Default Re: Nissan regains No. 2 spot in Japan (autonews.com)

Originally posted by Tirod-slc
TOKYO - With the biggest production increase among Japan's Big 5 automakers last year, Nissan Motor Co. reclaimed its title as Japan's No. 2 carmaker behind Toyota Motor Corp.

...

The shift to growth boosted Nissan's Japanese output of vehicles by 9.6 percent last year to 1.39 million.
...

Toyota's overseas output jumped 20.8 percent to 2.15 million units while Mazda's climbed 21.6 percent to 169,540. Nissan's, meanwhile, rose 6.5 percent to 1.30 million.

Both Honda and Mitsubishi produced more vehicles outside Japan than at home.

Honda's overseas output rose 10.8 percent to 1.51 million compared with 1.38 million in Japan....
Wait a sec, worldwide Honda still sells more than Nissan.

Honda JDM: 1.38 million
Honda overseas: 1.51 million
-------------------------------------
Honda WORLDWIDE: 2.89 million


Nissan JDM: 1.39 million
Nissan overseas: 1.30 million
-------------------------------------
Nissan WORLDWIDE: 2.69 million
