Auto market expression: Japanese cars involved parts fault Korean cars increased momentum

It has been two months since the March 11 Great Earthquake in Japan. Due to the series of impacts caused by the earthquake and the nuclear power plant crisis, the world has already experienced the shock, especially in the automotive industry. If we say that we can still eat inventories in March, and the problem of spare parts has not yet fully manifested, then in April it will be time for various problems to emerge.

Japan Market: Plunging to a Half-Dozen Decline Obviously, according to the Japanese automobile sales data released by the Japan Automobile Dealers Association on May 2, the sales of new cars in Japan fell by 51.0% in April compared with the same period of last year, and the sharp decline in sales was mainly attributed to Japan’s 3.11. The impact of supply chain disruption after the devastating earthquake and tsunami.

The association stated that this drop has set the highest number since the association began counting such data in 1968. The biggest drop before that was 45.1% in 1974, which was mainly influenced by the fluctuation of oil prices.

Even the owners of South Korean auto companies can't stop pride: Please don't call Japan and South Korea car companies, but call Han-Japanese car companies.

The 3·11 earthquake was a heavy blow to Japanese cars, but it was an opportunity for Korean cars. According to statistics released by the top five automakers in South Korea, the global auto sales of Korean automakers reached 582,000 in April, a year-on-year increase of 39.1%.
