We have faced many challenges since 2009 but have learned valuable lessons, including the need for Toyota to maintain sustainable growth. We believe that the driver for sustainable growth is ultimately ever-better cars, and we are launching cars developed with this mindset. We are also making progress in reforming our manufacturing technologies and vehicle development processes under the Toyota New Global Architecture and I am convinced that the positive cycle defined for our business in the Toyota Global Vision is now gradually but steadily taking shape.”
