日本丰田汽车公司近日宣布将从美国通用汽车公司收购其占有的日本富士重工8.7%的股份,而通用汽车和富士重工将解除两家公司之间全部的财政以及运营伙伴关系。
据美联社近日报道,日本丰田汽车公司和富士重工代表在日前召开的共同新闻发布会上宣布,通用汽车和富士重工将解除两家公司之间全部的财政以及运营伙伴关系;除去此次向丰田公司转手的8.7%富士重工股份,通用汽车掌握的剩余11.4%的富士重工股份将转手其他收购者。目前,丰田以及富士两家公司正在展开积极的磋商,以决定未来合作的主要方向及其他细节问题。
由于在北美、欧洲以及亚洲市场取得创纪录的销量业绩,丰田汽车公司近来可谓意气风发。而美国通用汽车在今年第一季度中的亏损额则达到了11亿美元。
通用与丰田一直以来保持着良好的合作关系,特别是在环保技术领域签署了长期的合作协议,两家公司还在美国加利福尼亚建立了一家合资汽车装配工厂。两家汽车制造商之间此前并不互相持有股份。 丰田公司同时持有其他两家日本汽车公司的股份,分别为专营小型轿车的大发汽车和生产卡车的日野汽车。
Toyota Motor Corp. has agreed to buy an 8.7 percent stake in rival Japanese automaker Fuji Heavy Industries, the maker of Subaru cars, from General Motors Corp. for about $315 million, officials from the companies said Wednesday.
GM, the world's biggest automaker, also plans to sell its remaining 11.4 percent Fuji stake and dissolve its alliance with Fuji, the companies said. GM said "there were not enough collaborative projects" to sustain the alliance and that it planned to find other partners and markets in the Asia Pacific region for its resources.
Once GM's sales are completed, Toyota, Japan's biggest automaker, will be the top shareholder in Fuji.
The sales come in the wake of the U.S. automaker's losses of $1.1 billion in the first quarter and another $286 million in the second quarter.
