Closest to Toyota is Volkswagen, the largest car brand in the world. It earns $8,073 every second. Both Toyota and Volkswagen AG have a commanding lead over third-place holder Daimler AG, parent of Mercedes-Benz, which earns $5,589 per second.
Among the top ten earning automakers, Nissan lies at last position, but it too earns $2,882 every second, which is mind-boggling enough.
A report by USwitch reveals that Volkswagen's per minute, hour, and yearly incomes are $484,399, $29.1 million and $255 billion respectively. Daimler AG on the other hand earns $355,363 every minute and $20.1 million every hour. Its yearly earning is $176 billion.
The fourth to ninth positions are held by brands such as Honda, Mitsubishi, Ford, General Motors, BMW and Stellantis respectively. Interestingly, despite being one of the largest automakers in the world, Suzuki has no place in the top ten. The frequent headline maker Tesla too is not in the top ten list. Also, no Indian automakers are among the top ten earning automobile brands, as the report suggests.
