Toyota Motor Corp. outsold all automakers for the fifth straight quarter as the yen's depreciation sharpens its edge over General Motors and Volkswagen.

Worldwide sales for Toyota, including those of subsidiaries Hino Motors Ltd. and Daihatsu Motor Co., reached 2.43 million vehicles in the January-March period, spokeswoman Shino Yamada said Wednesday.

That compares with GM's 2.36 million and VW's 2.27 million.
