According to the most recent report by Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines Incorporated, Toyota Motor Philippines Corporation (TMP) sold 9,467 units in April, bringing the total of Toyota vehicles sold from the beginning of operations in 1989 to 1,000,468 units.

As a major player in Philippines’ local automotive manufacturing, more than 60 percent of the vehicles sold were produced at the former Bicutan plant and Santa Rosa plant in Laguna.

Of these, the Revo and Innova models sold a total of 268,065 units. Corolla sold 213,325 units, and the Vios sold 157,347 units.

Regarding the milestone, TMP president Michinobu Sugata commented: “Achieving one million sales is a great accomplishment for our company and the local automotive industry. We first thought this milestone would be reached in the latter half of the year, but strong sales led to reach this goal three months early.”

The accomplishment is owed to the customers and stakeholders, he added, and assured that the company would work harder to serve their customers even better and work harder to consistently provide better products.
