What is the home country of Toyota?

Answer 1

Toyota Motor Corp is a Japanese company. It still has its headquarters in Aichi, Japan, but much like Sony and others, it has holding companies in most major territories in the world.

For example, Toyota Motor North America is a separate American registered company that technically owns a load of smaller Toyota named companies called divisions that each administer a separate facet of the business, showrooms and liquid American assets etc. for Toyota Japan. Toyota Motor Sales USA handles marketing and showrooms, Toyota Financial Services handles car loans and credit, various Factories go under the moniker Toyota Motor Manufacturing (insert state here).

The ins and outs are deep and complex but it allows them a tax and logistics advantage and protects the main Toyota company from falling on a whole if any particular country has serious problems (as it can sell the assets and close operations much more quickly if everything is already divided beforehand).
