Global retail sales volume for 1Q FY2016 totaled 221,000 units, a decrease of 16% or 41,000 units over the same period last fiscal year. Sales volumes by region were as follows.
Japan: Sales volume totaled 10,000 units, a year-on-year decrease of 43% or 8,000 units. Although sales volume of registered vehicles remained unchanged, year-on-year minicars sales volume dropped drastically due to impact from the halt in production and sales, resulting in an overall decrease for the region.
North America: Sales volume totaled 37,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 5% or 2,000 units. The increase was driven in particular by firm sales of the Outlander.
Europe: A sales volume plunge in Russia due to its continuingly stagnant economy was mitigated by an increase in sales of the Outlander in Western Europe, limiting the decrease in sales to 8,000 units for a sales volume total of 47,000 units, a year-on-year decrease of 15%.
Asia: Although sales of the Pajero Sport in Indonesia shifted upward; together with increases in sales volume of the Mirage and Attrage in both Thailand and the Philippines contributed to the increase, sales volume in China decreased as the number of vehicles in MMC lineup applicable for the government subsidy for small cars (in effect from October 2015) were limited.
This decrease negatively impacted the region; resulting in overall sales volume of 71,000 units, a year-on-year decrease of 8% or 7,000 units for the entire Asia region.
