00:22Hino Motors, a Toyota employee, admitted to being guilty of emission fraud, which has been going on for years in the United States.
00:33And as a consequence, Hino was charged with a fine of US$1.6 billion by the U.S. Judiciary.
00:37The District Court in Detroit, United States, accepted Hino's guilty statement and dropped several charges against Hino.
00:44Among them, a fine of US$521.76 million, a five-year probationary period with the prohibition of smuggling diesel engines made in the United States.
00:54And to pay for the Mainly Judgment Vehicle, a fine of US$1.87 billion.
00:59The U.S. judicial system allows companies that deliberately violate environmental laws, including the input of data for stone smuggling, to be prosecuted and will be asked to answer criminally.
01:11Both Toyota and Hino have not given an official statement on this case.
01:16Hino's violation was in the 2010-2022 period.
01:21Hino recorded excess emissions on more than 105,000 vehicles in the United States.
01:26Then in the 2010-2019 period, Hino used illegal crossroads with the input of test data and misused the engine certification process.
01:36Then since 2003, an internal investigation report in 2022 states that Hino has entered data since at least 21 years ago.
01:44President Hino Satoshi Ogiso previously stated that the company has increased the culture of cooperation and internal management.

02:00This case is named after the emissions scandal in the automotive industry, followed by the Volkswagen scandal in 2015,
02:06which resulted in a loss of more than US$20 billion after the company installed an emission test device on 11 million vehicles globally.
