Dow Jones noted that some insiders had been speculating that Cho, 67, would retire in June because Toyota sets the retirement age of presidents at 65.
However, without quoting sources, the website reported that Toyota has decided to keep Cho at its helm because large-scale investment projects, such as the construction of new production facilities in Europe and the US, are still in progress, Dow Jones said.
