Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of product innovation, brand image, after-sales service, experiential marketing, and product quality on purchase intention and its impact on purchasing decisions of Toyota Avanza consumers in Semarang City. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach with primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to 120 respondents selected by purposive sampling. Data analysis employed the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique using AMOS 18 software. The results indicate that all five independent variables—product innovation, brand image, after- sales service, experiential marketing, and product quality—have a positive and significant effect on purchase intention. Furthermore, purchase intention significantly affects purchasing decisions. Among the tested variables, product quality and product innovation were found to have the greatest influence on purchase intention, followed by brand image, experiential marketing, and after-sales service. These findings suggest that Toyota’s success in maintaining consumer interest and purchasing decisions largely depends on its ability to provide superior product quality, continuous innovation, and memorable customer experiences. The study contributes to marketing management literature by highlighting the integrated role of innovation and experiential marketing in shaping consumer behavior in the automotive sector.
