Every year, Forbes publishes a list of the world’s most valuable brands, and this year is no exception. From tech giants to pharmaceutical companies and many more, what is really of interest to us is where the car companies stand for the 2016 edition.
The first five spots are occupied by non-car brands most of you are already familiar with – Apple, Google, Microsoft, Coca-Cola and Facebook. Interestingly, Toyota has managed to take the sixth spot, making it the world’s most valuable car brand this year.
Moving further down the list, BMW sits comfortably in the fourteenth position, followed by Mercedes-Benz (#20), Honda (#23), Ford (#35), Audi (#36), Chevrolet (#59), Lexus (#63), Porsche (#67), Nissan (#70), Hyundai (#71), and Volkswagen (#77). In total, a dozen carmakers made it onto the top hundred list.
So there you have it, Toyota tops the list as the world’s most valuable car brand. For next year’s edition of Forbes’ list, what car brands do you think will be able to make it into the top hundred?
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Mana Proton? Teaser after teaser after spyshot, still end up nowhere.
Proton is better than Toyota lah. Since our Ministers already said Proton is Better than BMW and Volvo, it is understood that Proton will be far superior than Toyota.
Anyway all car companies are envious of Proton cause Proton is the only car company in the world that can sapu RM1.5 bil every other year and RM15 bil the pst 20 yrs.
The other car companies want to learn Proton’s secret.
Fully agreed. Spending all that billions to produce re-badged cars. I am hoping for the day they re-badge Jaguars out Bentleys so all suffering rakyat can drive one!
Proton is world’s most valuable car brand….lah!!! Everytime want to go bankrupt can get gomen support. Isn’t that more valuable…???
Ford, once in this their government also support the company. Go bash ford also la…..ops….kereta luar negara….what they do, semua ok. Toya!!!!!……
Seriously, looking at the higher range of the mid-size sedan to MPV across the world, starting Corolla, Camry, Wish, Estima, Alphard and Vellfire, Toyota almost monopolize the car market. Also from commercial can, trucks, pick-ups and 4×4 and don’t forget the luxurious branding Lexus.
Their hands is touching everywhere in the automobile industry. I second “Toyota is world’s most valuable car brand”. Congrates.
Hunda’s rv much better in bolehland..
If I remember correctly, there was a list previously, also top 100, in which Ferrari is the highest among all the car brands.
So now the World has changed, suddenly Toyota becomes the most desirable car brand in the world.
## Toyota Avalon at rm102k, vs entry-level Ferrari at rm120k, you do your pick.
All brainwashed by the attractive advertisements and ‘Power of Dreams’ shit taglines and roadshows.
Thats why LOL.
Wait Until kena the useless aftermarket sales and service part of owning Hondas. Vehicles with Poor built quality, Shitty authorized Honda Branded service centres especially in KL and Selangor area. Dont believe me, check Honda Malaysia FB. They even delete customers complaints. Stuck up AF management unlike Honda Japan and Honda Singapore.
Poor Proton, the company, the brand and its cars got no resale value. Hahaha
U forgot. Toyota is oso listed as most dangerous car brand. Cuz of their inadequate safety spec and even when they include it, it can kill pipu. This on top of toyotas r designed to bring their occupants to early afterlife.
do not just simply say without any supporting references. Or you just want to curse?
To all the Toyota bashers this is proof of your ignorance to the most supreme car brand in the world for many years running. Do not be fooled by crap from Honda as you can see they are so far down in the list compared to Toyota.
Toyota will and forever make the best cars in terms of luxury(Lexus), comfort(Camry), safety(All Toyota vehicles), efficiency(Prius), handling(86) and power(LFA), toughness(Hilux). You name it and Toyota has it. Any Toyota car will run forever with proper maintenance as it has bulletproof reliability and not to mention highest RV in the market anywhere.
So why get crap like Honda when you can have the best selling and most valuable car brand in the world.
