All weather floor mats for sale

The two XLE cars I test drove had no cloth floor mats. Only had the all weather matte still wrapped in plastic. I’m wondering what they come with if you don’t have the all weather mats as an add on accessory. Maybe that’s when you get carpeted mats? This is what I’m trying to figure out.

 

ALL floor coverings are accessories. You don't automatically get one or the other. (speaking US market here)

When the car is shipped from the factory in Japan, it has no mats/liners in it. When it gets to the destination port, mats/liners are thrown in depending on how the car was ordered/allocated. Some dealerships/regions will go with mats, others will go with liners. Some might even go with neither(though that's rare). Sometimes a region will go one way, while a dealership within that same region will go a different way. It depends on what they think will sell the best. In general, northern regions are more likely to get liners. But that doesn't mean all northern cars will have them. Dealerships can change accessories once the car has been allocated to them.

 

So maybe the Canadian dealerships include both since another Canadian forum member received both. You would think they would want to cut costs.

Canadian website doesn’t even list mats as an accessory option but they have the window deflector option. I’d rather that than the door sill protectors. I know I can add them myself.

 

Did they actually receive both? I don't think they did. IIRC, they saw a charge of something like $300 for floor mats/liners on the car they were waiting for, but also saw them advertised for around $170 on the Toyota website. They mistakenly thought maybe they were getting both, when in reality they were getting the floor and CARGO mat/liner package.

 

Not sure. She was going to send a photo when she has time because she supposedly has carpet attached to back of rear seats. Might be a misunderstanding.

 

This is ages ago, but an article was explaining that the sometimes-coveted and much-envied "new car smell" is actually the smell of your future cancer, because almost all the glue/plastic/rubber VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) are carcinogenic. As further confirmation, Mercedes-Benz was at the time bragging that their new cars DON'T smell; and what you're NOT smelling is worth paying extra for.

 

I really like the Rubber floor mats and cargo / seat back combo. Seems like quality stuff. Should also really help protect the seat backs when loading stuff with the seats folded down as pictured.

 

Paid 299 for 4 rubber floor mats and the cargo liner. It came as part of the installed package.

 

Turned out to be all-weather floormats only. What a blatant ripoff. Bought my own NON-OEM cargo liner off eBay.

 

Yes to all of this. I have chemical sensitivities. It’s one of many reasons I usually buy a used car. At least with Toyota they focus on using some low VOC glues and components. There are notes on my file at the dealership “Do NOT detail the inside”. I will be driving with my windows open and baking the car in the sun to release as much as possible as quickly as possible.

I’ve test driven a few with softex and it’s not so bad. I tried sitting in one with cloth seats but the moment I started to enter the car I could smelled intense chemical odor and had to skip the test drive. It had just arrived so everything was freshly unwrapped. : }

 

Probably not. Our hybrid Camry shipped with the Toyota rubberish ones, and frankly they are wonderful. We live in the country, and the carpet mats were always grubby. Now we just pull them out and rinse them off. When my 2012 Prius shipped with fabric floormats, I refused to pay for them, and the dealer just gave them to me. My plan was to get weathertechs for that one, but the carpet was ok.

 

Another Toyota From the Southeaster Toyota wont sell you the car if you dont agree to purchase the 999.00 deal for lug nuts, floor mat and tint.
