Toyota Motor stresses benefits to US www.nhk.or.jp
Toyota Motor is responding to criticism from US President-elect Donald Trump by highlighting its contribution to job creation in the United States.
Trump on Thursday condemned the Japanese automaker for building a factory in Mexico, which is to begin production in 2019. He tweeted a message saying, "NO WAY! Build plant in US or pay big border tax."
Toyota plans to respond that it has 10 plants in the US, employs 136,000 people there, and is contributing to the US economy.
Toyota officials say they do not intend to revisit plans for the new factory. They say the plant in Mexico will not affect Toyota's production or workforce in the US.
Toyota President Akio Toyoda is scheduled to attend the Detroit Auto Show next week.
Other Japanese automakers with plants in Mexico, including Nissan, Honda and Mazda, are becoming increasingly concerned.
They are planning to carefully monitor the economic policy of the incoming Trump administration.
