JAKARTA - The world's largest automaker, Toyota, managed to reach a global annual production record in the fiscal year ending in March 2023 with a total production of 9.13 million vehicles.
Despite successfully passing the production target of 9.1 million vehicles, Toyota faces challenges in production due to the ongoing chip shortage, Autonews reported on Thursday, April 27.
The worldwide shortage of chips forced Toyota to lower production targets from the initial 9.7 million vehicles to 9.1 million vehicles. However, Toyota managed to produce more vehicles than the set target even though the number was only small.
The biggest challenge Toyota is the impact of a chip shortage that has been going on for a long time. This makes it difficult for Toyota to predict its future influence. Toyota also stated that they will continue to see the impact of the global chip shortage.
Despite being affected by a chip shortage, Toyota is still able to maintain its position as the world's largest automaker by sales. Toyota managed to record global sales with a total sales of 9.61 million vehicles over the 12 months ended in March 2023, up from 9.51 million vehicles in the previous year.
