Toyota Motor Corp. Chairman Akio Toyoda's executive compensation for the fiscal year ended March 2026 was 2.11 billion yen, an 8% increase from the previous fiscal year, according to a securities report submitted to the Kanto Local Finance Bureau on Wednesday. This marks the first time in Toyota's history that executive compensation has exceeded 2 billion yen.

The breakdown was as follows: 396 million yen as fixed compensation; 620 million yen as a bonus and 1.09 billion yen as share compensation. "In addition to the duties of the chairman and a director, he plays a wide range of roles, including involvement in the industry as a whole and building relationships with external partners," Toyota said was the reason for the amount.

Former President Koji Sato, who assumed the position of vice chairman in April, received 803 million yen, a 3% decrease. This was due to a reduction in his performance-based bonus.
