1 Making Ever-better Cars through TNGA Toyota Motor Corporation Project General Manager / TNGA Planning Div Motoo Kamiya

2 1. Vehicle Production until Now Number of models Variety of engine types Increases to approx. 800 types Approx. 800 No. of types 16 Approx. 100 types due to sub-platforms Basic engine models Differences in displacement Differences Platforms, in fuel consumption Drive systems Meeting exhaust regulations The sheer variety of models/engines can make it difficult to continue making each individual model ever-better 2

3 2. TNGA Improve basic performance (features related to driving, turning and stopping) Improve product performance (enhanced materials and equipment) Ever-better car production Enable grouped development for strategic sharing of parts and major components Work with suppliers to reduce costs 3

4 2. TNGA Improving basic performance and product performance Creating cars with attractive, eye-catching designs 4

5 3. Using TNGA to Improve Basic Performance and Product Performance Improve basic performance by enhancing powertrains and platforms New powertrains New transmissions New platforms New engines New hybrid systems 5

6 3. Using TNGA to Improve Basic Performance and Product Performance New powertrains drastically improve drive performance and fuel efficiency Powertrain efficiency improvements: conventional gasoline-engine vehicles Powertrain efficiency improvements: hybrid vehicles Powertrain Fuel efficiency improvement New powertrains Approx. 15% or more Approx. 25% or more Powertrain Fuel efficiency improvement Approx. 15% or more Current Drive performance Existing system New system 6

7 3. Using TNGA to Improve Basic Performance and Product Performance Ensuring stable and pleasant handling by lowering the center of gravity of vehicles Lower center of gravity than competing models Controlling left and right roll Center of gravity Lowering the center of gravity of major components Current TNGA Car A Car B Car C Toyota Car D Car E (current) Car F Car G Car H Toyota (TNGA) 7

8 3. Using TNGA to Improve Basic Performance and Product Performance New platforms aim to promote safety, comfortable handling and a responsive drive New suspensions New frames Rigidity improved by percent 8

9 3. Using TNGA to Improve Basic Performance and Product Performance TNGA improves driving performance through Obedient response and Fine quality feeling Current models TNGA 9

10 3. Using TNGA to Improve Basic Performance and Product Performance TNGA improves forward visibility, making driving easier Current models Current models TNGA TNGA NOTE: visualization shows maximum possible improvement 10

11 3. Using TNGA to Improve Basic Performance and Product Performance Eye-catching designs Cars you want to own at first sight 11

12 4. Overall Optimization of Production through TNGA Functional parts that determine basic performance: better parts, shared strategically TNGA parts New development style spanning multiple car types and platforms; strategic sharing of parts 12

13 5. Individually Optimized Production through Toyota s Chief Engineer System Individually optimized model-specific parts with a look and feel that customers value Model-specific parts 13

14 6. Fusion of Chief Engineer System and TNGA Toyota s Chief Engineer system works perfectly with TNGA to promote production of ever-better cars TNGA More attractive car models (Bottom-up) Core technologies (Top-down) Chief Engineer system Gathering and refining expertise by improving our core technologies will allow us to strengthen our human resources 14

15 7. TNGA Rollout and Expansion TNGA rollout will start with the release of New Generation Prius this year Expansion to approx. half of lineup by
