Toyota aims to break GM global-sales record in 2009

TOKYO — Toyota plans to sell 10.4 million vehicles globally in 2009, it said Friday, a sales target that would put the Japanese automaker ahead of a record set by world leader General Motors 30 years ago, according to USA Today.

Analysts say Toyota Motor (TM) is likely on track to beat General Motors (GM) as the world's biggest automaker in global vehicle sales and production this year — a title Detroit-based GM has held for 76 years.
