The View from Honda
“We are the most international of the
Japanese companies. At the
moment we are the most diversified,
and we will be more diversified in
the future. Still, I think it would be
very hard to build a one-type world
car. In the end, I don’t think it
would be very efficient.”
---Nobuhiko Kawamoto
President and CEO, Honda Motor Company

Management - Alain Hutinel
The View from Toyota
Our global strategy used to center on “world cars,”
which we would modify slightly to accommodate
demand in different markets. Today our focus is
shifting to models that we develop and manufacture
especially for selected regional markets.
Examples
North America: Avalon and Camry coupe and station
wagon. 1997 Sienna minivan.
NUMMI Joint Venture: Tacoma light pickup.
Europe: Carina E
Southeast Asia: Toyota Utility Vehicle (Kijang in Indonesia,
Tamaraw in Philippines)

"Our vision has been described to you
for a decade. We believed that only
businesses that were number-one or
number-two in their markets could win
in the increasingly competitive global
arena. Those that could not were to be
fixed, closed or sold."
