Statistics

Japan’s production falls by 0.5% in September. While some lingering production delays from the Kumamoto earthquake persist, the overall decline is driven by reduced output of the Suzuki Spacia and Honda N-BOX. On the other hand, Nissan and Subaru help limit the overall market decline by increasing production of models such as the new Kicks and the Outback, respectively.
