The production suspension plan will reduce Toyota Motor Corporation’s production by 330,000 units in October this year (150,000 units in the Japanese market and 180,000 units in the overseas market).

The automotive industry is currently suffering from a shortage of parts, and the shortage of automotive chips is even more serious. In addition to Toyota, Japanese car companies such as Subaru and Nissan, as well as American car companies such as Ford and General Motors, have also adopted intermittent production suspension or reduction measures on the production lines of some of their factories this year. A few days ago it was reported that Jeep Grand Cherokee L also cancelled the Quadra-Lift air suspension configuration due to chip shortage.
