Contracts

-The Company announced that its high-performance active pedal is used in the new Fuga produced by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. For the Company, this is the first major business with Nissan in areas other than fuel supply systems and engine related products. The Company's advanced active pedal functions as a cruise control system by helping the driver keep a safe distance between the vehicle and the car traveling ahead. It also supports fuel-efficient driving by preventing excessive amount of fuel to be consumed especially when the vehicle is starting or gathering speed. Delivery of the active pedal already began in October. The product is assembled at the Company's Kikugawa Plant in Shizuoka Pref. using controllers manufactured at its Morioka Plant in Takizawa, Iwate Pref.
