Toyota Crowned Best-Selling Car Company of 2024

Although Toyota’s electric vehicle efforts have actually had a rough beginning, its massive series of combustion-engine vehicles has actually allowed the business to get to every edge of the globe. From small kei automobiles for Japan to full-size SUVs for America, we can not believe of a gap in Toyota’s lineup. It has sedans, wagons, trucks, minivans, and also a couple of performance cars and trucks, although versions like the GR86 and GR Supra are niche items and subsequently do not move the needle.

The Hyundai Motor Group, which includes the major brand name Hyundai along with Kia and Genesis, is likely to claim the last area on the podium after signing up 7.23 million sales in 2024, or 1 % less than the year before.

Also without considering its December sales, which have yet to be reported, Toyota already has a significant advantage of 618,438 vehicles over the VW Group. For the 5th year straight, the Japanese titan is the world’s greatest automaker. That’s regardless of a 3.6% decline in sales between January and November contrasted to the exact same period in 2023.

Once again, the VW Group fell short to capture up in spite of having far more sub-brands under its huge company umbrella. The German auto conglomerate likewise provides a more comprehensive array of plug-in crossbreeds and EVs, however that had not been enough to uncrown Toyota.

Toyota hasn’t published full sales results for 2024, however it currently has a factor to commemorate. Via November, it sold 9,857,938 cars globally. For clarity, the number also consists of units sold by its Lexus, Daihatsu, and Hino subsidiaries. Today, the Volkswagen Team revealed its complete sales results for the last 12 months, throughout which deliveries fell by 2.3% to 9,239,500 vehicles and autos.
