Japanese automaker Toyota Motor reported strong sales and production growth in September, driven by rising demand in the United States and recovery from last year’s production disruptions.
According to a report by Reuters, Toyota’s global output grew 11% year-on-year in September to 918,146 vehicles. The maker of Fortuner and Innova models witnessed a 29% surge in U.S. production, fuelled by higher demand for hybrid vehicles and the resumption of production of two previously suspended models.
In Japan, Toyota’s production rose 9%, while China saw a 16% increase. Globally, sales rose for the ninth consecutive month, advancing 3% to 879,314 vehicles in September. Regionally, the automaker posted a 14% rise in US sales, offsetting a 5% decline in Japan.
Overall, Toyota has sold 7.8 million vehicles in the first nine months of 2025, up 5% from the same period last year.
In India, Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) reported a 15% year-on-year increase in September sales to 31,091 units, including 27,089 domestic and 4,002 export units. For the first half of FY26, TKM’s cumulative sales stood at 1,84,959 units.
