Of the loom to the largest car manufacturer in the world - the roots of the Toyota Group date back to the 19th century. One of the most important models: the Toyota Land Cruiser. On his 60th birthday, we would like to show its history and illuminate the history of the company.
In Toyota's range of more than 200 classes, who built the Japanese in their history, there are some models that have special importance for the world's largest car manufacturers.
Today is world market leader Toyota, has 63 works and employs more than 316,000 people. 2010 Toyota produced more than 8.4 million vehicles according to their statements. The most important in Germany available models include the all-terrain vehicle Toyota Land Cruiser and RAV4. The Pick-Up Toyota Hilux is particularly popular with artisans.
In 2009, Toyota sold worldwide 52 series (including Lexus) and is one of the manufacturers with the most bandwidth. Long underestimated the Japanese manufacturer, but by the ongoing optimization of production processes, the expansion of the lineup and its adaptation to the respective markets Toyota to the largest vehicle manufacturer and brand Toyota was one of the most valuable in the world.
In the first place is the Toyota Corolla. With more than 24 million copies built in Japan, he is the most-built Toyota well. It is the golf under the Japanese cars. Especially in the second-largest market, the United States, the Toyota Camry is the absatztstarkste model. in 2001, the mid-size sedan in the U.S. market reached the five million mark. Camry models are built in two US plants, and the available body styles are most diverse in North America with sedan, Coupe and convertible. Even with Hybridantieb, the Camry is here available. By 2005, more than ten million Toyota Camry were sold.
A special role in the history of Toyota's plays the supra from the third generation, with the technical expertise should be shown. The first two generation based on the Toyota Celica and differed visually while, technically, they had to offer, however, hardly something new. This changed in 1986, when the supra as genuine own series was introduced. Toyota wanted to drop some of its conservative image with the sports car. In addition to the mass cars which were otherwise but largely unemotional, reliably fulfilled its purpose, the supra should set a sustainable counterpoint. Within the meaning of "We can also otherwise". Long time the project was not appreciated however - 1996 was concluded with supra, at least in Europe. In Japan, the athlete was built until 2002.
And what came in 1997, was really different. Toyota dare Prius is the hybrid something what some other manufacturers Toronto. But the Prius (and other Toyota Estima Hybrid, hybrid models Crown mild hybrid, hybrid coaster) became the best-selling model. After five years there were only 100,000 copies sold, but offered as the hybrid car also in other markets was, fell the next important production brand: 2005 500,000 hybrid vehicles are constructed 2007 more than a million.
The Land Cruiser is the dinosaur under the Toyota models. It is built since 1951 and still rolled more than six million copies of all-terrain vehicle legend of the bands in Asia, Africa, South America. He is the most-built sport utility vehicles with permanent all-wheel drive. The most-built pickup also comes from Toyota – there are the Toyota Hilux for more than 40 years (1967).
