We've been waiting for Toyota to release sales data for 2023 ever since the Volkswagen Group announced it sold 9.24 million cars. The numbers are in, and as expected, the Japanese juggernaut managed to comfortably beat its German rival with a record-breaking 11,233,039 vehicles shipped last year. That's an increase of 7.2 percent year-over-year, which makes Toyota the best-selling automaker for the fourth year in a row.
