TICO to reconfirm previous engine performance evaluation results for Europe

Text update 4 April 2024

Toyota Industries Corporation (TICO) has per 29th January 2024 communicated about its completed investigation regarding Japanese certifications of combustion engines.

On the same day, TICO proactively informed the concerned EU authority on the completed investigation in Japan. On 20th March, TICO received instructions from the EU authority to reconfirm already existing certificates from authorised EU certification bodies, by performing renewed test of engines.

Following this, TMHE has decided to postpone the market introduction and production of a new truck model - Tonero HST 4 – 8 t – until further notice. This in order to support the activities and wait for the reconfirmation of previous performance evaluation results.
