Toyota Egypt Launches 19th “Dream Car Drawing” Contest for Children to Inspire Creativity
Mr. Ahmed Monsef: “Our investment in children’s creativity is a true investment in Egypt’s future. This initiative allows children to devise innovative solutions for global mobility challenges and expand their creative horizons.”
Toyota Egypt Group continues its efforts to support promising Egyptian talents and foster children’s creativity by announcing the launch of the 19th edition of the “Dream Car Art Contest.” This global platform encourages children to imagine the cars of the future and express their ideas innovatively. This initiative confirms the company’s commitment to supporting emerging talents in Egypt and motivating new generations to think outside the box and provide innovative solutions to mobility challenges through art and imagination.
The contest is based on an integrated structure that grants children the opportunity to compete on two levels: Locally, where the best artworks within Egypt are selected and winners are honored with valuable prizes and certificates of appreciation during a major ceremony; and Globally, where the winning drawings qualify to represent Egypt in the finals held in Japan. This provides young creators with a unique opportunity to win an educational and cultural trip that includes visiting global Toyota factories and the landmarks of Tokyo.
In this context, Toyota Egypt Group invites creative children from all Egyptian governorates to participate in the new edition of the “Dream Car Art Contest 2026,” held at both local and global levels, giving participants the chance to represent Egypt internationally with their artwork. The contest is divided into three age categories: under 8 years old, 8 to 12 years old, and 12 to 15 years old. A specialized jury will select the top three drawings from each category. Winners will receive certificates of appreciation and valuable prizes, in addition to qualifying for the global finals—an experience that combines creativity, learning, and envisioning the future of sustainable mobility.
In this year’s edition, Toyota Egypt Group is pleased to collaborate with Diwan Bookstores, Samir & Ali, and Hedeya Stores as partners in the contest, as part of supporting and empowering children, enhancing their artistic creations, and encouraging them to express their creative ideas.
On this occasion, Mr. Ahmed Monsef, CEO of Toyota Egypt Group, stated: “Based on our role in supporting state efforts to nurture young creators and utilizing art as an effective tool for community awareness, the ‘Dream Car’ contest comes as an open invitation to every Egyptian child to unleash their imagination and express their vision for the future of mobility. Our investment in children’s creativity is a true investment in Egypt’s future, as this initiative allows children to think of innovative solutions for global mobility challenges and expand their creative horizons. Therefore, we emphasize that today’s imagination is the foundation for tomorrow’s innovation, and we are keen to support these talents and enable them to take their creations from the local to the global stage.”
The Toyota “Dream Car Art Contest,” which was launched globally in 2004, is one of the largest art competitions for children in the world, attracting more than 10 million entries from 151 countries and regions. The contest acts as a bridge connecting childhood imagination and artistic creativity to highlight children’s talents and encourage them to think about the future of the automotive world, sustainable mobility, and the development of automotive technology.
