Toyota Motor Corp., Nissan Motor Co. and Honda Motor Co. said car production in China was unaffected after the strongest earthquake on record in Japan forced parts makers to halt plants.
Output at Toyota’s China ventures is continuing normally, Liu Peng, a Beijing-based spokesman, said today without elaborating. Plants operated by Nissan have so far suffered “no impact” since last week’s temblor in Japan, spokesman Akihiro Nakanishi said. Honda’s Chinese factories have adequate parts supplies to ensure production until the end of the week, said Takayuki Fujii, a Beijing-based spokesman.
