Lexus UX300e is exhibited by Toyota Motor Corporation at China International Import Expo in Shanghai, China on November 6, 2020. In line with the announcement of the interim financial results, Toyota Motor has revised upward the business outlook for the entire group for the current fiscal year, raising the final profit from 730 billion yen (about $7020 million) to 1.42 trillion yen (about $13.6 billion). The main reason is that car sales, which had fallen due to the effects of the new coronavirus COVID-19, have improved as economic activity resumed. ( The Yomiuri Shimbun via AP Images )
