- The Toyota group (Toyota, Daihatsu, Lexus, Hino) has published its sales figures for the year 2020. Its worldwide sales reached 9.53 million units including heavy utility vehicles (passenger and utility vehicles), which represents a drop of 11.3% compared to 2019. Without heavy utility vehicles, the Toyota group has sold 9.39 million light vehicles (passenger and light utility vehicles). In both cases, the Japanese group is ahead (for the first time since 2015) of Volkswagen, as the German group did not exceed 9.12 million light vehicles and 9,31 million vehicles including heavy utility vehicles (-15,2% compared to 2019). The collapse of the European market caused the Volkswagen group a loss of 900,000 sales in 2020, while the Toyota group lost only 100,000 in the same market last year. It was this difference of 800,000 units that caused Toyota to overtake Volkswagen in 2020.
