Due to the effects of COVID-19 on the current market and the decline in demand of new vehicles globally, Toyota intends to continually make gradual adjustments in production operations at all plants for completed vehicles in Japan.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to our suppliers and people in those regions.

Specifically,

  1. We have decided to halt production at all plants for completed vehicles in Japan for four days, on June 5 (Fri), 12 (Fri), 19 (Fri), and 26 (Fri). (We plan to reflect the operation days on alternative dates.)
    Takaoka Plant, production line #2 and Toyota Industries Corporation, production lines #301 and #302 to operate during these four days (producing RAV4).
  2. In addition to the above non-operating days, we plan to halt production as well as reducing operation time from double shifts to a single shift for some of the plants and production lines as below.
