Toyota is known across the globe for building affordable and reliable vehicles, so it’s no surprise it is the most Googled car brand in the world. The average car shopper is likely to find what they are looking for with a Toyota vehicle, so it’s also no surprise Toyota has taken the number one spot for global sales as well.
