Total consolidated automobile sales for the fiscal year ended March 2011 was 657 thousand units, up 94.1 thousand units compared with the previous fiscal year. The consolidated sales volume, exceeding 600 thousand units, was a record high. The total number of cars sold in the domestic market dipped 13.2 thousand units. Passenger car sales dropped 7 thousand units year on year due to the discontinuation of the eco-car subsidy program during the second half as well as the devastating earthquake that hit northeastern Japan in March. Minicar sales also fell 6.2 thousand units. In overseas markets, sales increased across the board by 107.3 thousand units to offset the decreased domestic sales volume.
