Toyota raising prices on some models in US this month

TOKYO -- Toyota is raising its prices on some U.S. models later this month amid increased worries about its profit growth in the American market.

The price increases, which will start in the middle of May, include a hike of $200 on the 2008 Yaris sedan, boosting the cost of the base model to $12,425, with higher prices for models with extra features.

The 2009 Camry will go up $200, to $18,920 for a model without any extras, the automaker's U.S. unit said in a statement released Friday.
