Hino Motors, a truck maker, had submitted incorrect data on engine emissions to the country, and the country revoked the certification required for production. This is the first time the government has disposed of it, and Hino Motors is expected to be unable to produce vehicles equipped with the target engine for at least several months.
On the 29th, the government installed an engine due to the problem of submitting illegal data on the emissions and fuel consumption of four types of engines manufactured by Hino Motors to the country and obtaining the “type approval” required for production. We have revoked the approval for the buses and trucks we have.
The target includes buses produced by Toyota Motors and Isuzu Motors, and this is the first time that the government has revoked the certification.
Although the cancellation will not be effective for cars that have already been produced, Hino Motors says that 35% of the cars with the target engine will be sold in Japan, and it is expected that it will not be able to be produced for at least several months until the certification is renewed. ..
When recertifying, the government should witness the measurement of Hino Motors’ data, and also confirm whether the recurrence prevention measures created by the company are appropriate, whether the management system is appropriate, and whether there is any fraud. I am doing it.
Apart from this disposition, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism plans to continue a detailed investigation into when a series of frauds have been committed retroactively.
Hino Motors “Take Disposal Seriously”
Hino Motors commented, “We apologize for the inconvenience caused to our customers and other related parties. We take this disposition seriously and will take sincere measures in the future.” ..
