Nissan Motor India Private Ltd announced its sales of 1,588 units in the month of May 2011 compared to 56 units of CBUs in May 2010.
The Micra compact hatchback – the first model to be produced at Nissan’s Chennai plant – is driving this sales boost and accounted 1566 units in May 2011. The X-TRAIL lifestyle SUV, Teana sedan and iconic 370Z sports car comprised the remaining sales.
Since it went on sale last July 2010, Nissan has already sold over 14,711 Micras in India until April 2011, and it continues to be exported to world markets. Last month South Africa became the latest market to launch the Indian-produced hatch.
NMIPL Managing Director & CEO, Mr Kiminobu Tokuyama said: “Our domestic sales performance in May is very encouraging and demonstrates Nissan’s long-term commitment to sustainably increase our presence within the Indian market.
“This is being supported by the locally-produced Micra, together with the rapid expansion of our dealer network which is continuing across all regions.”
