As the world grows increasingly unstable and divisions deepen, we are being called to explore new forms of “connection.”
Accepting one another as we are, and understanding different values through empathy and dialogue, can be a first step toward healing social divides.
Technology is a powerful tool, yet it is also important to consciously create moments when we choose not to stay connected.
By stepping back from the digital flood and allowing ourselves the space to reflect on harmony with nature and the environment, we open the door to richer choices. This, in turn, cultivates new forms of connection and fosters a more sustainable society.

We now live in an age of unprecedented instability. Wars continue all around the world, divisions are deepening, and economic instability has grown enormously. However, it is precisely these chaotic times that call for new connections. Perhaps the question now is how each of us can approach our own individuality and foster empathy with others. Mutual understanding between people with different values - achieved through empathy and dialogue while maintaining mental stability by accepting ourselves as we are and facing both the past and our emotions - can ease societal fracturing. Technology is certainly a powerful tool for connecting people for that purpose, but occasionally taking time to intentionally disconnect is also crucial. Having space to take a step back from the digital deluge and think about harmony with nature or coexistence with the natural environment creates a richer array of choices.
Individual and society, customer and company, technology and nature, global and local - harmoniously balancing these aspects will create a prosperous and sustainable future society.

The pandemic represented a significant turning point for all of humanity, including the automobile industry, prompting a reevaluation of lifestyles and business models. As lifestyles diversified and new ways of living emerged, we deeply contemplated what is 'right' for future lifestyles and economic activities, reevaluating truly necessary elements. As a result, areas increasing in importance surfaced, such as individual health management, respect for differences, and environmental concerns. With an outlook towards new markets, it's been three years since the foundation for the next stage was built. The world is once again moving towards a renewed stage.
