Toyota’s all times sales have surpassed the humongous 200 million mark in June. Toyota started producing cars in August 1935 and the first model was G1 truck.
It took the company 76 years and 11 months to achieve this landmark. Out of the total 200 million vehicles that Toyota has sold, 145.21 million were built in Japan and 55.12 million were manufactured in other markets. The best seller, without doubt has been the Corolla sedan which has mopped up a total of 39.08 million units alone.
At this cherishable moment, Toyota President Akio Toyoda said, “I wish to express my heartfelt appreciation to our customers the world over who made it possible for us to reach this milestone. I also have the most profound respect and gratitude for the efforts of all persons who were involved in developing, manufacturing, and marketing Toyota and Lexus vehicles over the years. We are determined to make our cars even better, to continue to give our customers the best possible product. This is the common goal of our 300,000 Toyota staff members worldwide.”
