When you think about the models within the new Toyota lineup, what's the first one that comes to mind? Perhaps you immediately think of the Toyota Camry? This wouldn't be too surprising considering it has been the top-selling car in America for the last 11 years. In fact, Toyota just celebrated a major sales milestone for the Camry as the 10 millionth vehicle was sold!
Looking at the history of the model, the first generation was unveiled within the United States back in 1983. Even during its first year on the market, 52,651 vehicles were sold. What's even more impressive is that 30 years later, 773 of these models are still fully operational. This is a testament to that fact that each and every Toyota model is built with exceptional quality.
As of now, there are an estimated 6.4 million vehicles out on the roads in the greater Redding, CA area and beyond. The popular mid-sized sedan actually represents almost 20 percent of the total vehicles sold by Toyota in the U.S., with every one in five sold being a Camry.
Bob Carter, senior vice president of automotive operations for Toyota Motor Sales, USA, explains the importance of this achievement, stating, "With the support of so many loyal customers, Camry has truly become part of the country's fiber. For seven generations, Toyota dealers have also been instrumental in getting Americans behind the wheel of a Camry. Camry is definitely helping Toyota Go Places."1
