Toyota is a company both founded and based in Japan. Therefore, all of their cars are technically Japanese. Toyota has headquarters in several countries through which they make and distribute cars, but they were originally a Japanese company and the founder's last name was Toyota, giving them their name.
Because the founder of the company was Henry Ford. It was common for companies to use the name of the founder as the company name. Ford, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, Chrysler, Dodge, Toyota, Honda, Nash, Hudson, all family names, just to name a few early companies.
Toyota is named after its founder, Kiichiro Toyoda.
Soichiro Honda was the company's founder.
Toyota is a publicly traded company.
No. A founder, found the company. (or started it.) This would never change. An owner, owns the company. A founder could be an owner if he started the company with his own money. If the founder started the company with someone elses money he is not the owner. If the company is sold to a new owner. The new owner would not become the founder. That is unless you sold it to the person that was already the founder.
