TOKYO, JUNE 6: Toyota Motor Corp??™s Corolla compact car regained the top slot in Japan??™s vehicle sales ranking in May, surpassing the company??™s Vitz model.
Sales of the Corolla compact car fell 8.3% to 9,811 units, from a year ago, the Tokyo-based Japan Automobile Dealers Association said in a release on Tuesday. The company sold 8,220 units of the Vitz compact car in May, down 24% from the same month in 2005. Sales of Honda Motor Co??™s Fit compact car, the third-ranked model, fell 19% to 7,138 units.
Toyota, the world??™s second-biggest automaker, has won the top slot every month this year and had seven models in May??™s top 10.
Japan has one of the shortest product cycles in the world, which gives automakers boosts from releasing new models for about a year. Nissan Motor Co had two models in the top 10, and Honda had one model.
Domestic vehicle sales excluding mini cars are in their longest decline since a yearlong slump through August 2002, falling 7.8% to 256,870 units last month.
The auto dealers group??™s ranking excludes imports and mini cars.
Toyota, based in central Japan??™s Toyota City, released the current version of the Corolla in August 2000 and plans to unveil a new one later this year.
Nissan, Japan??™s second-biggest automaker, took the ninth and 10th places with the Tiida and Note compact cars, respectively.
Honda??™s Stepwagon minivan fell out of the top 10 for the first time since it was revamped in May 2005. Sales of the 14th-ranked car slumped 30% to 4,202 units.