So be smart like me and get a Toyota!!
safety? toyota ada crash lab sendiri at gothenburg ka? phuii
Hilux now got 7 airbags, VSC, TRC, TRC, BSC and PHD…
Sam Loo said u kalah oledi la John
Sam loo oso said Iriz got all those at half the price of ur hailat. So u double kalah woh
Sam loo says kesian to u lor… iriz where can compare to hiluk … 1 is consider big car can carry tanah 1 tan and go hutan…1 is small city car.. Sam loo say what la u john.. nowadays why kalah so much for? Hehehe
Proton the volvo of asia dont have esc in 113k perdana, wahahah
It’ll still be Toyota next year. They’re ahead of the competition when it comes to eco-friendly techs; and they have the resources that can change/shape the landscape of the industry.
The hybrid war is basically non-existent; Toyota takes up at least half of the market, and is ready to combat electric cars directly with fuel cell, which is more promising and the route to future.
Proton? The most valuable car brand for rebadging old model from other car brands and gifting them a new lease of life!
Congrats toyota…it goes without saying…period (unlike RBAs who will find fault with others and continue to condemn this and that but still hadap to live in this country…poor souls)
1st.Apple Car
2nd.Google Car
3rd.Windows Car
4th.Cola Car
5th.FB Car
6th.Toyota Car…..LOL
And UMW manage to ruin it in malaysia…
Yes I second that statement. Toyota builds uber-reliable vehicles that sell themselves in the majority of the global markets (albeit losing to Nissan in China).
But Toyota’s value and integrity of providing reliability and peace of mind to consumers are ruined by UMW’s appetite to squeeze every Ringgit and Sen from Malaysians.
I say we boycott Toyotas. Tell our family and friends to consider the Nissans, the Hondas and etc.
UMW; ignorant much?
Let buyers be the ultimate judge about Toyota in Malaysia. If people are not buying, some positive changes will happen. No need for you to get on a soapbox to call for a boycott.
Hey smarttess or smartarse whatever your name is……finding life tough within the four walls of a Toyota showroom?
Secupak lah u, obviously they are not from toyata’s showroom looking at their statement, don’t just blast blindly
Precisely, it’s time UMW learn a lesson. But sadly, i doubt they will and will continue offering minimal safety for maximum price.
Rumor has it Nissan will come in directly to take over from Tan Chong, but of course with a JV requirement with GLCs…… and in no time, Nissan in MAlaysia will end up like Toyota and Honda Malaysia.
The answer for Malaysian is so very obvious, surely a Proton in top100 next year. Cheers!!!
“Proton expected to return to glory after the end of Tun Mahathir’s political interference – PM Najib Razak”
No Tesla? Odd.
Volvo should make it too, their renaissance started by new XC90 mk2 is truly game changer.
As long as its not a kimchi, it will have RV
honda..you need working hard
Where is VW? Hahah….
Buy Toyota confirm RV no issue.
Eh wait, I sound like Sam Loo now LOL
don’t be so happy or gloat around lah Toyota this , toyota that !!!.. its the worldwide Toyota for 1st world country that they are talking about, not the crap , low spec, low quality and safety that we are getting here .. dont lah be too perasan liao….
What about Proton? Most invaluable Company?
Most Valued For Money Company
It seem everybody are dreaming a very excellent car but unfortunately it just a dreaming…..ha…ha…ha..
Stupid…new mpv avanza 1.3cc clearly is bullshit….dont say genting or cameron..even bukit beruntong hill road cannot go…totally wasted…but no one mau komplen atau bash..toyota ma..jipun mari..even they regret as hell after buy the avanza..pretenting and keep said..ohhh..avanza good..mau jaga muka ma… Avanza also a failed car from toyota… My surrounding friends most of them drive imported car like..vw, bmw, mazda, ford, honda, mitsu and toyota. Also got problem, sometime 3-4weeks at service center.. But they never voice out or bash it…why???…malulaaa..kereta import ma..even 1month in service center still pretending their car is the best even the service center cant solve it..thats y ur car keep at the service center for weeks and months…..stupid.
Just drive Proton lah you
what muka to jaga with Avanza? Just pick reliable, point A to B nuff.
change this perspective, it only hurt your pocket
ford is more valuable than audi, lexus, porsche, nissan and vw? not bad
