Nissan will exit van segment next year

摘要

Nissan confirmed last week it will stop making its NV commercial vans in North America next summer. The decision will eliminate production at Nissan's plants in Canton, Miss., and Cuernavaca, Mexico. Automotive News reported Nissan's plans to pull out of the segment in June, as Nissan management considered products to eliminate in an effort to restore profitability. Nissan's foray into the North American commercial van market began with aggressive plant investments shortly after the Great Recession as the company sought to expand the Nissan brand.
