丰田宣布，旗下的雷克萨斯中国业务(Lexus China)将下调部分向其它厂商出售的零部件价格。

雷克萨斯周四发表声明：“鉴于公众和当局加大对汽车零部件定价行为的关注，雷克萨斯中国决定降低部分零部件的售价，并维护客户满意度。”
On Wednesday Chinese regulators accused 12 Japanese car parts manufacturers of colluding to overcharge carmakers including Toyota and Ford.
周三，中国监管机构指控12家日本汽车配件制造商合谋对丰田和福特(Ford)等汽车厂商抬价。

中国国家发改委(NDRC)已对其中10家企业处以总额为12.4亿元人民币（约合2亿美元）的罚款，这是中国监管机构有史以来开出的最大一张反垄断罚单。国家发改委指称，2000年至2011年期间，这些企业私下协商并操纵价格。
