Toyota Motor Corp. may delay the production of at least 500,000 vehicles in Japan because of a shortage of parts and electricity after the nation’s record earthquake, said an analyst at Advanced Research Japan.
Toyota’s operating profit may be hurt by at least 100 billion yen ($1.2 billion) in the fiscal year ending today and up to 200 billion yen next fiscal year, said Koji Endo, an auto analyst at the research company. Any impact on production that spills overseas will further damp earnings, he said. 2011 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Photo Gallery2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe Photo Gallery2012 BMW 6-Series Coupe Photo Gallery2011 Geneva Motor Show Photo GalleryLamborghini Showcase Photo GalleryAutoSpies.com Photo GalleriesIf you want to see your photos running on our homepage photo ticker, be sure to upload your photos on the go by sending them to Mobile@AutoSpies.com Share on Facebook
