Japan is the world's third largest market in term of vehicle production after China and the United States. The country produced 9.4 million vehicles in 2013 compared with 22.1 million in China and 11.1 million in the United States. Vehicle production in Japan has declined in the past few years as Japanese automakers have intensified focus on overseas expansion and reduced dependence on the domestic market to cater global demand. Japan was the world second largest vehicle producing country until 2010. However in 2011, the United States, which has been recording strong recovery in vehicle production since the beginning of this decade, overtook Japan as the second largest market.

This second edition report provides an overview of the macro economic situation in Japan. The report examines government incentives and outlook and provides an overview of the automotive industry and supply chain including 2013 production data, forecasts and export destinations. Furthermore, the report analyses the structure of the automotive industry in Japan and investments by automotive suppliers.
