Japanese automakers report mixed half-year results

In the first half of fiscal year 2026-2027, Japanese automakers posted mixed performances: Nissan fell 11.8% worldwide, while Suzuki set a global record (+19.9%), driven by India. Mazda and Mitsubishi showed more modest gains, Daihatsu declined in Japan but grew overseas. The accounts are marked by rising raw material costs and a cooling Chinese market. In Japan, the press details domestic sales and forecasts, notably Mitsubishi's lowered annual target despite a sharp rise in half-year operating profit, and Isuzu's maintained forecasts with a share buyback. In China, attention focuses on the market slowdown.
