Toyota began as a division of Toyoda Automatic Loom Works, directed by Kiichiro Toyoda, the founder’s son. In 1929, they sold the patent for their automatic looms to a British Company and used that money to begin developing automobiles. Originally sold under the name “Toyoda”, they released their first passenger car, the Model AA, in 1936. The name “Toyoda” literally means “fertile rice paddies”, and they wanted to avoid being associated with farming, so in 1937 they changed the company’s name to “Toyota” and registered the Toyota Motor Company.

The Toyota Motor Company originated as a division of the Toyota Loom Company, founded by Sakichi Toyoda in 1933. Toyota started with the introduction of the Model A1 passenger car in May 1934. Shortly after, Toyota produced its second model the GI truck in August 1935. With the success of these models, Toyoda’s son Kiichiro Toyoda, founded the Toyota Motor Company in 1937.
During World War II, the company contributed to Japan’s war efforts with the production of trucks for the Imperial Japanese Army. In 1947, Toyota began producing the Model SA, or the Toyapet. Thereafter, Toyota introduced passenger cars including the Toyopet Crown, the Toyopet Master and the Crown Deluxe. The first shipment of the Crown arrived in the United States in 1955. With the addition of the American market in the 1960’s, Toyota introduced several more models and reported over 1 million units in annual domestic sales.
Toyota Motor Company and Toyota Auto Sales merged in 1982, becoming Toyota Motor Corporation. In 1984, New United Motor Manufacturing Inc. was created via a joint venture of Toyota with General Motors, allowing for production in the United States.

In 1997, Toyota introduced the world’s first mass-produced electric car, the Toyota Prius. The Prius has become the best selling hybrid in the world.
