『新車販売台数、2年ぶりに300万台…2011年度』

日本自動車販売協会連合会が発表した2011年度(2011年4月~12年3月)の新車登録台数(軽除く)は前年度比3.1%増の306万4336台となり、2年ぶりに300万台を上回った。

東日本大震災によるサプライチェーン寸断による影響で新車の生産・供給が滞り、年度前半は大幅に落ち込んだものの、部品調達の正常化で生産が急回復した。加えてエコカー補助金の復活で需要が急増、前年を上回った。

New Car Sales for FY2011 reaches 3 Mil., First Time in 2 Years

Japan’s vehicle registration for new cars (excluding mini-vehicles) rose 3.1 percent from the previous year to 3,064,336 units, surpassing a 3 million unit level for the first time in 2 years, according to the FY2011 (April 2011 - March 2012) statistics announced by the Japan Automobile Dealers Association.

Supply and production of new vehicles were slowed because of disrupted automobile supply chain caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake, decreasing the new cars sale significantly in the first half of FY2011. However, as the procurement of components returned to normal, automobile production quickly recovered. The demand for new cars was also increased sharply by the government’s resumed subsidy program for ecologically-friendly cars, giving the sales a better result than the last year.

"New auto sale over 30,000 in 2011 for the 1st time in 2 years"

The Japan Automotive Dealer Association announced that the new vehicle sales in 2011 (from April to December of 2011) are 3064,336 units, up by 3.1% from the previous year. It was the first time in two years it went over 3 million.

While the production of new vehicles drastically went down due to the severed supply chains caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake last year, the normalized supply chains immediately revived the production. In additon to it, the government subsidy for eco cars helped inrease the demand and the sales eventually ended up higher than the previous year.

The amount of sells in 2011 rose to more than 3,000,000. First time in 2 years.

Japan Automobile Dealers Association announced the number of registrations of new cars (except for light cars) in 2011 (April 2011 to March 2012) are 3.1% more than last year, 3,064,336 vehicles. It is first time in 2 years that the number is more than 3,000,000.

Because of the earth quake at east Japan, the supply chain is hacked and production and supply got down. So the first half didn't work well, but with the improvement of getting the parts, the produce got up dramatically. The support money for the ecology car made the more demands and sold more than last year.

貨物車の最終文章での van and pickups を訂正します。貨物車の扱いですので、freight van and pickups が適正な訳と考えます。
