» New Fit (JDM) Top Seller for 7th Consecutive Month |
|
Jul 02, 2008 - 10:31 PM - by jacksan1
|
Japan Automobile Dealers Association has just released the new car sales results in Japan for the month of May 2008. The Fit (JDM - next gen) was the No. 1 seller for the seventh consecutive month, exclusive of the kei class cars. There were 11,461 Fits registered for May '08.
No. 2 was the Corolla (11,377 units - very close!), followed by the Vitz (JDM Yaris, 8,078 units), Toyota Crown (7,797 units), and Toyota Passo (5,755 units).
Out of the top 10, six were Toyota, two were Nissan, and Mazda and Honda (Fit) had one each in Top 10.
Just as a side note, in March 2008, which is usually the biggest month for auto sales in Japan, Honda sold a whopping 25,933 Fits in that month alone, outdistancing the perennial nemesis, the Corolla, by more than 5,000 units.

As they do with most models Thailand has introduced a Jazzed up (pun intended) version if the local Jazz new model.
As you can see in the photos there are a bunch of new body panels and interior mods. The photos of the vents show new CF touches around the vents and dash cluster. The second photo has red highlights on the steering wheel and shifter.
Sorry for the poor photo quality but they are photos of my monthly Mag from my local Honda dealer here.

The winner of the 2007-2008 Japan Car of the Year has just been announced, and it is the new Fit. The Fit beat out Mercedes-Benz C-Class (runner-up) and the Subaru Impreza (third place).
This is the second time the Fit has won the coveted JCOTY, and the first-gen Fit was one of the rare cases in which a JCOTY winner did actually succeed commercially.
