we've had the discussion before about whether hyundai/genesis/kia sales can be considered together (like GM)... since i think it's fair to, we see h/k/g at 35% higher volume than honda/acura. and toyota/lexus is 100% higher!!! 
Motorola, what's the source for that chart?

At this point, it's a test of which manufacturer has the most solid supply chain. I'm not surprised Hyundai-Kia are managing it better than Honda since they have a much larger global presence, while Honda has almost none outside of North America.
I'd like to see Nissan's numbers for last month because so far they've been doing even worse than Honda.
