B[Toyota's sales and production fell for the second consecutive month in August] September 29th, Toyota Motor said that its global car sales and production fell for the second consecutive month in August. Previously, sales in markets such as the United States and the Middle East continued to decline, which had dragged down last month's performance. The world's largest automaker's global sales in August fell 6.4% year-on-year to 790,743 vehicles; production fell 5.9% year-on-year to 700,860 vehicles. Sales in the Chinese market fell by 22.8%, sales in the United States, Toyota's largest market, fell by 4.4%, and sales in the Middle East plummeted by 37.5%, offsetting a 9.1% increase in the Japanese market. B[Japan’s three major automakers all recorded double-digit year-on-year sales declines in China in August] On September 9, all new car sales data for Japan’s three major automakers in China in August have been released. Toyota, Nissan and Honda all recorded double-digit year-over-year sales declines. Toyota's new car sales in China in August were 118,400 units, a year-on-year decrease of 22.8%, and were lower than the same period last year for seven consecutive months. Nissan's sales were 28,275 units, a year-on-year decrease of 51.9%; Honda's sales were 26,749 units, a year-on-year decrease of 49.9%. Both sales were nearly halved. Nissan's sales have declined year-on-year for five consecutive months, while Honda's has been lower than the same period last year for 31 consecutive months. Analysts believe that as price competition among various electric vehicle companies in China becomes increasingly fierce, electric vehicles with more obvious price advantages have attracted more consumer demand, while sales of fuel vehicles, the mainstay of Japanese car companies, continue to be sluggish.
