Insights

Toyota is executing a planned CEO transition and broader leadership reshuffle.

Toyota Motor Corporation is elevating Kenta Kon from Chief Financial Officer to President and Chief Executive Officer from April 1, 2026, while Koji Sato shifts to Vice Chairman and Chief Industry Officer. This keeps senior leadership within an experienced internal circle.

Board composition after the 122nd Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting in June 2026 will feature Akio Toyoda as Chairman, Kon as President and representative director, and Hiroki Nakajima and Yoichi Miyazaki as executive vice presidents and representative directors. Four Audit and Supervisory Committee Members, largely outside and independent, will remain.

The changes concentrate operational leadership in Kon and technical leadership in Nakajima, while Toyoda stays in a strategic chair role. Subsequent meetings after the General Shareholders’ Meeting will assign specific legal representative status and finalize titles, which will show how responsibilities are balanced across the new team.
