Statement on Nissan Projects in India

Nissan is committed to establishing a local manufacturing presence in India as part of our global growth strategy. Nissan is in active discussions with Renault and Mahindra concerning a new industrial partnership and will make a final decision within four months.

In consequence, we will not continue our discussions with Suzuki concerning a new industrial project in India. As previously announced, we continue to work with Suzuki concerning the OEM supply from India of a new small car for sale mainly in Europe.
