Toyota sales decline slows

Toyota Motor Corp's China sales fell by the least in three months as a boycott of Japanese brands, triggered by tensions between the two countries, subsided.

Deliveries declined 22 percent in November from a year earlier to 63,800 vehicles, Asia's largest automaker said on Monday. The decline compares with a 49 percent drop in September and a 44 percent slump in October.

Last month, the automaker said sales in China were recovering. Deliveries in the first 11 months of the year fell 3.3 percent to 749,600 units, setting Toyota on course for its first annual decline in China sales on record.
