- FY2026The pace of the transition to CASE is diverging by region and policyAnnual report
「While plans for a rapid transition to electric vehicles have been postponed in some developed countries following policy reviews, the adoption of electric vehicles and autonomous driving is progressing by leaps and bounds in some emerging countries. We are therefore facing rapid changes in the environment surrounding the response to CASE.」
The discussion of changes in the CASE area has expanded from a shift in an individual market, namely China's EV shift, to a situation in which the pace of EV and autonomous-driving adoption differs between developed and emerging countries. - FY2024-Q2Changes in market needs driven by the EV shift have become apparent in China.Annual report
「In China, the shift to EVs is advancing rapidly, and market needs are changing significantly.」
The discussion of major changes in the automotive industry, including CASE and electrification, now specifically states that the EV shift is advancing rapidly in China and that market needs are changing significantly. - FY2022RestatedAnnual report
「In developed countries undergoing urbanization, there is demand for vehicles that do not collide, vehicles that do not require human drivers, and clean, environmentally friendly vehicles, accelerating the development of next-generation vehicles represented by CASE.」
The explanation continues to be based on technological innovation and structural changes in the automotive industry centered on CASE. - FY2019First statedAnnual report
「In the automotive industry, technological innovation is advancing rapidly in new areas known as “CASE,” including connected vehicles, autonomous driving, sharing and electrification, and the once-in-a-century period of major transformation continues to undergo more dramatic change than initially anticipated.」
The company explicitly identifies for the first time the structural transformation of the automotive industry as technological innovation in the CASE domain comprising connected vehicles, autonomous driving, sharing and electrification.
