I am at the top of Toyota and drive cars myself. I was also born with this name.

I myself, as well as Toyota, am not perfect. I, more than anyone, wish for our customers' cars to be safe.

People look at me and think I am an expert in the automobile industry, and I'm not.

When consumers purchase a Toyota, they are not simply purchasing a car, truck or van. They are placing their trust in our company.

After I joined Toyota, there was a period when I drove more than 200 cars in one year - different types, other companies' cars. I want to be able to tell what distinguishes one car from the next.

I ride many different cars. Let's say I would drive 200 different vehicles in a year, so it's rather difficult to say which car or what car I ride. I love cars.
