Toyota PH Output to Slip Below 2025 Record
Toyota Motor Philippines expects local vehicle production to fall to about 60,000 units this year from a record 63,803 in 2025, as weak demand and high fuel prices weigh on the market. Electrified vehicle sales more than doubled in the first seven months even as the wider industry struggled.
