Toyota cuts a look at the tariff fears with a decrease in profit 37 %

The Japanese auto industry said it depends on its report on the assumption that the Trump tariff for exports from Japan, including cars, will be 12.5 % starting from this month. As of now they stand by 15 %.

Top Automant in the world also manufactures vehicles in Mexico and Canada. Toyota’s total profit in the last quarter reached 841 billion yen, or 5.7 billion dollars, a decrease from 1.33 trillion yen in the same period in the previous year. Its quarterly sales increased.

At the retail level, Toyota sold 2.4 million cars worldwide, with sales growth in Japan, North America and Europe from the previous year, when the total global retail reached 2.2 million.
