  • Overseas production significantly increased year-on-year, due to increased production capacity as well as the all-new Impreza’s start of production in November 2016

Sales in Japan

  • Passenger vehicle sales increased year-on-year, led by continued strong demand for the all-new Impreza launched in October 2016.
  • Mini vehicle sales decreased year-on-year due to a decline in the Stella and Pleo sales.

Exports
