Toyota sales in China rising again

Toyota (TM.NYSE, 7203.TYO) sales in China rose for a third month to the highest level in 2013, Bloomberg reported, citing a statement made by Toyota on Monday. Deliveries to China rose 41% to 89,800 vehicles in November, raising the 11-month total to 809,000 units. Toyota posted its first annual sales declines in China last year following riots there over the Japanese purchase of disputed islands. A resurfacing of the dispute at the end of November could impact on December sales of Japanese autos.
