US EditionToyota Retains Top Spot in 1st-Half Global Sales for 6th Straight Yr
JAPAN, JUL 30 – Toyota's global sales rose 7.4% to a record 5.54 million vehicles in H1 2025, driven by hybrid demand and a tariff cut from 25% to 15% under a new U.S.-Japan trade deal.
- Toyota Motor Corp. achieved its highest-ever global sales for the first six months of 2025, delivering 5.54 million vehicles and securing its position as the world's top-selling automaker for the sixth year in a row.
- This milestone followed a rebound from a sharp 2024 domestic sales decline caused by rigged safety test data and supply issues, while higher U.S. tariffs created uncertainty.
- Strong sales gains in Japan, the U.S., and China, plus 27.4% domestic volume growth and a nearly 20% rise in domestic production, supported the record performance.
- The group’s global sales rose 7.4% with 937,246 vehicles sold in June, while a company official said last-minute demand has 'begun to settle down' amid tariff adjustments lowering U.S. duties to 15%.
- Toyota’s results suggest sustained hybrid vehicle demand and effective adaptation to tariff changes, helping it outperform rivals like Volkswagen despite intensifying EV competition in China.
