Toyota warns profits set to fall 21% as Trump tariffs take their toll

  • Toyota projected a 21% profit decline for fiscal year ending March 2026 due to U.S. tariffs and currency effects.
  • This forecast followed the Trump administration’s 25% auto tariff imposed on March 29 on 8 million imported cars annually.
  • Toyota expects tariff costs of 180 billion yen for April-May and a weaker dollar reducing profit when U.S. Earnings convert to yen.
  • Toyota CEO Koji Sato emphasized the significant uncertainty in the automotive sector caused by fluctuating global trade conditions, making it challenging to accurately predict future outcomes.
  • The profit drop signals broader risks for Japanese automakers amid prolonged trade tensions and could trigger price rises affecting consumer demand.
