| The Sylphy model - sounds contagious. Also called Pulsar & Sentra |
Nissan is truly an international brand. Only 19% of it's production was in Japan. Volumes dropped there too due to transferring production of the Rogue model from there to the USA, where a corresponding increase occurred. UK car making was down slightly readying the plant for the new Qashqai. China had a good run with the Sylphy, Tiida, Qashqai and Teana but no explanations were given for other plants.
The total increase of 1.3% was not bad thanks to China, but 2014 should be a better year. Thanks to Nissan for the data.
