TOKYO -- <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /> Toyota lowered its global vehicle sales plan for this year to 9.5 million vehicles -- down from 9.85 million -- as the sluggish North American market slows the Japanese automaker's momentum. The pace of Toyota 's growth has been slowing. "The main reason for the change came from the faltering U.S. economy, and how rising oil prices and material costs are dampening the market there overall," said Toyota spokeswoman Kayo Doi. Toyota now plans to sell 2.44 million vehicles in the U.S. , far less upbeat than the earlier plan to sell 2.64 million vehicles.
