On March 1 Toyota will make a decision on whether to reopen the lines from Monday March 4.
The suspension will continue for one line at Toyota Auto Body’s Inabe plant in Mie prefecture, where production includes the Alphard and Vellfire minivans, and one line at Gifu Auto Body’s main plant in Gifu prefecture, where production includes the HiAce van.
(This story has been refiled to remove ‘however’, in paragraph 4, and to say that production lines have been halted at plants run by Toyota group companies, not a group of companies, in paragraph 1)
