Japan’s Toyota Motor Corporation, the world’s largest vehicle manufacturer, reported a 6% increase in consolidated revenues to JPY 23,282 billion (US$151.2bn) in the first half of the current fiscal year (FY2025), covering the April-September 2025 period, despite continued production stoppages mainly at its Daihatsu in Japan after its subsidiary was found to have falsified safety tests on several models – some of which it also shared with other brands. This significantly affected the group’s operating results in the July-September quarter.
The company reported a sharp year-on-year rise in first-half FY2025 revenues in the US and Europe, due in large part to the weak yen and higher volumes in Europe, while revenues in Japan were flat.
