トヨタ自動車(株)『トヨタ自動車75年史』(2013.03)

Toyota Motor Corporation’s 75-year history consists of three parts. The first part, “Taking on the Automotive Business,” includes transcriptions of Toyoda Sakichi’s inventions and covers the period from Toyoda Kiichiro’s first foray into the automobile business in 1937 to preparations for post-WWII mass production and sales in the mid-1950s. Part 2, “Entering the Automotive Business,” covers the establishment of systems for mass production, the development of new car models, and the response to social demands in the late 1970s. Part 3, “Leaping Forward as a Global Corporation,” covers overseas production, globalization, and management crises from the merger of the production and sales arms of the company to the 2010s. There is an index at the end and a separate volume of collected materials. 75 Years of Toyota was first published in 2012 in digital form on the official website of the Toyota Motor Corporation before being published in print form the following year.
