The Toyota Group plans to sell 10.76 million vehicles in 2019
- A few days before the end of the year, the Toyota Group (Toyota, Lexus, Hino, Daihatsu) announced that it sold 10.55 million vehicles worldwide in 2018 and plans to sell 10.76 million vehicles in 2019.
- These volumes increase 2% in 2018 and 2% in 2019, despite a Chinese market expected to be stable and a US market expected to be down. These two markets account for 35% of Toyota's total sales. Japan accounts for 22% of the manufacturer's total sales. This market is expected to show minimal growth in 2019. The markets that should drive growth are Europe, Russia, Indonesia, Thailand, Australia, Canada and Brazil.
- In Japan, Toyota sold 2.3 million vehicles in 2018 and expects to sell about as many in 2019. The manufacturer traditionally occupies nearly 45% of the Japanese market, ahead of all competitors.
- World number one from 2008 to 2015 - with the exception of the year 2011, when a very strong tsunami in Northeast Japan affected all Japanese manufacturers - the Toyota group lost its title in 2016 to the benefit of the Volkswagen group.
- In 2017, the Toyota group was ranked third in the world, behind Volkswagen group, and Renault-Nissan that had just bought Mitsubishi Motors. In 2018, the Toyota group is expected to maintain its third place in the world, as Volkswagen and Renault-Nissan are expected to each reach a volume close to 11 million vehicles.
- The final results will be known at the end of January 2019.
