PLANO, Texas, April 3, 2017 -- Toyota Motor North America (TMNA) Inc., today reported its U.S. March 2017 sales of 215,224 units, a decrease of 2.1 percent from March 2016 on a volume basis. With the same number of selling days in March 2017 compared to March 2016, sales were down 2.1 percent on a daily selling rate (DSR) basis. 

Toyota division posted March 2017 sales of 187,289 units, down 1.2 percent on a volume and DSR basis.   

"The industry might see its first dip below a 17 million SAAR since June 2016, although it will likely be nearly flat to last March," said Jack Hollis, group vice president and general manager, Toyota division. "The Toyota division set a new light truck record for the month and quarter as we saw SUV sales sizzle with a best ever March for RAV4, Highlander, and 4Runner, all up double digits."

Lexus posted sales of 27,935 units, down 7.5 percent on a volume and DSR basis. 

"In March, luxury utility vehicles continued to move off dealer lots," said Jeff Bracken, Lexus group vice president and general manager. "NX posted sales up 24 percent, and GX rose by 31 percent as our dealers met customer's needs with better inventory during our Command Performance Sales Event."

  • Corolla records sales of over 30,000 units
