Nissan sets up new unit to boost Nismo road car business

Nissan has set up a new unit to expand its Nismo road car business by making a greater range of models available to customers in more markets.

The company plans to expand the range of Nismo road cars to new segments, market them more globally and boost the lineup in existing markets, including Japan, North America, Europe and the Middle East. This will help increase sales of Nismo cars, which are now about 15,000 units a year.

Nissan introduced the Nismo brand to its mainstream model lineup in 2013 to bring customers more innovations and excitement. Featuring performance and styling developed through Nismo's motorsports activities, the cars offer a sporty driving experience combined with Nissan's quality, reliability and durability.

Nismo road cars introduced so far include the GT-R, Fairlady Z, Juke, Note, Sentra and Patrol.

The new business unit will also work with Nissan Motorsports International on marketing. This includes showing Nismo road cars at Nissan dealerships and showrooms and holding events and activities for Nismo car owners.
