Japanese cars have a deserved reputation for delivering small cars with good mileage.
The rise in oil prices have been a boon for Japanese companies.
Honda's Civic compact and Odyssey minivan saw sales jump 7.5% worldwide to 3.93 million units.
Mazda's Demio subcompact and RX-8 sportscar sold 1.36 million cars globally - up 4.7%. Estimates are for a 9% increase in sales this year.
Mitsubishi sold 1.4 million vehicles globally - up 10%. Mitsubishi offers the Pajero and Outlander SUVs.
Can you say $5.00/gallon?
