It looks like the automotive industry is slowly taking baby steps towards normalcy. Toyota announced that it had sold 3866 units in June 2020, thereby more than doubling its wholesales when compared to May 2020. The company had sold 1639 units in May 2020. In the same month last year however, Toyota had sold 10,603 units in the domestic market and had exported 804 units overseas. With the gradual unlock being announced in May 2020 in several parts of the country, the company restarted its factory operations in Bidadi and subsequently started catering to the pending customer orders that had accumulated over the past few months.

In the month of June 2020, Toyota along with its dealer partners has been able to keep the retail momentum growing for a second month in a row, hence resulting in a 50 per cent reduction in its inventory cost at dealerships as compared to an year ago.
