The Tochigi Plant exclusively produces luxury and sports cars, such as the CIMA, NISSAN GT-R, and FAIRLADY Z. The Guest Hall has a NISSAN GT-R and various other models on display, feel free to climb inside.
Notice: The Tochigi Plant will soon undergo renovations to construct new facilities for the future.
Therefore, we unfortunately will not be able to provide tours of the production lines due to construction work and production adjustments.
