Toyota's Hino dives 12pc after Daimler truck merger reveal

TOKYO, June 11 — Shares in Hino Motors, the truck-making unit of Japanese auto giant Toyota, plunged yesterday after it announced a merger with a subsidiary of Germany's Daimler Truck. The move is seen as an attempt to stay competitive at a time when global automakers are faced with US trade tariff uncertainty and new Chinese rivals. The companies had said yesterday that the integration of Hino and Daimler's subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus would 'establish a new strong Japanese truck powerhouse'. They said they aimed to complete the merger, on an equal footing under a listed holding company, by April 2026. Hino Motors shares were down more than 12 per cent in morning trade today. 'Daimler Truck and Toyota will each aim to own 25 percent of the (listed) holding company of the integrated Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino,' a joint statement said. 'The companies aim to improve business efficiency in areas such as development, procurement and production,' it said. 'They expect to significantly enhance the competitiveness of Japanese commercial vehicle manufacturers and strengthen the foundation of the automotive industry in Japan and Asia.' The new company will work to develop models using new fuels and technologies, from electric trucks and hydrogen-powered trucks to autonomous driving systems. Analysts say Japanese firms have lost ground in the EV market in recent years by focusing more on hybrid vehicles, industry analysts say. China's highly competitive EV market is the largest in the world, led by Shenzhen-based carmaker BYD, which is accelerating its overseas expansion. — AFP

India's Maruti Suzuki cuts near-term EV production amid rare earths crisis

NEW DELHI, June 11 — Maruti Suzuki has cut near-term production targets for its maiden electric vehicle e-Vitara by two-thirds because of rare earths shortages, a document showed, in the latest sign of disruption to the auto industry from China's export curbs. India's top carmaker, which said on Monday it had not seen any impact yet from the supply crisis, now plans to make about 8,200 e-Vitaras between April and September, versus an original goal of 26,500, according to a company document seen by Reuters. It cited 'supply constraints' in rare earth materials that are vital in making magnets and other components across a range of hi-tech industries. Maruti still plans to meet its output target of 67,000 EVs for the year ending March 2026 by ramping up production in subsequent months, the document said. China's curbs on some rare earth exports have rocked the global auto industry, with companies warning of severe supply chain disruptions. While some companies in the United States, Europe and Japan are seeing supplies easing as they secure licences from Beijing, India is still waiting for China's approval amid fears of production stoppages. Launched amid much fanfare at India's car show in January, the e-Vitara is crucial to Maruti's EV push in the country, marking its entry in a segment that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government wants to grow to 30 per cent of all car sales by 2030 from about 2.5 per cent last year. The setback could also hurt parent Suzuki Motor, for which India is the biggest market by revenue and a global production hub for EVs. The bulk of the made-in-India e-Vitaras are earmarked for export by Suzuki to its major markets like Europe and Japan around summer 2025. Maruti told reporters last week the rare earths issue had no 'material impact' on the e-Vitara's launch timeline. Chair RC Bhargava said there was 'no impact at the moment' on production, local media reported on Monday. Maruti and Suzuki did not respond to requests for comment yesterday. Maruti shares trading on the Indian stock exchange fell as much as 1.4 per cent to the day's low after the news. Maruti is yet to open bookings for the e-Vitara with some analysts warning it is already late to launch EVs in the world's third-largest car market where Tesla is also expected to begin sales this year. Under its previous plan 'A', Maruti was to produce 26,512 e-Vitaras between April and September — the first half of the fiscal year. Under the revised plan 'B', it will manufacture 8,221, the document showed, indicating a two-thirds cut in its production schedule. However, in the second half of the financial year — between October and March 2026 — Maruti plans to ramp up production to 58,728 e-Vitaras, or about 440 per day at its peak, versus a previous target of 40,437 for those six months under plan A. Two supply chain sources confirmed Maruti's plan to scale back e-Vitara production because of rare earth magnet shortages but were not privy to the exact numbers. The rare earths crisis comes as Maruti is already grappling to recover market share lost to Tata Motors and Mahindra & Mahindra's feature-rich SUVs. These companies also lead India's EV sales. Maruti's share of India's passenger vehicle market is down to 41 per cent from a recent peak of about 51 per cent in March 2020. Suzuki has trimmed its sales target for India to 2.5 million vehicles by March 2031 from 3 million previously, and scaled back its lineup of EV launches to just four, instead of the six planned before, as competition in the South Asian nation intensifies. — Reuters
