TOKYO—Toyota Motor chief rebuked its commercial truck unit, Hino Motors over a scandal involving falsified fuel performance and emissions data that has led Hino to suspend most of its shipments in Japan.
Hino, which is 51%-owned by Toyota said Monday that an inspection by Japan’s Transport Ministry showed it failed to meet emissions testing requirements for one of its light-duty engine models, following similar disclosures about other models. Hino said it was suspending shipments of the trucks equipped with the engine in question.
