Mitsubishi Motors says 600 cars potentially damaged in Tianjin port blast


BEIJING (Reuters) - About 600 of Mitsubishi Motors Corp's <7211.T> imported cars may have been damaged from last week's massive explosions in the Chinese port city of Tianjin that killed more than 100 people, the automaker's China sales subsidiary said.

The Japanese automaker has no means to confirm the damage as the area surrounding the blast is closed off, Mitsubishi Motor Sales (China) Co Ltd said in statement on its website on Friday. The firm is already adjusting the allocation of imported cars from the ports of Shanghai and Dalian to dealers to minimize any impact on customers, it said.
