Meanwhile, Lexus and other imported Toyota autos will also become available in China again next month, but deliveries of some models might be delayed, the company said.
A massive earthquake and tsunami that hit northeastern Japan in March disrupted Toyota's supply chains, resulting in the suspension of production in its overseas factories.
Toyota, Japan's largest automaker, said May 6 that its sales fell 23 percent last month from one year earlier to 48,700 vehicles in the world's largest auto market.
