Totally agree! I bought a 2023 Mazda for under MSRP by $10,000 (it had 3000 miles on it). My other option, a 2023 Toyota RAV4 was for $1000 over MSRP. This was in January. Now Toyota is offering me a 2024 Toyota RAV4 at MSRP in the mail, not aware I bought from another brand. Sorry Toyota, I am done with you - other brands I buy work about as well (my 2013 Subaru Legacy is now up to 145,000 with only the suspension being replaced, which happens to all my cars including Toyotas because the roads are terrible here).

Their new Camry will easily beat any other sedan, and the new Prius is so markedly improved you can think of it as a new product. Their huge lineup of hybrids (about half their models are hybridized) is the right product for 2024 and 2025. People wrote them off as a doomed firm, but they will win big in the short term.

Strange because U.S. sales aren't suffering for Toyota.

I just have never understood those people that get a new car every few years. I keep them at least until they are 10 y/o and paid off of course. Where does all this money come from? I’m by no means poor, so it amazes me how many people go through buying or leasing a new car all the time. Leasing is the only way I see it happening with LLC write offs. The huge down payment for leasing and basically committing to monthly payments for eternity don’t seem worth it, but to those that like a new car, I guess it’s worth it. Not for me. I like taking a break from payments and saving cash every few years. I have a 2003 Suburban and a 2019 Mx-5, both bought used with low miles.

The problem with Toyota is their only selling point is quality. Otherwise Toyota is trying to give you as little as possible. The big problem is North American management, they decided to go the way of Stalantis. In terms of materials, features, colors Toyota is literally at the end of the Japanese pack. Example: Toyota gives you electric seats but memory buttons are in the next higher trim (which another 5k Canadian$). I think people resent being taking an advantage like this! How much actual memory button will cost for Toyota ? Like 5 bucks. The big problem is North American management, they decided to go the way of Stalantis.

On top of that, China provides huge EV subsidies and Toyota isn't good at making them. What would scare me to death if I were Toyota is if BYD buys Nissan. I can see Japan's super dense cities fall in love with non-polluting EVs and if BYD uses Nissan as an entry way to flood Japan with low cost EVs, Toyota could have a hard time on its home court.

There’s a lot of conspiracies coming from Japan hating Asian countries that try to spread rumors of what the Japanese teach in schools. I mean, Japan was the first major adopter of EVs 15yrs ago and as far back as 10yrs ago, Japan was in the top three countries of highest percentage of EVs on roads. If any company knows what the Japanese want, it’ll be the Japanese, and if the Japanese aren’t pushing EVs anymore, then I don’t see how BYD and others like Hyundai and Tesla can push EVs on the Japanese. The Japanese government is all for choice so they’re laid back in pushing EVs. But having said that, all Toyota, Nissan, and Honda have set goals to become electrified (some fully electrified and others partially electrified) by a certain date, so the Japs are working on par with the slow demand and infrastructure. This makes a lot more sense than the imports trying to do a hostile takeover of the Japanese auto market. I should mention, Nissan and Mitsubishi both offer the cheapest EVs in the entire Japanese market. Not even the Chinese BYD could undercut the Japanese prices, so they’re quite fine as they are. Also you mentioned investment in hydrogen as a bad thing, but like you said how the ratio of EVs and ice could change quickly, so could hydrogen technology if there’s a breakthrough. A huge reserve much bigger than the oil reserve was found containing pure hydrogen. Hydrogen is also already decided by most major truck manufacturers in the world like Daimler and Volvo as the standard to be used for heavy duty trucks instead of BEVs. So I wouldn’t crap on hydrogen technology. The Japanese are actually ahead in that they have EV technology and hydrogen technology instead of everyone else betting on EVs.

Hence why, for toyota atleast, their drop in april was barely 1%. Thats what u call a blip.

Bravo!!! Protest with your wallets people! You think I like driving my 2017 Prius for 6 years? Heck no! Especially being a car fanatic. Before my Prius, the most I kept a car was 3.5 years. With today’s prices, I will probably keep driving my Prius for another 2 to 3 years.

