Toyota Reports July Sales

TORRANCE, Calif., Aug. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Toyota Motor Sales (TMS),

"The industry stumbled this month, on continued housing weakness," said

July's record-setting sales, heightened demand for hybrids and crossovers

is reassuring, particularly with the next generation Highlander just now

hitting showrooms."

units, an increase of 4.9 percent.

Even with increased fleet sales (see articles posted in the forum confirming this), Toyota's monthly sales still decreased? Just wow!

As for cars: Scion sales are off... Corolla is WAY off. Yaris & Avalon? No surprise there.

Trucks: Highlander, 4Runner, Sequoia, Sienna, and FJ Cruiser all fell this month.

Posted

Tundra is way up, but it had $3500 on the hood or 0% for 60, so no big surprise there. If GM did that with the T900s they'd be selling about 120k combined/month.

In June, the Tundra had $5089 average in incentives on the hood.

What's up with the Corolla? Did Hertz not put in any orders for July?

Holy $h!! That must be an all-time record for a first year truck.

Almost as much as the Ram! I told you it would catch up before long...imagine how high they will be when it gets to be the Dodge's age!

This is the first time I've seen sales down in what seems like forever...that made my day! ^_^

wtf???

Prius outselling Yaris?

I can almost guarantee that's not the same trend we see in Canada. That extra $1000 our government threw on the hood of the Yaris means they're multiplying like... well, the rabbits they somewhat resemble.

Posted

Everyone note that the above totals of the "toyota division" INCLUDES scion, undoubtedly to mask the landslide decline in sales there.

toyota combines & separates at will to suit the particular marketing whim.

When I look at the numbers they look polar opposite.

The vehicles that have gained in numbers are the GASHOGS TURD AND LS460, and GAS-SIPPER Prius. Rest have been mediocre.

Crapolla, Yaris, Sienna have bombed really bad. So has the TC.

There is at least 1 error in the above chart (prolly more):

CAMRY 41,514 41,892 3.2

378 less units vs. '06 is a -0.009% change, not a +3.2% change. I guess rounding up as above the percent change would be 0.0%

scion is really imploding! And in the face of heightened economy focus- what's happening, and how can I personally contribute to hastening it? :wink:

Wouldn't that be because the 2007 xA and xB are being discontinued to make way for the '08 xB and xD? Or weren't they not doing '07 models of them?

Another best-ever month for Toyot... Wait, what!?

What the hell happened thsi month?

They still squeezed 7 best-evers in there despite the drop, lol.

Posted

Actually, everything was off in July from furniture to real estate from what I can tell.

Still, the TURD is doing poorly for a "new truck"

I see more Turds around here than GMT900s.... Of course, that's no surprise given the demographics and the notoriously high toyota numbers here.

Then again, my mom says I'm full of crap because she seems to be seeing a ton of GMT900s and not many Turds. I guess it's ll in what you notice.
