1. Domestic Production

2. Overseas production
The overseas production volume was below the figure for the same month last year, down 32.3% on April 2006. Reduced production of the Mazda6, among other models, led to the result, despite steady production of the Mazda3.

II. Domestic sales

The domestic sales volume was below the figure for the same month last year, down 10.4% compared to April 2006. This result mainly reflects fewer sales of commercial vehicles and the Mazda5, although sales of the Mazda3 were brisk.
Mazda’s registered vehicle market share was 5.5%, down 0.2 points over April 2006, with a 2.8% share of the micro-mini segment (up 0.2 points) and a 4.4% total market share, down 0.1 points over the same month last year.

III. Exports

Exports in April 2007 were 4.9% below the figure for the same month last year. The result was mainly due to fewer exports of the CX-7, despite healthy exports of the Mazda3 and other models.
Exports to Europe were particularly healthy, reaching 17,386 units (up 4.6% year-on-year), mainly due to an increased export volume of the Mazda3.
