Wednesday March 5, 8:56 AMToyota considers entering aircraft industry: official
Toyota may put up funds to a company to be set up by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries for its passenger jet project, Toyota spokeswoman Kayo Doi said. "Mitsubishi Heavy has invited us to invest (in the venture) and we are considering it," she said, while adding nothing has been decided yet. The comment came after a report Wednesday in the Asahi Shimbun daily which says Toyota plans to put up 10 billion yen (97 million dollars) in the venture to be set up in April. Mitsubishi has been developing small passenger airplanes under its Mitsubishi Regional Jet project. |
