History

Historical Context

In October 1957 Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A. was created, launching the Toyopet Crown in the United States the following summer. By year-end 1958 Toyota had sold 287 Crown sedans, establishing a foothold that later grew into a dominant North American presence. Geely Auto’s 2027 Canadian entry, partnering with local distributor Bryan Wu, follows the same early-network strategy pioneered by Toyota.
