Hi I'm Inoue.
The Honda Insight was mad available in February of this year and it has
enjoyed strong sales so far. And what about the original Hybrid? There
are 110,000 orders for the 2010 model Prius. It looks like it will sell
very well when it arrives in the fall. It is nice to finally hear some
some good news about the car industry!
Unfortunately, these two cars are the only good story in the industry
right now. Sales of cars have suddenly and drastically dropped and will
not quickly get better. “Now is the time to own a car” rings true I guess.
Also, hybrids have not really spread across other countries yet. One of
the reasons for that is the use of the rechargeable batters. For the
first generation Prius batteries cost 300,000JPY but in Japan we can
replace the batteries for free. For people in other countries the
batteries could easily become more expensive than the car.
The other day a customer bought an old and beat up hybrid just to export
the battery. If it can become less expensive for overseas customers to
purchase batteries than I think that Hybrids will become more popular
overseas.
The last thing I would like to mention is that this in Crystal Net
Auction we offered some cars from Korea. We now have a good partnership
with a dealer in Korea so we have access to thousands of cars there.
Many of these cars are Japanese (Toyota, Mazda, Nissan, etc.) but they
are left-hand drive cars. If you are interested in these please let us
know and we will be happy to help you out

Hi, I'm Inoue!!
Mitsubishi’s new electric car, the i-MiVE, will soon be released in
Japan. Yesterday on the news it was said that charging stations will be
available at convenience stores.
It feels like if the right infrastructure is in place than electric
vehicles will be successful. If that is true then 2009 could be the year
in Japan and across the world that electric vehicles really take off.
But, it will take some time before electric vehicles will be easy for
everyone to use. In particular, if the country does not take the lead in
preparing the infrastructure than success will not be so easy.
Across the world people are still using cars that are over 10 years old.
If these cars are will taken care of then these cars can still be driven
with no problems.
It is certainly good for the environment to keep these cars running as
long as possible, but it becomes essential to have the right parts
available to keep those cars on the road.
Especially with older cars it is becoming impossible to find some parts
from the manufacturers. In these cases it is necessary to buy an old
used car in order to obtain the parts. It is also much cheaper to buy
and dismantle a car then to buy the parts from the manufacturer.
Dismantling for parst is something that Crystal Group does for many
customers and if you compare our dismantling charges to other companies
you will find that we are cheaper. If you are interested in learning
more about our dismantling capabilities then please contact your sales manager.
