Describe Attractive Styling?

Isnt this trait based on each individual and NOT a FACT… basically you cannot say something is beautiful and call it a fact. It’ll never be 100% acceptance as BEAUTY is not a fact but an opinion. In contrary, yes in some instances a majority of people will have the same opinion that something is beautiful but it’ll never be taken as “fact”.

Fact in here is that the market share is down significantly, Toyota had a record profit last year, so this year’s projection is compared to last year and the massive difference can easily be explained using sales between the year.

Second, It is KNOWN fact that Toyota has been expanding tremendously the last 7 years and yes quality has taken a dip but not enough to call them “bad” cars. If some here can actually read japanese news, Toyota has acknowledged this issue and its one of the main concerns for them. Toyoda-san (the next president) has also addressed “excitement and quality” as main issues when he takes over. He knows that profit and concervativeness has dominated Toyota’s goals recently.

Bottomline though, this economic crunch is hurting everyone and it shows that even an efficient manufacturer as Toyota is greatly affected.

If it annoys me (a toyota driver) I can’t imagine what others might think.

In your world there would only be one car maker; no possibility of variety, fun, or attractive styling.

Year-to-date, Toyota leads the market with 44,309 vehicles sold, followed by Holden with 26,979 and Ford with 20,986 vehicles.

A comprehensive survey by New York-based private research and consulting firm Reputation Institute took stock of over 1,000 companies’ brand images, evaluating respondents’ perceptions of trust, esteem, admiration and good feeling to determine the final result. Ranking as the only automobile manufacturer with a score of more than 80 – placing it in the top tier of all manufacturers – Toyota also finished first in five of seven categories overall, earning it the title of World’s Most Respected company.

The product is the driving force, though volume sales pose risks
Strong consumer perceptions of quality and value along with safety and reliability put the Toyota brand at the top of the charts. The way the company stands behind its products also influenced the results, showing that not only consumers, but the company itself, has confidence in the cars produced.op automotive brand in Australia, and not just in sales
According to a survey by Australian Reader’s Digest, Toyota ranks as the most trusted brand in Australia as well. That trust is given ample evidence by the actions of the Australian buying public.

The strong June market, and the record first six months of 2008, saw Toyota set several records for overall sales volume, putting it over 11 market share points ahead of closest rival, Holden. Total vehicle sales in June cleared 25,000 for the first time ever for any vehicle manufacturer in Australia’s history. Toyota also set a fiscal year record, selling over 247,500 vehicles, the first time any carmaker has broken the 200,000 mark.

It’s clear that on the raw numbers alone, Australians have been voting Toyota the number one brand in Australia for quite some time.

Increased competition from Korean as well as Japanese and U.S. automakers really sliced up the midsize car pie in the last decade, but Camry continues to set the pace.
