Nissan outlines LCV growth
Nissan will launch 13 new light commercial vehicles before the end of 2012 in a bid to meet five-year global growth plans.
Carlos Ghosn, Nissan president and CEO, said he wanted LCV revenue to double by 2012 compared to 2007 and wanted top level customer satisfaction performance globally by 2012.
The targets will be helped by the start of Nissan LCV sales in growing markets like Russia, China and India which will start in 2010.
In the 2007 financial year Nissan sold 519,703 LCVs worldwide. The NP300 pickup truck (also sold as the Frontier in selected markets) was the best-selling individual Nissan LCV with 71,678 units.
China was the market with the largest portion of LCV sales (151,088 units) followed by Japan (121,790 units).
