  • Toyota, Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi Agree to Joint Development of Charging Infrastructure for Phvs, Phevs and Evs in Japan
    Toyota Motor Corporation Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. Honda Motor Co., Ltd. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation Toyota, Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi Agree to Joint Development of Charging Infrastructure for PHVs, PHEVs and EVs in Japan TOKYO, Japan (July 29, 2013) – Toyota Motor Corporation, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Honda Motor Co., Ltd., and Mitsubishi Motors Corporation jointly announced their agreement to work together to promote the installation of chargers for electric-powered vehicles (PHVs, PHEVs, EVs*) and build a charging network service that offers more convenience to drivers in Japan. The move is in recognition of the critical need to swiftly develop charging infrastructure facilities to promote the use of electric-powered vehicles. Assisted by subsidies provided by the Japanese government, the four automakers will bear part of the cost to install the charging facilities. They will also work together to build a convenient and accessible charging network in collaboration with companies that are already providing charging services in which each of the four automakers already have a financial stake. At present, there are about 1,700 quick chargers and just over 3,000* normal chargers in Japan, which is generally recognized to be insufficient. In addition, the lack of sufficient coordination among existing charging providers can be improved to offer better charging service to customers. The government announced subsidies for installation of charging facilities totaling 100.5 billion yen as part of its economic policy for fiscal year 2013 to quickly develop the charging infrastructure and expand the use of electric-powered vehicles using alternative energy sources. Currently, each prefecture in Japan is drawing up a vision for the use of the subsidies.

  • November 16, 2020 Mitsubishi Chemical's SMC Adopted for Roof of Toyota GR Yaris
    November 16, 2020 Mitsubishi Chemical’s SMC Adopted for Roof of Toyota GR Yaris Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation Carbon fiber sheet molding compound (SMC) produced by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (MCC; Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Masayuki Waga) has been adopted for the roof of the new GR Yaris launched by Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota; Head office: Toyota-shi, Aichi; President: Akio Toyoda) in September this year. Developed by MCC, this SMC is a type of intermediate material for carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs), and takes the form of a sheet-shaped material in which carbon fibers cut into several-centimeter lengths are dispersed in resin. The SMC can be processed into components in a short period of time, i.e., roughly two to five minutes, by press molding. In contrast to prepreg intermediate materials (uncut carbon fiber fabric impregnated with resin), this SMC features high formability for molding complicated shaped parts. Also, since the SMC’s mechanical properties are almost homogeneous, manufacturers can use carbon fiber with relative ease and achieve weight reduction and high strength while utilizing previously accumulated expertise in component design. Toyota adopted MCC’s SMC for the GR Yaris because it enables the automaker to achieve major weight reductions and high levels of component performance. Toyota also rated MCC’s SMC highly for its superior formability, which enables production of complicated shaped parts. This is the third round of Toyota vehicles that have used MCC’s SMC, following on from its adoption for the rear door frame of the Prius PHV in February 2017 and door and luggage room inner panels of the Lexus LC500 and LC500h luxury coupes in March 2017.
