Year after year, the Toyota Camry remains a popular car, selling 600,000 units annually across the globe. Half of those sales originate in the US, where it continues to put up consistent numbers despite a shrinking midsize market. In Japan, Toyota struggles to move even one percent of the Camry's global volume, which is why the automaker notified Japanese dealers it is ending production.
Like in the US, Japanese buyers have shifted away from sedans to SUVs and crossovers, which have become increasingly popular. For this reason, the Toyota Camry will join the Honda Legend and Nissan Fuga, discontinued in the Japanese domestic market last year due to low sales. However, the Camry will continue to live on in the global market, where it sells in over 100 countries and remains very popular.
