Mitsubishi Motors Reports November U.S. Sales
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc., (MMNA) today reported November 2004 U.S. sales of 8,301 units. Mitsubishi Motors has sold 150,458 units year to date in the United States.
"Our sales volume this month, while disappointing, is to be expected while we are in the midst of a turnaround and focused on internal restructuring and reducing fleet," said Michael Tocci, senior vice president of sales, fleet and distribution at Mitsubishi Motors North America. "Regardless, we did see some bright spots this month, with Outlander volume sales up 14 percent and Lancer volume sales up 13 percent over October. As our turnaround moves forward, we're confident that 2005 will be a stronger sales year."
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc., (MMNA) is responsible for all manufacturing, finance, sales, marketing, research and development operations of the Mitsubishi Motors Corporation in the United States and Canada.
