The charts illustrate the revenue generated by three car manufacturers, namely Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai, between 2015 and 2019, and the breakdown of car sales by vehicle segment.
Overall, while Toyota’s revenue showed a consistent upward trend over the period, Hyundai’s followed the opposite pattern, and Honda’s fluctuated without a clear direction. In terms of vehicle segments, MPVs accounted for the largest share of sales, whereas sedans made up only a negligible share.
Looking at the line chart in more detail, Hyundai generated the highest revenue among the three automakers in 2015, at approximately $3.4 billion, but this figure declined steadily thereafter, dropping to around $1.9 billion in 2017 before edging up slightly to about $2.3 billion by 2019. Toyota’s revenue, by contrast, started at the lowest point of the three brands, at just under $1 billion in 2015, and climbed steadily throughout the period to reach a peak of roughly $2.9 billion in 2019, thereby overtaking both of its competitors. Honda’s revenue rose from $1.8 billion in 2015 to a high of $2.6 billion in 2017, after which it fell back to around $1.7 billion by the end of the period, the lowest figure among the three brands that year.
Regarding car types, MPVs and SUVs were the two most popular segments, constituting 35% and 27% of total sales respectively, followed by sportscars at 25%. Hatchback city cars accounted for a much smaller proportion, at 10%, while sedans represented the smallest share by a considerable margin, at just 3% of overall sales.
