NAGOYA, Japan -- Toyota Motor said Thursday it will reduce global production for September by 40% from its previous plan, as the spread of the coronavirus in Southeast Asia adds to supply troubles for Japan's top automaker.
The maker of the Prius hybrid and the RAV4 SUV planned to build nearly 900,000 automobiles for the month, but that number has been reduced to about 500,000. Nikkei reported on the production cuts earlier.
Unlike other automakers, Toyota had been relatively unscathed by the global chip shortage. But other components are starting to run short as Southeast Asian nations, home to key links in the company's supply chain, struggle to contain the coronavirus, forcing Toyota to halt assembly lines at home and abroad.
At roughly 500,000 units, Toyota's global production in September will be the lowest since May 2020, when the coronavirus was hitting U.S. and European factories.
#Toyota announced that it will reduce its global production by 40% in September due to Covid-related factory disruptions and renewed chip shortage. https://t.co/eqOEnDAkNM #Automotive
