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

We estimate the production volume will be recovered up to approximately ten percent decrease compared to the initial plan.

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