TORRANCE, Calif., May 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Toyota Motor Sales
(TMS), U.S.A., Inc., today
reported April 2013 sales results of
176,160 units, a decrease of 5 percent on a daily selling rate
(DSR) basis compared to the same period last year. Unadjusted for
25 selling days in April 2013 versus
24 in April 2012, TMS sales were down
1.1 percent over the year-ago month.
Toyota Division posted April total sales of 158,069 units, down
5.4 percent year-over-year on a DSR basis. Volume-wise,
Toyota Division sales decreased 1.5 percent over April
2012.
"From an industry standpoint, continued retail sales growth
indicates the underlying strength of the market, which is a great
sign for the months ahead, especially with new products, low
interest rates and plenty of pent up demand," said Bill Fay, group vice president and general
manager of Toyota Division. "Toyota's two newest models –
Avalon and RAV4 – continued to attract customers with double digit
gains in April."
Lexus reported April total sales of 18,091 units, down 1.0
percent on a DSR basis and up 3.1 percent by raw volume compared to
the same period last year.
"With strong sales of our recently introduced LS and ES sedans,
Lexus' April sales were 3 percent higher than last year's," said
Jeff Bracken, Lexus group vice
president and general manager. "We also celebrated Earth Month by
selling 3,145 of our five luxury hybrid models, which accounted for
17 percent of our monthly sales. Lexus now sells two out of every
three luxury hybrids, making Lexus the clear luxury hybrid
leader."
