TOYOTA SECURES ADDITIONAL PRODUCTION FOR AUSTRALIA AND INCREASES 2026 FORECAST

The additional allocation lifts Toyota Australia’s full-year sales forecast to 220,000 vehicles, underscoring continued customer confidence in the brand and its broad portfolio. Toyota remains the only brand to sell in excess of 200,000 vehicles in Australia in a single year.

The production uplift spans several of Toyota’s most in-demand models, including:

• RAV4: Australia’s best-selling SUV in 2025
• HiLux: Toyota’s number 1 selling vehicle in Australia year-to-date
• bZ4X: Toyota’s first all-electric model in Australia

Toyota Australia Vice President Sales, Marketing and Franchise Operations John Pappas said the additional allocation represents an important prioritisation of Australian customers.

“Toyota has been part of Australian communities for almost seventy years, and we continue to see strong demand from customers who rely on us for their mobility needs.

“This increase in supply is great news for our customers and dealers. It reflects the strong partnership we have with Toyota globally to prioritise the Australian market.

“Vehicles like HiLux remain essential for many Australians, while RAV4 continues to lead the SUV segment thanks to its versatility, drivability and efficiency.

“We will continue working closely with our global production teams to secure additional supply where possible and ensure we are meeting the needs of Australian customers today and into the future.”
