To this day, however, Japan still has the highest concentration of automakers of any country on earth: nine to be exact. Three, however, are real standouts producing not only high quality vehicles but reaching well beyond Japan to all corners of the planet. Let’s take a look at the top three and how they are impacting the North American market.

The Secret To Getting The Best Car Lease Deal
When you lease an automobile, you are paying for the depreciation from the final sale price to the residual value once your lease term is finished. Aside from your money factor and residual value, the “capitalized cost” is one of the main variables of the auto lease that controls what your monthly payment will be and if you’ll get the best deal.

  1. 9 Japanese Automakers

    • Toyota - The second largest automaker in the world is Toyota, maker of the Camry, the Corolla, and a host of SUVs, trucks, passenger cars, and a van.
    • Honda - The Accord and the Civic are Honda’s two most well known models, followed by the Odyssey minivan, the Ridgeline truck, the Element, and several other passenger vehicles.
    • Nissan - Drive a Datsun and then decide. Up until the early 1980s, Nissan’s North American nameplate was Datsun, but was switched to Nissan to give it a more global name.
    • Mitsubishi - Originally imported exclusively by Chrysler, Mitsubishi began to sell cars under its own name in the 1980s.
    • Mazda - The Tribute, Miata, and the “6″ are some of the most well known Mazda models.
    • Subaru - Think all wheel drive and you may just think Subaru. The Forester, Outback, and Legacy are all top selling Subaru models.
    • Suzuki - 20% owned by General Motors, Suzuki is as noted for producing cars as it is for manufacturing motorcycles.
    • Isuzu - Did someone say General Motors? Again, GM owns a stake in Isuzu.
    • Daihatsu - The Charade and Rocky were two models introduced by Daihatsu when the car company started selling vehicles in North America in 1988.
