Toyota Kirloskar Motor registered total sales of 15,201 units in Aug 2013 when compared to 16,225 Units in Aug 2012. Sales declined by 6%. The company exported 3,194 units of the Etios series last month. The company sold 12,007 units in the domestic market in August 2013 as compared to 13,995 units in August 2012.

Commenting on the sales in August 2013, Mr. Sandeep Singh, Deputy Managing Director and Chief Operating Officer, Marketing and Commercial said “With the rupee depreciation and rising inflation we have increased the prices of Camry Petrol and Fortuner. The prices have been increased by 1%.

Last month we launched the Camry Hybrid, this is in line with offering advanced technology to our customers and encouraging the use of hybrid in India thereby contributing to a greener tomorrow.

The market is still sluggish, however we hope to see the market improve with good monsoons and the upcoming festive season."
