Toyota Motor Corporation reported a 9.5% rise in global group sales to 825,217 vehicles in February 2025, including its Daihatsu and Hino subsidiaries, driven by a 52% rebound in Japan to 177,968 units from depressed year-earlier levels while overseas sales rose by just under 2% to 647,249 units. Sales in Japan last year were hit by extensive production stoppages at the group’s small car unit Daihatsu due to its safety test rigging scandal.
In the first two months of 2025 the group’s global sales increased by 5.5% to 1,671,961 units, with sales in Japan surging by over 38% to 348,397 units while overseas sales were down slightly at 1,323,564 units.
Global sales of Toyota- and Lexus-branded vehicles increased 3% to 1,547,349 units year-to-date, with sales in Japan rising by 20% to 259,821 units, while overseas sales were flat at 1,287,528 units. Sales in North America fell by 4% to 391,346 units, which was offset by a 10% rise in Latin America (excluding Mexico) to 73,496 units and a 3% rise in Europe to 187,684 units. Sales in Asia, outside Japan, were 1% lower at 453,709 units.
Toyota and Lexus reported a 21% rise in global sales of electrified vehicles to 755,806 units in the first two months of the year, accounting for almost 49% of total sales.

Daihatsu’s global sales rebounded by 71% to 106,310 units year-to-date following last year’s production stoppages, with sales in Japan surging by 173% to 82,423 units while overseas sales plunged by 25% to 23,887 units.
The group’s commercial vehicle unit, Hino Motors, reported a 1.4% drop in global sales to 18,302 units in this period, with sales in Japan continuing to recover - by 10% to 6,153 units - while overseas sales dropped by 6% to 12,149 units.
