The Japan-United States
Autos and Auto Parts Consultations

Steadfast implementation of the Measures and increased foreign access to the Japanese autos and auto parts market

Q.

Did the highly tensed negotiation give negative impact on the cooperative relations among Japanese and U.S. automakers?

A.

Not so much. As a matter of fact, the environment is now becoming more conducive to strengthening cooperative relations. For example, the 1995 Tokyo Motor Show presented the first opportunity in three and a half years for members of Japanese and United States auto manufacturers associations to confer together.
