The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has been found more wrongdoings related to the Hino Motors engine emissions certification fraud, on top of previously announced offenses on 4 March 4 and 2 August 2022, Hino-owner Toyota Motor said this morning in Japan.
The added “facts following were found in the emission performance deterioration endurance tests conducted by Hino on all of the company’s vehicle engine models subject to the 2016 emission regulations in Japan.” Thus the embarrassing anti-environmental aspects of the cheating are still expanding.
