Supply chain: Toyota Noah / Voxy details
The Toyota Noah (4th generation) is a mid-size minivan/MPV launched in January 2022 (the Suzuki Landy is an OEM-supplied model). It shares its basic structure with its sibling model, the Voxy, and is differentiated primarily in terms of design. The powertrain is 1.8-liter inline-4 hybrid. It is available in 7 / 8-seater configurations with three rows of seats, and features sliding doors on both sides. It utilizes the TNGA "GA-C" platform. Among the major suppliers, core partner Denso supplies many components, including HVAC, millimeter-wave radar, and inverters. Aisin supplies the electric 4WD system; Toyota Boshoku (including its subsidiary COWERK) supplies the seats; Toyoda Gosei supplies the front grille; Murakami supplies mirrors; and HOWA supplies acoustic insulators, among others, with Toyota-affiliated supplier being prominently featured. Meanwhile, among foreign suppliers, Bosch supplies ABS actuators, Joyson Safety Systems supplies seat belts, and Aumovio (formerly Continental) supplies blind spot monitor sensors, among other components.
