18/22 Alliance with Toyota Motor Corporation－Enhance corporate quality－

Next, I will discuss our alliance with Toyota Motor Corporation. Toyota remains our most important partner. We want to press ahead with collaboration in the areas of making ever-better cars and addressing transformation in a mobility society. First, in the area of environmental technologies, as we have already announced in a press release, we will consider collaboration to explore all possibilities for expanding electrification, including joint development of basic structural technologies for electric vehicles. We also want to further strengthen the alliance in the area of new technologies such as connected and security technologies, where we need to compete through collaboration.
