In 1936, the company first entered into passenger business with a model AA. It then held a competition in the search for a logo. The entries were overwhelming and it hit the 27,000 marks. One out of all these entries was selected and the name was changed to Toyota from the original family name Toyoda (Ohno, 1998). The new name was received very well and the name itself is associated with well and good fortunes in Japan. The original logo was then to disappear and the new one was used.

Toyota in 1989 introduced a new worldwide logo during the commemoration of the companies 50 years in business (Mike, 2003). The logo was also aimed at differentiating the company from other companies with similar brands. The new logo had three ovals that combine to form the letter “T”, which stands for Toyota. The oval also had a larger meaning, the overlapping simply implies the good beneficial and mutual relationship between the company and the customer. The larger oval that surrounds the inner ones was to signify the global expansion of the company and its unlimited focus on the future (Mike, 2003).
