Nissan’s profit zoomed up more than 10-fold in July-September from a year earlier, boosted by a weak Japanese yen and strong vehicle sales around the world. The Japanese automaker, allied with Renault SA of France, reported a 190.7 billion yen ($1.3 billion) profit in the last quarter, up from 17.4 billion yen the year before. Quarterly sales surged 25% to 3.15 trillion yen ($20.9 billion), the company said Thursday.
However, they’re still behind in their EV effort, they’re even behind than Toyota and Honda.
Ayria and outdated Leaf aren’t enough them to catch other competitors.
Are you sure? Ariya is looking good?
I like it, it looks pretty cool in person.
They have the best-selling EV in Japan right now, the Sakura.
As it stands, they’re ahead of Honda and Toyota. Those companies will eventually catch up, but they have the funds to do so.
They plan a new Leaf (small crossover) and 2 EV sedans in 2025 as 2026 model years, and 2 EV crossovers in 2027 and 2028. This is because they’re transforming Canton plant into their EV hub so they can qualify for IRA. With those efforts, they also plan on bringing a e-Power Rogue (X-Trail) to the States.
Bad take, my guy. Ariya is quite nice.
