1. Domestic Production
The domestic production volume for November 2007 is up 12.5% over the same month last year due to increased production of the Mazda CX-7 and Mazda CX-9 and added production of the Mazda2 (known as the Demio in Japan) for the European market.

| Mazda2 (Demio): |
16,877 units (up 290.9% year-on-year) |

| CX-9: |

2. Overseas production
Although overseas production of the Mazda6 and Mazda3 was steady, overall overseas production volume decreased 10.8% year-on-year, mainly due to a decrease caused by the Familia and Premacy production in China being attributed to FAW Haima, which has established its own brand.

12,003 units (up 20.9% year-on-year) |
