12
Toyotas fundamental mission is to contribute to peoples lifestyles, society, and the
economy through automotive manufacturing. In upholding this mission, we have
always focused on the future of the automobile industry when deciding how best to
position our company.
I sometimes hear people describing the automobile industry as mature. I dis-
agree with this view. From a global perspective, there are clearly large numbers of
people who have yet to benefit from the convenience afforded by automobiles. Such
regions as China, India, Central and Eastern Europe, and Russia are approaching an
era of full-fledged motorization. These untapped markets represent huge potential
and offer many growth opportunities for Toyota and the automobile industry.
However, we must remember that to enjoy further growth in the coming age of
global motorization, the automobile industry must first overcome a range of chal-
lenges, such as environmental preservation. As a result, the industry is entering an
era of mega-competition. The ability of companies to confront these new challenges
will ultimately determine their success or failure. I believe that the keys to winning
in this highly competitive environment are technological innovation and manage-
ment reform. In response, we are leveraging the combined strength of the Toyota
Group. Together, we will develop innovations aimed at taking the initiative in key
areas: next-generation technology; production engineering; and globalization of all
aspects of our operations from development, procurement, and production to sales
and services.
In this endeavor, Toyota will continue to adhere to its business principles of far-
sighted management and growth in harmony with the Earth and society. Moreover,
we will continue drawing on our insatiable appetite for reform to achieve steady
growth as a global company. Only then can we remain in the vanguard of worldwide
motorization.

We will accelerate the market penetration of our hybrid
technology by increasing the number of models using our origi-

install the system in one of its SUV models. We have also decided
to supply hybrid systems to Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., beginning
in 2006. No matter how outstanding a technology is, it cannot
effectively contribute to the preservation of the environment
unless it is widely used through incorporation in as many vehi-

hybrid technology as simply a steppingstone on the way to the
age of fuel cell vehicles. Instead, we see it as the core technology
that will become dominant in the eco car market and eventually
evolve to form the basis of what we call the ultimate eco car.
With both of these goals in mind, Toyota will integrate its hybrid

EUROPE During the year under review, Toyotas consolidated sales of Toyota,
Lexus, Daihatsu, and Hino vehicles in Europe were up 6.7% from the
previous year, to 776,000 units, while market share in calendar 2002 rose
to approximately 4.4% (share of the 19-nation market that comprises EU
countries, Switzerland, Norway, Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic).
Furthermore, the number of locally produced vehicles increased from
258,000 units in the previous fiscal year to 387,000 units in fiscal 2003.
Consolidated Vehicle Sales and In calendar 2002, brisk sales continued in the European market, with total

sixth consecutive year, Toyota achieved record unit sales in the region.
While the Yaris established itself as Toyotas top-selling car in Europe, the
600 new-model Corolla launched in 2002 posted strong sales. In addition, the
completely redesigned Avensis, unveiled in March 2003, has been favorably

version of the Avensis installed with our clean diesel D-CAT system. Initially,
200 Toyota set itself the task of achieving sales of 800,000 vehicles and a 5% mar-
ket share in Europe by 2005. However, by leveraging the strength of our core

Consolidated Production
In response to growing demand in Europe, we will increase our local pro-
duction capacity by introducing 24-hour operations at our plants in the
United Kingdom (TMUK) and France (TMMF). In November 2002, we
expanded production capacity at TMMF to 180,000 vehicles, and plans call
for raising capacity to 240,000 vehicles. In addition to gasoline engines, we
began diesel engine assembly at TMMF in January 2003. Meanwhile, we plan
to ramp up production capacity at TMUK from 220,000 to 270,000 vehicles
and to hire 1,000 new employees. Further, export to Japan of the new-model

Avensis built at TMUK will get under way in autumn 2003. Moreover, we
strengthened TMUKs role as our engine production center in Europe in the
year under review by commencing diesel engine assembly at the plant, which
already assembles gasoline engines. Toyota will boost combined production
capacity at its three manufacturing bases in France, the United Kingdom, and
Turkey from the current 500,000 vehicles to 610,000.
In the Czech Republic, the construction of Toyota Peugeot Citroen

engine factory in Poland in a joint venture with Toyota Industries
Corporation. Beginning in 2005, the new Polish factory will build 2.0-liter
diesel engines for our plants in the United Kingdom and Turkey.
OTHER REGIONS Consolidated vehicle sales of Toyota, Lexus, Daihatsu, and Hino vehicles in
other regions, including Asia, Oceania, and Central and South America, rose
39.0% from the previous fiscal year, to 1.14 million units. Toyota performed
strongly in mainstay markets in East and Southeast Asia, posting record
sales of 462,000 vehicles in the region. In addition, the number of locally
produced vehicles in other regions was up from 226,000 in fiscal 2002 to
418,000 units.
OCEANIA
In Australia, Toyota recorded its highest-ever vehicle sales, while in New
Zealand Toyota was the top-selling automobile brand for the 15th consecu-
tive year. As a result, our consolidated unit sales in the Oceanian market were
up from 177,000 in the previous fiscal year to 203,000 vehicles.
OTHERS
Sales in the Gulf countries were up from the previous year thanks to robust
sales of the Camry and Corolla. In South Africa, the largest market in Africa,
Toyota boasts a more-than-20% market share. And, in fiscal 2003, we main-
tained our position as the markets top-selling brand for the 23rd straight
year. In March 2003, we began exporting Corollas produced in South Africa

There are certain shortcomings inherent to the sensitivity
analyses presented. The model assumes interest rate changes
are instantaneous parallel shifts in the yield curve; however,
in reality, changes are rarely instantaneous. Although certain
assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods
to repricing, they may not react correspondingly to changes
in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain
types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate with changes in
market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of
assets may lag behind changes in market rates. Finance
receivables are less susceptible to prepayments when interest
rates change and, as a result, Toyotas model does not
address prepayment risk for automotive related finance
receivables. However, in the event of a change in interest
rates, actual loan prepayments may deviate significantly
from assumptions used in the model.

Dai Nagoya Buiding
3-28-12, Meieki, Nakamura-ku
Nagoya, 450-8565 Japan
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated
statements of income, shareholders equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Toyota Motor Corporation and its subsidiaries at March 31, 2002 and 2003,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended March 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the companys management;
our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Consolidated Financial Summary in Accordance
with Japan GAAP (Unaudited)
Toyota Motor Corporation and Consolidated Subsidiaries
Fiscal periods ended March 31, 1995 to 2003, and June 30, 1994
Notes:
1. With the exception of certain consolidated subsidiaries, fiscal 2002 vehicle sales for Europe and other regions are based on
calculations for a 15-month term, due to a shift in the end of the accounting period for our consolidated subsidiaries from
December to March. This change in the accounting period resulted in a 242,000-unit increase.
2. There are differences between Japanese GAAP and U.S. GAAP primarily related to the valuation of securities, the translation of
foreign currency financial statements, accrued compensated absences, employee retirement and severance benefits and comprehensive
income.
3. The number of shares used in computing per share amounts has been adjusted to take into account the retroactive effect of stock
splits. Net income per share is computed based on the average number of common shares and common share equivalents
outstanding during the fiscal years.
