Toyota aims to produce and sell 10.2m vehicles next year, keeping targets largely flat from its 2015 estimates amid sluggish demand in southeast Asia.

Toyota says it plans group production of 10.2m units in 2016, including vehicles manufactured by Daihatsu Motor and Hino Motors, with sales volume set at 10.1m units. That would mean Toyota production topping 10m units for the fourth consecutive year but with both totals less than 1% ahead of the forecast 2015 totals.
