    Toyota uses multiple third-party logistics providers to distribute vehicles and parts from manufacturing plants to dealerships via railroads, common carriers, and trucks. Distribution flows differ between North America and Europe, with European distribution relying more on regional hubs and truck transportation. Effective tracking of vehicles through the logistics network provides estimated delivery times and helps update customers.
