| Sales of Honda's 2011 Accord are falling sharply in Canada to competitors |
Combined July sales of 8,818 units by the Honda and Acura divisions represented a 24 per cent decrease over last year's sales. The Honda Automobile Division reported July sales of 7,654 units, down 25 per cent from last year. The Acura Division reported July sales of 1,164 units, down 19 per cent over last year. "Our July sales results reflect the full impact of the disaster that struck Japan in March, but now that the worst is behind us, we fully expect that the situation will improve significantly over the coming months," said Jerry Chenkin, executive vice president of Honda Canada Inc. "Once again, we apologize to our valued customers as we work hard to recover from this very difficult period."
