Nissan to drive in 9 cars by 2012


Outlining an aggressive plan, Nissan Motors India managing director and CEO Kiminobu Tokuyama said the company will have nine car models in

India by 2012, five made in India and the remaining to be imported from Japan.

Speaking to reporters at the inauguration of a Nissan Motor dealership here, Mr Tokuyama explained they already have three of the four cars that will comprise the CBU import line up. These are the Teana sedan, the X Trail spoprts utility vehicle and the sports car 370Z.

The five made-in-India cars will comprise the compact hatchback, which will be launched from the Chennai plant in May, followed by its sedan version next year and three models based on V, Nissan’s new global compact car platform.

This is a platform that Renault, the French car maker with a stake in Nissan Motors, will share with Nissan Motors.
