Additionally, the business lowered its 2024 operational profit projections by 70%.

The company decreased its outlook for the second time this year.

Makoto Uchida, the CEO of Nissan, stated.

“To become leaner and more resilient, Nissan will restructure its business.”

According to the corporation, other senior executives will also receive compensation reductions, and Mr. Uchida’s monthly salary will be halved.

Due to the inability of many Western competitors to keep up.

China has emerged as the world’s largest producer of electric automobiles.

According to China-based auto industry analyst Mark Rainford.

Nissan, like many Japanese car companies.

Has been very slow to the electrified vehicle party in China and this is evident in their results.”

To construct three different electric car models at their Sunderland factory.

The company announced that in addition to the next generation of the electric Leaf.

Which is now manufactured at the plant, it will also construct electric Qashqai and Juke models there.
