Nissan has announced it will invest up to 1.12 billion pounds in Sunderland, England, to produce electric versions of its two best-selling cars, the Juke and Qashqai, to support jobs.
This investment covers R&D and manufacturing and may trigger greater infrastructure and supply chain investment, including new electric vehicle battery factories, with a total investment of up to 2 billion pounds.
Nissan President Makoto Uchida said electric vehicles are at the core of plans to achieve carbon neutrality. The UK hopes to play a leading role in electric vehicle manufacturing, and British Prime Minister Sunak said this is an important trust in the British auto industry.
