We at Toyota would like to again apologize for the repeated adjustments to our production plans due to the parts shortage resulting from the spread of COVID-19, and for causing considerable inconvenience to our customers, who have been waiting for the delivery of vehicles, suppliers, and other parties concerned.
We have decided to make additional production suspension adjustments to some domestic plants due to the difficulty of procuring parts from a supplier caused by heavy rain damage, mainly in Aichi Prefecture. The number of units affected by this decision is approximately 200, and combined with the number announced on July 27, the total number of units affected by the heavy rain damage is approximately 4,200.
As it remains difficult to look ahead due to the shortage of semiconductors and the spread of COVID-19, there is a possibility that the production plan may be lower. However, we will examine the parts supply closely to minimize sudden decreases in production, and continue to make every effort possible to deliver as many vehicles to our customers at the earliest date.
