In response to the market needs, we have recently reopened bookings for the Land Cruiser 300. Additionally, we introduced the new GR-S grade under the GR Sport branding, featuring an off-road-tuned suspension, differential locks, and enhanced shock absorbers to ensure superior performance in extreme conditions. The market response has been positive, and we are humbled by the enthusiasm.

Meanwhile, models from the small car segmentlike Taisor and Glanza are playing a significantly role by contributing to 28% of the month’s sales.
