Toyota sold 10.8 million vehicles in 2024, remaining the world’s top-selling automaker for the fifth consecutive year. However, sales in China dropped by 6.9%, and global sales fell by 3.7%, mainly due to challenges in Japan.
Toyota Motor announced on Thursday that it sold 10.8 million vehicles in 2024, maintaining its position as the world’s top-selling automaker for the fifth consecutive year.
Despite achieving record global sales, the Japanese manufacturer reported a 6.9% decline in car sales in China, driven by intense price competition in the world’s largest automotive market. Additionally, Toyota’s global sales fell by 3.7% overall, largely due to a sharp drop in Japan. This decline was attributed to management issues related to certification procedures, particularly within its subsidiary, Daihatsu.
