Toyota's reported carbon emissions
Toyota Motor Corporation (JP), a leader in the motor vehicles industry, has set ambitious climate commitments. For 2025, the company reported total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of approximately 513.98 billion kg CO2e. This figure comprises about 2.47 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, and approximately 2.06 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based). Scope 3 emissions were substantial, amounting to about 509.46 billion kg CO2e, with the largest contribution coming from the use of sold products (approximately 368.26 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (about 115.46 billion kg CO2e).
Toyota has committed to significant GHG emission reductions. Its Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) targets, validated by the SBTi, aim for an absolute reduction of 68% in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2035, using 2019 as a baseline year. Furthermore, Toyota aims for carbon neutrality across all global plants by 2035. The company also has a long-term goal to achieve carbon neutrality for all GHG emissions from its corporate activities by 2050. In addition, Toyota has set a target to reduce GHG emissions throughout the entire life cycle of its new vehicles by 30% by 2030, compared to 2019 levels.
Toyota's commitment to sustainability extends to its production processes, with a goal to achieve carbon neutrality in CO2 emissions from production at plants by 2035. This includes targets for reducing emissions from Scope 1 and Scope 2 operations. The company's SBTi-validated targets also address Scope 3 emissions, aiming for a 33.3% reduction per vehicle kilometre in emissions from the use of sold passenger light duty vehicles and light commercial vehicles by 2030, from a 2019 baseline. For medium and heavy freight trucks, the target is an 11.6% reduction per vehicle kilometre by 2030.
