While Toyota reigned supreme, its main competitor, Volkswagen Group, faced a slight downturn in sales, registering a 2.3 percent decrease to reach 9 million vehicles sold. This decline was primarily driven by efforts to reduce domestic fees and navigate price wars in the Chinese market.
Toyota also experienced a 3.7 percent decrease in sales during 2024. This dip was largely attributed to a meaningful decline in sales within Japan, a result of governance challenges surrounding vehicle certification procedures, especially at Daihatsu.
Despite these challenges, Toyota maintained its position as the world’s top-selling automaker in 2024, showcasing its enduring market strength and resilience.
