■2025 TCV Annual Sales and Export Destination Rankings
The 2025 annual sales and export destination ranking on TCV is as follows.

The best-selling model on TCV was the Toyota Vitz, maintaining its top position from the previous year. As for export destinations, shipments to East African countries—where demand for automobiles remains strong due to economic growth—showed overall steady performance.
Looking back at the market environment in 2025, the persistently weak yen contributed to stronger price competitiveness for used vehicles from Japan. Looking ahead to 2026, amid expectations that further policy adjustments by the Bank of Japan may lead to a correction of the weak yen (a shift toward yen appreciation), it will be important to closely monitor the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the export business.

TCV will continue to regularly share sales rankings and the latest trends in the global used car market, supporting the business activities of exporters.
