Toyota sees further recovery in global car production in August
- Toyota Motor has said that it aims to make 15,000 fewer vehicles in August than its initial plan, which was around 750,000 units.
Toyota Motor Corp will make 2% fewer vehicles globally in August than originally planned, the Japanese automaker said on Tuesday, as output recovers gradually from a steep drop because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The company said it aimed to make 15,000 fewer vehicles than its initial plan, which was around 750,000, according to Reuters' calculations. August's reduction is smaller than the cut of 10% seen in July, and June's 40%.
