Meeting the Challenges Ahead
As leaders in the world automotive industry, we have been pioneers in innovation – focusing on the
consumer, emphasizing quality and cost control while investing in cutting-edge technological and
environmental research. However, like our competitors, our companies, workers, dealers, and consumers
have been sorely tested by what is being called the most severe world recession since the Great
Depression. The numbers in this brochure reflect that. Yet as we begin to emerge from the economic
downturn, we believe our values have positioned us to continue to lead and prosper in a new, restructured
and more disciplined market place.
For example, our commitment to the U.S. market has not wavered. Honda opened a new manufacturing
plant in Greensburg, Indiana, in 2008, bringing the total number of Japan Automobile Manufacturers
Association (JAMA) company manufacturing facilities in the U.S. to a new high of 31. Our combined
investments in our American vehicle, engine, and parts manufacturing facilities rose by more than a
billion dollars to $33,674,000,000, a major contribution to local economies even in the face of these
severe economic conditions. We have increased the number of our American employees devoted to
research by 6 percent, a number now approaching 4,000 people working in 34 major U.S. research
facilities. Unfortunately, our total employment fell during 2008 as the recession took its toll on the
economy. At the end of 2008, we employed 392,635 workers in the U.S., down nearly 8 percent.
The largest decrease came in our manufacturing operations. Manufacturing employment dropped
8 percent.
The American automobile industry is being remade, sculpted by the implosion of a market that could
not support its costs and consumers who would not support the status quo. Companies that will succeed
in this new world must reflect the new market realities. Management must be alert to changing
conditions, demands and trends and be lean enough – flexible enough – to meet them. There is a
revived insistence on value for money, quality, and outstanding design in cars and trucks that will last.
Consumers care about the environment and the safety of their families, and want technology to support
their lifestyles in the 21st century.
We believe this new marketplace is the one consumers have been waiting for, and so holds great
opportunity for automakers ready to satisfy them. We are continuing to invest, research and build in
order to provide the vehicles our consumers demand. We continue to focus our production in North
America, where we still make nearly two-thirds of the cars and trucks that we sell in the U.S. This
brochure provides the details of the JAMA member company investments in the U.S., and hints about
our dreams for the future.

Purchases of U.S. Auto Parts Drop to
Below $40 Billion in Recession
The purchases of U.S. parts by Japanese automakers in Japan fiscal year 2008 (April 2008 - March
2009) fell to $39.26 billion from the previous year due to the economic recession, which has sharply
reduced auto production and the need for, and purchase of, auto parts.

Note: Data includes purchases of U.S. auto parts by JAMA members for vehicles built in both the U.S. and Japan.
Exports Contribute to the U.S. Economy
Japanese auto companies export cars from their U.S. plants, in addition to meeting U.S. consumer demand.
In 2008, Japanese manufacturers’ affiliates in the U.S. exported 275,127 American-built cars and trucks to
countries around the world. These exports consisted of 17.6% of total new vehicle shipments from the U.S.

Contributions in the U.S.
Hybrid Vehicles
JAMA members first introduced hybrids in the U.S. market in the late 1990s. Since then, their sales steadily
increased through 2007 when they reached just over 322,000, before declining somewhat in 2008 to nearly
282,000 due to the economic recession. JAMA members have introduced new hybrid models in 2009 and
plan even more in the years to come.

Next-Generation Vehicles
Having distinguished themselves by being the first to offer hybrid vehicles to consumers worldwide, Japanese
automakers continue to work on new technologies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and the world’s
dependence on oil and give consumers an environmentally friendly means of transportation.
Fuel Cell Vehicles

Toyota is developing a plug-in hybrid vehicle that can be charged
using external power sources based on its hybrid technology,
which it has positioned as a core technology for environmentally
considerate vehicles. A plug-in hybrid basically operates as an
electric vehicle on short trips and as a conventional hybrid vehicle
on longer ones. Toyota intends to introduce approximately 500
plug-in hybrid vehicles globally, primarily to fleet customers, to
encourage market acceptance and promote understanding.
