Soichiro Okudaira, new vice-president and general manager of Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing China (TMEC), said his first task after taking over was to speed up the localization process of hybrid powertrains in China.

Toyota will further speed up its research on new motors, Okudaira said in an interview at the 18th Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macao Internatinal Auto Show held in Shenzhen.
