Consolidated Automobile Sales
Subaru's global vehicle sales showed a recovery trend from the second quarter, especially in its key North American market and posted a year-over-year increase in the October–December period. However, due to the impact of the semiconductor shortage on fourth quarter operations, global vehicle sales for the full year decreased 16.8% to 860,000 units. Overseas vehicle sales fell 16.5% to 758,000 units, while vehicle sales in Japan dropped 19.1% to 102,000 units.
