Toyota is confirmed as the world’s leading manufacturer in February – Corriere.it

Toyota global sales update the record for the month of February, supported by the recovery of the domestic market and the easing of critical issues in the supply of semiconductors. The Japanese automaker has sold 773,270 cars worldwide in the second month of the yearan increase of 10.3%, and a value more than quintupled in Japan with almost 156 thousand cars, thanks to the fewer restrictions on Covid in the country and the improvement of production capacities.

Global sales are also good, excluding Japan: +3% to 755,800 units, which represents a record for February. Toyota last month reduced its global output target for the fiscal year ending March 31 to 9.1 million passenger cars from 9.2 million, citing shortages of automotive semiconductors.
The revised target still represents a record, with the world’s largest automaker expecting to produce a record 900,000 vehicles this month.
