Gasgoo.com (Shanghai July 24) - Japanese automobile manufacturers saw their sales in China fall dramatically last autumn, when tensions began escalating between China and Japan regarding the disputed Diaoyu Islands, leading to a consumer backlash against Japanese branded products. After nearly a year, Japanese manufacturers are finally starting to see their sales recover, with several of them reporting positive year-on-year sales growth rates this May. Their performances look to improve even more in the coming months. As a report appearing on chinanews.com today reveals, several new Japanese models will be making their market debuts before long.
