Nissan dan Dongfeng Tubuh Syarikat Baharu Bangunkan SUV Off-Road di China

Nissan mengukuhkan kedudukannya dalam pasaran SUV China melalui kerjasama terbaharu dengan Dongfeng Motor Group. Kedua-dua syarikat ini bakal menubuhkan sebuah entiti baharu dengan pelaburan sekitar RM676 juta, khusus untuk membangunkan serta menjual SUV off-road.

Berdasarkan butiran yang didedahkan, Dongfeng Motor akan memegang pegangan terbesar sebanyak 40%, manakala Dongfeng Nissan – usaha sama sedia ada antara kedua-dua syarikat dengan perkongsian 50:50 – akan memiliki kira-kira 10%.

Dua lagi syarikat berpangkalan di Xiangyang, wilayah Hubei turut menyertai projek ini. Perjanjian kerjasama ini ditetapkan untuk tempoh 20 tahun, namun nama rasmi syarikat baharu serta tarikh pelancaran model pertama masih belum diumumkan.

Sumbangan Dongfeng Nissan dijangka lebih tertumpu kepada aset berbanding tunai. Ini termasuk acuan, barisan pengeluaran, peralatan industri, sistem pembangunan serta sumber tidak ketara lain. Malah, terdapat kemungkinan Dongfeng Nissan akan terlibat secara langsung dalam pengeluaran kenderaan sebaik sahaja operasi dimulakan.

Nissan and Dongfeng Pump RM676 Million into New Off-Road SUV Venture

Nissan is strengthening its position in China’s SUV market with a fresh collaboration alongside Dongfeng Motor Group. Together, they will be investing around RM676 million into a new company dedicated to building and selling off-road SUVs.

According to details released, Dongfeng Motor will take the largest share at 40%, while Dongfeng Nissan – the existing 50:50 joint venture between the two companies – will secure roughly 10%. Two other companies based in Xiangyang, Hubei province, are also set to participate. The agreement will run for 20 years, although the new firm’s official name and the timing for its first product launches remain under wraps.

Dongfeng Nissan’s share of the contribution is expected to come mostly in the form of assets rather than cash. This includes dies, production lines, and other equipment, along with development systems and intangible resources. There is also the possibility that Dongfeng Nissan could play a direct role in vehicle production once the new company is operational.

Nissan Navara X-Tremer Launches in Malaysia with Bold New Look and Enhanced Features

Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM) has opened bookings for the New Nissan Navara X-Tremer, a pickup engineered to thrive both on city streets and in the rough. Marketed as more than just an update, the X-Tremer is being positioned as a statement of rugged capability and expressive style.

The Navara X-Tremer continues to deliver the model’s well-known toughness but now comes with sharper visual distinction. The front end wears a new black grille paired with an X-formation bumper cladding, while carbon fibre-look fender garnishes and black over-fenders further enhance its muscular stance. At the rear, a new shark fin antenna, a redesigned black bumper, and a bold tailgate decal make the truck instantly recognisable and set it apart from the standard Navara range.

Inside, Nissan has introduced a number of updates designed to blend durability with comfort. A soft-touch dashboard with double stitching, a modernised centre console and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with a smooth-grain finish lift the overall cabin ambience. Technology plays a key role too, with an 8-inch infotainment screen supporting Android Auto and Apple CarPlay to ensure seamless connectivity. Seating has also been improved with stain-resistant QUOLE MODURE upholstery, designed to minimise heat build-up, while the Zero Gravity front seats continue to provide long-distance comfort and reduced fatigue.

Nissan Tamatkan Pengeluaran R35 GT-R Selepas 18 Tahun

Selepas hampir dua dekad berada di pasaran, Nissan secara rasmi menamatkan pengeluaran model R35 GT-R, menutup tirai kepada salah sebuah kereta prestasi moden paling ikonik. Unit terakhir yang dihasilkan ialah Midnight Purple Premium Edition T-Spec, yang keluar dari barisan pengeluaran di Jepun, satu-satunya pasaran terakhir bagi model ini.

Ikon Supercar Sejak 2007

Dilancarkan pada tahun 2007, R35 GT-R segera muncul sebagai simbol kejuruteraan Jepun dan prestasi tulen. Sepanjang tempoh 18 tahun pengeluarannya, kira-kira 48,000 unit telah dibina tanpa melalui reka bentuk semula sepenuhnya, sebaliknya menerima penambahbaikan berterusan.

