Production outside Japan

As has been announced, operations at Toyota Motor Thailand Co., Ltd.'s Samrong, Gateway and Ban Pho vehicle-production plants resumed on November 21.  Operation levels will be gradually increased as the situation regarding parts-supply, facilities and other factors continues to be assessed.

Vehicle-production plants in Indonesia, Malaysia and South Africa will continue to adjust production levels through December 3 based on an assessment of the parts-supply situation.

Production bases in North America will continue to operate at normal levels, including overtime, for the week beginning December 5.

All production after the above dates will be based on an assessment of the situation in the respective location.
