Data obtained from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) shows that Nigeria spent a whooping sum of N1.08 trillion to import used cars (popularly called Tokunbo) and motorcycles (Okada) in one year (October 2018 – September 2019) Nigeria remains a large import-dependent country, as the nation’s import bill between October 2018 and September 2019 rose to N15.19 trillion while the country’s export for the same period stood at N18.87 trillion. This implies that the country’s trade balance summed up to be N3.68 trillion.

Toyota Corolla

Corolla was the best-selling car worldwide by 1974 and has been one of the best-selling cars in the world since then. In 1997, the Corolla became the best-selling nameplate in the world, surpassing the Volkswagen Beetle. Toyota reached a milestone of 44 million Corollas sold over twelve generations in 2016. The series has undergone several major redesigns.
Toyota Camry
Toyota Camry is an automobile sold internationally by the Japanese manufacturer Toyota since 1982, spanning multiple generations. Originally compact in size (narrow-body), later Camry models have grown to fit the mid-size classification (wide-body) — although the two sizes co-existed in the 1990s. Since the release of the wide-bodied versions, Camry has been extolled by Toyota as the firm’s second “world car” after the Corolla. In Japan, Camry is exclusive to Toyota Corolla Store retail dealerships.
Toyota Sienna
Looking for a Family car? Toyota Sienna has always been the best car well equipped with a strong engine and an all-wheel drive for the family with seven people sitters. It is named for the Italian city of Siena, in the region of Tuscany. It replaced the first-generation Previa van in 1997 with a more conventional front-wheel-drive layout and shares a heavily revised platform with the Camry. Both the Previa and original Sienna were smaller than the other minivans they competed against, but a redesign in 2003 (for the 2004 model year) increased the dimensions to match those of its competitors.

Honda Accord (End of discussion )
Not only was this model very popular in Nigeria, but it was also projected as a symbol of status. The car came with the engine IV-Tec, which was considered a cutting-edge technology as of that time. This model got the name ‘End of discussion’ from the catchphrase the automaker made use of during the model’s advert.