Farewell to a Legend: Nissan R35 GT-R Production Ends After 18 Years

After nearly two decades, Nissan has officially brought an end to production of the R35 GT-R, marking the close of an era for one of the most iconic performance cars of modern times. The final assembly for the Japanese domestic market, the last region where the model remained on sale, has now concluded, drawing the curtain on a remarkable 18-year run.

Since its global debut in 2007, the R35 GT-R has stood as a symbol of cutting-edge engineering and relentless performance, capturing the imagination of enthusiasts and setting new benchmarks in the supercar world. Over its lifespan, approximately 48,000 units were produced, with the very last car, a Premium Edition T-Spec finished in the famed Midnight Purple, destined for a customer in Japan.

The final send-off took place at Nissan’s Tochigi plant, where workers gathered to celebrate the GT-R’s enduring legacy as the last example rolled off the line. The R35’s history, however, is far from a conventional one. Instead of following the industry’s typical model lifecycle, Nissan opted for continuous evolution, with year-on-year refinements that sharpened performance, comfort, and technology. Whether in standard form, the luxurious variants, or the ferocious NISMO editions, every update aimed to push the envelope a little further.

Nissan dan Honda Mungkin Jalin Kerjasama di A.S., Bangunkan Pikap Baharu Bersama

Nissan dilaporkan sedang mempertimbangkan untuk menghidupkan semula kapasiti pengeluarannya yang tidak aktif di Amerika Syarikat melalui satu kemungkinan kerjasama strategik bersama Honda. Laporan industri terkini mencadangkan bahawa Nissan sedang dalam perbincangan untuk menghasilkan trak pikap bagi pihak Honda, dengan kilang Nissan di Canton, Mississippi muncul sebagai lokasi utama yang berpotensi untuk pelaksanaan projek ini.

Sekiranya perjanjian ini menjadi kenyataan, ia boleh menandakan satu langkah pemulihan penting bagi operasi Nissan di Amerika Utara, yang sebelum ini telah mengalami penguncupan ketara susulan kerugian kewangan yang besar. Syarikat itu baru-baru ini mencatat kerugian bersih sebanyak AS$4.5 bilion dalam tahun fiskal terakhir, mendorong mereka untuk menilai semula kapasiti pembuatan dan merancang pengurangan dalam pengeluaran masa hadapan di rantau berkenaan.

Perbincangan mengenai kerjasama antara dua gergasi automotif Jepun ini bukanlah sesuatu yang mengejutkan. Pada awal tahun ini, khabar angin mengenai kemungkinan penggabungan antara Honda dan Nissan telah menimbulkan spekulasi hangat dalam industri. Kedua-dua syarikat juga dilaporkan terbuka untuk berkongsi sumber bagi menjayakan pelbagai usaha sama. Salah satu cadangan yang muncul adalah penggunaan platform badan atas rangka (body-on-frame) Nissan oleh Honda untuk membolehkan syarikat itu memperluas kehadiran dalam pasaran trak pikap A.S., yang sangat kompetitif.

Nissan Eyes U.S. Production Boost as Talks Emerge Over Honda Pickup Collaboration

Nissan may be on the brink of revitalising dormant manufacturing capacity in the United States, as reports suggest the company is in discussions to build a pickup truck for Honda. Although no official sources were cited, speculation points to Nissan’s Canton plant in Mississippi as a likely candidate for the potential production agreement.

This development could represent a major turnaround for Nissan’s North American operations, which have been significantly downsized in response to steep financial losses. The Japanese automaker recently reported a staggering net loss of $4.5 billion in its most recent fiscal year, prompting the company to scale back both current output and future manufacturing projections across the region.

Rumblings of a collaboration between the two Japanese giants are not new. Earlier this year, when speculation of a possible merger between Honda and Nissan gained traction, both firms acknowledged the prospect of sharing resources. Among the potential joint ventures discussed was the use of Nissan’s body-on-frame platforms by Honda to expand its presence in the U.S. truck segment.

At present, Honda’s only pickup offering for the American market is the Ridgeline, a unibody model. Nissan, on the other hand, manufactures the Frontier — a body-on-frame truck — at the Canton facility. Honda currently lacks a comparable vehicle in its line-up, raising the possibility that the automaker could be considering a significant shift in platform architecture for future pickup models.
