Nissan Annual Report 2003
28
In Spain, Nissan invested €400 million
into its Nissan Motor Ibérica SA plants for
the production of a 4x4 SUV and Pickup,
as well as a new 2.5-liter common rail
diesel engine. This investment is part of
Nissan’s strategy to develop its Zona
Franca plant in Barcelona as a 4x4 and
light commercial vehicle hub.
Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd., founded in
2003 by Nissan and Dongfeng Motor
Corporation of China, successfully became
the first joint Sino-foreign full-line vehicle
manufacturer. The new Sunny sedan,
released in July 2003, was the first
Nissan-branded model produced by the
company; this will be followed by six new
models by 2006. One of the plants
supporting this is the Guangzhou Huadu
Plant, which has an annual production
capacity of 150,000 units. The goal is to
establish Dongfeng as a globally
competitive automobile manufacturer.
