Nissan N7 production milestone
On December 11, Nissan officially announced it manufactured the 50,000th N7 electric sedan at the Guangzhou plant in China. The Dongfeng-Nissan joint venture reached this milestone in 7 months and 13 days. The N7’s price range in China is 119,900 – 149,900 yuan (16,970 – 21,220 USD).
The Guangzhou (Huadu) assembly plant is the major production facility of the Dongfeng-Nissan JV, with a peak annual production volume of 600,000 units. It also assembles the brand’s most popular model in China. It is the Sylphy petrol-powered sedan.
Previously, it was reported that the Dongfeng-Nissan JV will export its electric cars to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and other regions starting in 2026. This move mirrors the current challenges the Japanese company faced in recent years.
