It was started by a productive inventor, Sakichi Toyoda, born on the fourteenth day of February 1867. Toyoda grew up as the son of a poor carpenter, but is considered the “King of Japanese Inventors”. It is believed also that he is the father of the Japanese industrial revolution. With his revolutionary invention of the automatic loom, Toyoda, used the money obtained to create the Toyota Motor Company. A huge factor that contributed to the birth of this company was the support of the Japanese government during the war in Manchuria. The first engine was developed in 1934 and the first car and truck were built the following year. After the war, in 1945, Toyota began rapid expansion after authorization by the United States Army. to start production in peacetime. Initially the Japanese company's main focus was the production of trucks. The Toyopet, "Toyota's first truly popular automobile", was built in 1947. Over the next five years the company only built. two hundred and fifteen cars of this model. In 1955, 8,400 cars were produced per year, a decade later the company increased to 600,000 cars per year. The company's internationalization began in 1958, when Toyota began marketing automobiles in the United States. The first two vehicles imported into the United States were the Toyopet and the Land Cruiser. Even though the Land Cruiser had better margins, Toyopet laid out the strategy of a modified car specifically for the American market. We know these models very well even today; they are the Avalon and the Camry. Brazil was the first country in which Toyota built a production plant outside its national borders; this happened in the year 1959. A very important philosophy followed by the company was to localize both the production and design of its vehicles. This philosophy has developed long-term relationships with local suppliers and labor considering the adaptation of the products to the location of use, in addition to the fact that the production is also there. This action resulted in the implementation of research and development and design facilities in North America and Europe. The first truly Americanized Toyota was the Tiara, also known as the Toyota Corona PT20. This vehicle was launched on the market in 1964. The car could carry up to 6 people and had around ninety horsepower under the hood..
