Key Highlights
  • The car manufacturing market encompasses passenger cars, which are defined as motor vehicles equipped with at least four wheels, designed primarily for the transportation of passengers. These vehicles typically accommodate no more than eight seats, including the driver's seat. This market includes petrol, diesel, electric, and hybrid passenger cars. The market encompasses a broad spectrum of vehicle types, such as mini, small, medium, large, exclusive, and luxury cars, along with mini, compact, mid and full-size SUVs/crossovers. Additionally, it encompasses compact, small and large MPVs, as well as mini, compact, mid and full-size pickups. Sport coupe cars are also included within the scope. Light or heavy commercial vehicles e.g., vans or heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) are excluded from the market scope.
  • The Japanese car manufacturing industry recorded revenues of $95.6 billion in 2024, representing a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.4% between 2019 and 2024.
  • Industry production volumes declined with a negative CAGR of 2.9% between 2019 and 2024, reaching a total of 7,127.1 thousand units in 2024.
  • The Japanese car manufacturing volume in 2024 was affected by challenges in international markets, particularly due to increased competition and trade barriers. In the United States, the imposition of a 25% import tariff on foreign-built cars led companies like Nissan to reduce production of models such as the Rogue SUV at their Japanese plants.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
