TOKYO -- Toyota Motor Corp. has raised its earnings forecast after reporting that its profit surged 28 per cent in the last quarter on growing sales and cost cuts.
The top Japanese automaker said Tuesday that its July-September profit was 585.1 billion yen ($5.2 billion), up from 458.3 billion yen the year before.
Quarterly sales rose 2 per cent to 7.31 trillion yen ($64.7 billion).
The manufacturer of the Camry sedan, Prius hybrid and Corolla subcompact forecast a 2.3 trillion yen ($20 billion) profit for the fiscal year through March.
