Casio Announces Two-Year Partnership with TOYOTA RACING


  In a strategic move to amplify the global presence of its EDIFICE sports watch line, Casio Computer Co., Ltd. today announced a formal two-year partnership with TOYOTA RACING, the premier motorsports brand of Toyota Motor Corporation. Effective from January 2026, this collaboration aligns two iconic brands united by a shared philosophy of precision engineering, relentless innovation, and a profound passion for speed.


This alliance represents more than a sponsorship; it is a fusion of brand ideologies. EDIFICE, with its core concept of "Speed & Intelligence," creates timepieces that capture the dynamism of motorsports through high-tech materials like carbon and designs that evoke velocity. This mission finds a perfect counterpart in TOYOTA RACING, a brand dedicated to pushing the boundaries of automotive technology and expanding the global appeal of motorsports through top-tier competition.


"The determination, innovation, and passion for speed that define TOYOTA RACING are values that resonate deeply with the EDIFICE worldview," said a Casio spokesperson. "This partnership allows us to connect with a global audience of performance enthusiasts in an authentic and powerful way."


Visual Branding and Team Support


The partnership will be prominently visible throughout the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) season. The distinctive CASIO and EDIFICE logos will be featured around the headlights of the TOYOTA RACING hypercars, ensuring high visibility during races. Furthermore, Casio will supply the TOYOTA RACING team with EDIFICE timepieces, integrating the brand directly into the team's ecosystem.


A New Chapter for Both Brands


This announcement coincides with a pivotal moment for the Toyota motorsport division, which has recently rebranded from TOYOTA GAZOO Racing to TOYOTA RACING, signaling a renewed and focused commitment to its racing legacy. The partnership with Casio's EDIFICE line underscores this new beginning, pairing a watch brand built for speed with a racing team defined by it.


"Together with partners like Casio who share our vision, TOYOTA RACING is accelerating toward a future where advanced technology and the thrill of motorsport reach new audiences," stated a TOYOTA RACING representative.


Looking Ahead


Casio will actively support the TOYOTA RACING team as it tackles the grueling challenges of the World Endurance Championship. This partnership is a key component of Casio's broader mission to "bring new levels of joy to lives" by creating unprecedented value, demonstrating how cutting-edge technology and design inspired by the pinnacle of motorsport can deliver wonder to a global community of fans.

His latest exhibition, inspired by the majesty of Khmer royalty and the distinguished colour palette of the Raffles Royal Doorman, features vivid, brilliant hues often set against a stark backdrop. “The central concept revives the historical tradition of Khmer royalty, specifically focussing on the Royal Guards’ pantaloons. Historically, the colour of a king’s attire would change to correspond with the day of the week—a vibrant, visual reminder of the calendar and its spiritual significance,” said curator Nat Di Maggio of the local Tribe Art Gallery.
