Toyota, Honda Lead Increase in Japan’s January Vehicle Sales

By Kiyori Ueno
Feb. 1 (Bloomberg) -- Toyota Motor Corp. and Honda Motor Co., Japan’s two biggest automakers, led the sixth straight increase in the nation’s monthly auto sales as government incentives spurred demand.
Sales of cars, trucks and buses, excluding minicars, rose 37 percent from a year earlier to 238,362 vehicles in January, the Japan Automobile Dealers Association said in a statement today. Toyota boosted sales to 117,154 vehicles, excluding Lexus-brand cars. The company’s recent recalls of vehicles for faulty accelerator pedals don’t include models sold in Japan.
Japan’s auto sales began recovering from a yearlong slide in August as government rebates and tax cuts for fuel-efficient vehicles helped rekindle demand. The incentives helped raise sales by about 600,000 vehicles last year and may increase them by about 900,000 this year, the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association said on Dec. 24.
Domestic sales rose 65 percent at Honda in January, while Nissan Motor Co., Japan’s third-largest automaker, sold 24 percent more vehicles.
Under a government program that began in June, consumers can apply for a 250,000 yen ($2,800) subsidy if they scrap a car more than 13 years old to buy a new one, and 100,000 yen for a new car purchased without scrapping an older vehicle. The subsidies are available retroactively for purchases from April 10. The government has extended the program, which was initially set to expire at the end of March, for six months until September.
Electric, hybrid, natural-gas, and some diesel vehicles also qualify for an exemption from the country’s weight and purchase taxes.
Japan’s vehicle sales may rise 4.1 percent to 4.8 million units in 2010, according to the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association.

Ford US auto sales jump 24 percent in January
(AFP) – 1 hour ago
CHICAGO — Ford Motor Co. posted a 24 percent jump in January US auto sales on Tuesday and estimated its market share grew by two points from a year earlier.
The gains follow strong growth in recent months and came after rival Toyota was forced to suspend sales on some of its most popular models in the wake of a massive recall due to faulty accelerator pedals.
"People increasingly are discovering that the Ford difference is the strength of our products, particularly our leadership in quality, fuel efficiency, safety, smart technologies and value," said Ken Czubay, Ford vice president for US marketing, sales and service.
Ford estimated that its total sales of 112,406 vehicles in January would result in a US market share of about 16 percent.
The second largest US automaker said higher sales for every brand and in every product category propelled the growth.
Cars sales were up 43 percent, crossovers were up 20 percent, sport utilities were up eight percent, and trucks and vans were up 14 percent.
Among brands, Ford sales were up 26 percent, Lincoln sales were up 16 percent and Mercury sales were up six percent.
Sales to government, commercial and rental fleets were up 154 percent from last January's depressed levels when purchases were deferred due to the credit crunch and economic crisis.
Sales at Volvo, which Ford is in the midst of selling to China's Geely, were up 42 percent at 4,128 vehicles.
Ford, which unlike General Motors and Chrysler was able to survive the industry's worst year in decades without resorting to bankruptcy and government bailouts, posted its first annual profit since 2005 last week.
The company reported net earnings of 2.7 billion dollars profit for 2009 and said it expects to be profitable in 2010 and 2011.
The results represent a stunning comeback for Ford after years of painful restructuring and bleeding balance sheets.
Ford also managed to post its first annual market share gain since 1995 last year.

The all-new, 9th generation E-Class continued to shine with sales of 3,824, up an astounding 116.3% over January 2009.
As further proof of the Mercedes-Benz competitive presence in the luxury light truck market, the champion M-Class reported sales of 1,927, up 42.2% over last January; the sporty GLK followed suit with sales of 1,803, up 38.7% - beating its launch numbers of 1,300 posted in January 2009.

Toyota Canada was down 10% in January. Back when Toyota was hit hard, Toyota held steady so if Toyota Canada is down then I suspect Toyota USA should be hit pretty hard
