Toyota said Thursday its domestic sales declined for the second straight month in February, hit by a slew of data-rigging scandals among its group companies Daihatsu Motor and Toyota Industries.

The number of cars Toyota sold in Japan dropped 33.3% from a year earlier to 103,946 units, while domestic output slumped by 12.9%, also affected by the temporary suspension of its factories due to heavy snow, the world's largest automaker said.