New Tacoma is already the number one selling mid size truck in it's segment and it's new turbo I4/turbo I4 hybrid are bloody impressive engines thats already in other Lexus/Toyota products. Tundra has recalls sure but stop acting like it's the only engine from Toyota had recalls. Infact even some V8 engines had massive issues. So Posting hypocritical rants

Lexus sales are up by 11.8 percent globally and not down. Just telling you. if you thought it was down 54 percent because that's daihatsu actually down. Es is about to get a all new gen and current one is still selling very well. Lc500 is type of a car were it doesn't need too many updates and Ls is outselling the G90 by a huge margain to point were. G90 only sold 80 cars or something.

Stop listening to the old guy next door telling you to get a Toyota, nothing cheap and reliable these days, those people live in the past, 20-30 years ago lol

I think u guys should REAALLLY listen to what our man here has to say about why toyota is blipping globally. Yeah, its only a blip. 0.5% drop in sales, but 4% drop in prod. It really is a combo of issues, mostly related production: -logistic issues in mexico -safety scandal issues (affecting production) with daihatsu in japan n asia pacific as a whole. Rmmbr, daihatsu basically provide toyota with their keicars in japan. -n then, ofcourse sales in issue in china, but most automakers are suffering that overall in china. The bit about toyota is only the first 3minutes or so. So do listen before u guys give ur anecdotal predicaments. Ie: Whats happening in florida has nothing to do with whats happening in japan or thailand (major toyota hub), keep that in mind😅. Coz when we talk about “global” toyota, it really does mean global, coz almost 80% of toyota’s sales n production happens outside north america.

So is China actually the largest market or is this like when China had the largest opening movie the year Avengers came out that we all know was a straight lie lol.

Lexus is down probably because consumers are tired of revised 8 year old sedans over and over.

Lexus sales are up by 11.8 percent globally and it's actually daihatsu down 54 percent not Lexus. KRIK made the mistake at this point of the video @3.31.

Toyota used to be great but these new trucks they are producing (a ton of engine issues) are just no where as good as their previous generations. They are way overpriced and quality is just not the same.

surprised that the gx and land cruiser have quality issues already? given they r made in japan. perhaps they need to source better quality parts. idk but also their pricing is ridiculously high for what it is. i dont mind a car that isnt tech heavy but when u look at the competition, its tough! im looking to get a new car. really would like a toyota after having a hyundai. but they got some things to work out.

This is non-news made worse by the title and thumbnail.

Lexus is suffering due to cars that are increasingly similar to Toyota. The LBX doesn't look much different from the Yaris Cross. The TX looks too similar to the Grand Highlander. The ES is old. The RX styling is frumpy. The NX is great. The RC is uncompetitive. The LC/LS are ancient.

@@ag4eng look bro so just because you had a bad experience with ultra Rare case Overall don't mean anything .

People are keeping their vehicles longer as a consequence of recent price increases on all products, not just cars. Also, the auto industry burned a lot of bridges thanks to unjustifiable price hikes and dealer markups. Finally, quality issues also seem to be on the rise. Put it all together and it's not going to be a good time for vehicle sales.

Toyota’s sales 📈📉📈📉

New car sales are slow for everyone in NA. High interest rates, high prices, and people are keeping their cars longer, on average now 12.3 yrs. Funny when Tesla was reported as having slow sales, many dumped all over them explaining nobody wants an EV and all the other nonsense. Now it's reported that Toyota has slow sales and the fan boys are quiet...hmmmm

In my humble opinion Toyota has price itself out of the US market. A couple months of data doesn't prove it but it starts to fit a pattern. Honestly, I don't really like Toyota since they basically make anything and everything and suffocate the market so I hope they drop a peg or two to make ways for Honda and Mazda, among others.

Toyota stopping sales for quality issues wowzers lol

Turbos going to be Toyota’s downfall, Toyota is an average company when it comes to technology, driving dynamics and luxury compared to the competition. Their biggest strength was reliability, they’re messing with that for carbon foot print crap.
