We expect 2025 to be a strong year for us in India: Toyota
AT a time when most automakers are grappling with sluggish demand, Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) is achieving impressive double-digit sales growth each month. This success is driven by its strong SUV portfolio and the strategic partnership between its parent company, Toyota Motor Corporation, and Suzuki Motor Corporation. The Japanese automaker is set to surpass the 3 lakh annual sales milestone in the financial year 2025 and expects this robust growth to continue into the next fiscal year. Unlike other carmakers focusing heavily on electrification, TKM has adopted a unique strategy by offering a broader range of green powertrain options, emphasizing its ultimate goal of reducing carbon emissions. In an interaction with TNIE's Arshad Khan, Vikram Gulati - Country Head of TKM and Sabari Manohar - Vice President of Sales at TKM discuss Toyota's growth in India, their approach towards different powertrains and investments by the company.
