While this marked the sixth consecutive month of production decline, it was the smallest drop in that period, supported by solid domestic output. Toyota's domestic production saw a modest 0.1% increase to 309,118 vehicles, following a significant 18.8% drop in June.


The automaker resumed manufacturing the Prius in mid-June after suspending production in April due to a recall, compensating for halted production of other models amid a vehicle certification scandal.



However, overseas production fell 1.0% to 495,492 vehicles, with robust production in North America and Europe offset by a 9.6% drop in China.
