An unfortunate headline to this piece. Surely "increase" would have served just as well?

Toyoda believes the moves will help keep auto production in Japan and quicken product development to remain globally competitive

I am patiently waiting for PRIUS V to buy. There are not enough Toyota iinventories here in US since 3/11.

I am not planning to buy anyting else but TOYOTA! There are many royal customers like me here. This is a great news!
