Toyota extends its heartfelt sympathy to those who have been affected by the earthquakes occurring in Hokkaido since September 6.
Toyota aims to restart production in stages on its vehicle assembly lines between September 11 and September 13, following on from power supply restrictions and parts shortages resulting from the severe earthquakes that have struck Hokkaido since September 6. Operations at all the unit-producing factories are anticipated to begin from September 11. Production at Toyota Motor Hokkaido is planned to resume sequentially from today.
Toyota hopes for the soonest possible recovery of the affected areas.
