According to a report in the businesses newspaper Nikkei, the Japanese motors group had planned to transfer the operation to Yachiyo, which already builds a number of the company’s minivehicles.
But a spokeswoman today was quoted saying: “There’s no truth to the report.”
Sales of new automobiles have plummeted to record lows recently in Japan. In the month of April, sales fell by 28.6% over the same month last year, to 166,365 vehicles.
However, the 660cc cars have held up better than most.
