Asia's largest automaker

Japan's top three automakers -- Toyota, Nissan and Honda -- all produced record high numbers of vehicles overseas in the past business year through March, due partly to increased production in North America and emerging Asian countries on robust demand, according to data released Wednesday.

Toyota Motor Corp., Asia's largest automaker, produced a record 5.20 million vehicles overseas, up 17.8 percent from the previous year. Toyota group global production -- which includes output by small-car maker Daihatsu Motor Co. and truck-making unit Hino Motors Ltd. -- also hit an all-time high of 9.72 million vehicles, up 13.4 percent.

Nissan Motor Co.'s production outside Japan expanded 2.6 percent to a record 3.73 million vehicles, reflecting a 16.3 percent increased in production in the United States.
