Toyota India records 23 per cent sales growth in first half of 2018

Toyota has just released its sales figures for the month of June and things are looking decent. The Japanese carmaker sold a total of 13,088 units in India this month. The company exported 1,014 units of the Etios series this month thus clocking a total of 14,102 units. 

Toyota sold 1,973 units in the domestic market and exported 1,655 units of the Etios series in June 2017 as a conscious decision to lower the volumes to lessen any impact on the dealers owing to the uncertainty surrounding implementation of GST in July 2017. 

The company has been able to register a 23 per cent growth in the first half of 2018 from January – June 2018 as compared to the same period last year. The progress is down to popular models including the Innova Crysta and the Fortuner. The recently introduced Yaris sedan has also contributed to the rising sales numbers.
