Japanese compact car market trends
Overview
In September 2026, the Japanese compact car market featured various discount trends. The Mazda2 offered a target discount of 250,000 yen, though new orders had ceased, leaving only existing stock. Other models like the Nissan Note Aura and Subaru Levorg provided discounts of 220,000 yen, while the Toyota Yaris offered 150,000 yen despite delivery delays exceeding six months.
By October 2026, specific trends for Mazda models became clearer. Following the end of Mazda2 production in late August 2026, the 6-speed manual transmission model sold out, and remaining stock was expected to deplete quickly. Buyers were advised to seek total discounts exceeding 300,000 yen when including accessories. Meanwhile, the Mazda 3 Fastback remained available for custom orders with delivery times of one to two months, with recommended target discounts of 200,000 yen.
