The company domestic sales grew by 19% in the first half of the year as compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The sales grew with the launch of the New Innova, New Fortuner, and the recently launched Camry and Camry Hybrid along with all the other products Etios series and Corolla have also registered growth in the first half of the year.

The Fortuner continues to lead with 18% growth in the first half of the year when compared to the same period in 2014. With 113 units sold last month, the New Camry has already sold more than 300 units, within two months of the launch, as compared to 720 units sold in the whole of 2014.

With the new Toyota Innova approaching its India launch, we expect the car maker to deliver better numbers in the coming days. Do you agree?
