1. Domestic Production
The domestic production volume for November 2007 is up 12.5% over the same month last year due to increased production of the Mazda CX-7 and Mazda CX-9 and added production of the Mazda2 (known as the Demio in Japan) for the European market.

Mazda2 (Demio):	16,877 units (up 290.9% year-on-year)

CX-7:	8,414 units (up 54.5% year-on-year)
CX-9:	3,721 units

2. Overseas production
Although overseas production of the Mazda6 and Mazda3 was steady, overall overseas production volume decreased 10.8% year-on-year, mainly due to a decrease caused by the Familia and Premacy production in China being attributed to FAW Haima, which has established its own brand.

Mazda6 (Atenza):	12,003 units (up 20.9% year-on-year)
Mazda3 (Axela):	3,978 units (up 210.1% year-on-year)
