it’s actually worth visiting today.
What’s on Offer: The Full Picture
This is not a typical dealership sale. Al-Futtaim Toyota & Lexus has structured this event specifically to remove every common barrier that makes buying a used car stressful.
Financial savings: Savings of up to AED 20,000 are available on selected certified pre-owned Toyota SUVs, including the Land Cruiser, Land Cruiser Prado, and RAV4. Family passenger cars — the Camry, Corolla, and Yaris — are also included with competitive pricing.
What’s included with every vehicle:
- Comprehensive quality inspection on every Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle
- Complimentary service and maintenance contract
- Free RTA registration — a saving of AED 350–550 that most buyers overlook
- Trade-in valuation available on-site
- Finance support — you can complete the entire purchase from browsing to driving away in a single visit
Why this matters: On a AED 250,000 Land Cruiser, an AED 20,000 discount plus free registration and a service contract represents a total saving that could exceed AED 23,000 compared to a standard purchase. That’s not a small number.
Which Models Are Available?
The event covers a broad selection across both Toyota and Lexus certified pre-owned inventory:
Toyota SUVs (highest demand):
- Land Cruiser — UAE’s most sought-after SUV, strong resale, savings up to AED 20,000
- Land Cruiser Prado — slightly more accessible price point than full LC, excellent desert capability
- RAV4 — best family crossover in Toyota’s lineup, strong fuel economy
Toyota Passenger Cars:
- Camry — UAE’s favorite mid-size sedan, comfortable on long Abu Dhabi highway runs
- Corolla — most reliable compact sedan, ideal daily driver
- Yaris — most affordable entry point into certified pre-owned Toyota
Lexus models are also featured at the event — specific Lexus inventory should be confirmed directly at the showroom or by calling 800 236 68677.
What Does “Certified Pre-Owned” Actually Mean?
This is an important distinction from a standard used car purchase. Every vehicle at this event is a Toyota/Lexus Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle — which means:
Multi-point inspection: Each car undergoes a comprehensive quality inspection by Toyota/Lexus-trained technicians. This covers mechanical systems, safety features, electronics, body condition, and more.
Documented history: CPO vehicles come with clear service and ownership history — the guesswork that makes buying a private used car risky is removed.
Manufacturer-backed assurance: The warranty and service contract come directly from Al-Futtaim Toyota & Lexus — not a third-party dealer. If something goes wrong, you deal with the brand’s own network, not an intermediary.
For buyers who want the value of a used car with something closer to the peace-of-mind of a new car purchase, CPO is the middle ground that makes sense.
Is Today Worth Visiting?
Today is the last day of the event. The honest answer is: if you’re considering a Toyota or Lexus in the next three to six months, it is worth showing up today for three specific reasons:
1. Inventory is genuinely broad. Three days of open-to-public sales means this event attracted serious buyers — which means the best combinations of model, spec, and mileage may already be spoken for. That said, Toyota Festival City holds significant stock and replenishes from the wider Al-Futtaim Automall network.
2. The all-in-one purchase journey. Trade-in valuation + finance support + RTA registration, all on-site in one visit, is genuinely rare. It eliminates the multi-day process of selling your existing car separately, arranging finance through a bank, then going to an RTA center.
3. Free registration today. The free RTA registration offer is event-specific. On a normal purchase, you’d pay this yourself after the sale.
Even if you don’t purchase today, visiting gives you a real-world benchmark for what certified pre-owned Toyota and Lexus vehicles cost — useful information for any purchase you make in the next few months.

Should You Buy CPO Toyota or New?
A fair question worth addressing directly. Here’s the honest comparison:
Buy Certified Pre-Owned if:
- You want a Toyota or Lexus at a meaningfully lower price with manufacturer-backed assurance
- You’re comfortable with a 2–4 year old vehicle with moderate mileage
- The included service contract and free registration make the total cost competitive with new
- You want to avoid the steep first-year depreciation that hits all new vehicles
Buy New if:
- You want the latest model year specs and tech
- You want full factory warranty from day one
- You plan to keep the car 7+ years and want the complete ownership history
- You want access to the hybrid variants (CPO stock of hybrids is more limited)
For buyers in the AED 120,000–200,000 range, the CPO option at this event likely offers the best value available right now in the Dubai market.
