Going forward, we will take any necessary measures, such as performing testing with the certification authorities in attendance, in accordance with indications from the MLIT, while carefully confirming that our customers can trust our vehicles to support their daily lives as a company.

When resuming shipments and production, we will communicate closely with sales companies and related suppliers and make preparations to avoid confusion.
