Toyota Motor Corporation designs and sells cars, trucks, and SUVs to everyday consumers and businesses around the world. Its most well-known models include the Camry, Corolla, RAV4, and Tacoma, and it also owns the Lexus luxury brand. Toyota is one of the largest automakers on the planet by vehicle sales volume.

Toyota makes most of its money by selling vehicles directly through dealerships, and it also earns revenue from its financial services arm, which offers auto loans and leases to customers. The company operates manufacturing plants across Japan, North America, Asia, and Europe, generating hundreds of billions of dollars in annual revenue. Toyota's biggest competitive advantage is its reputation for reliability and its efficient production system, but its main risk is navigating the costly shift toward electric vehicles, where it has moved more slowly than rivals like Tesla and is now under pressure to catch up.
