At one of the Nissan factories in Japan, another brand can “register”

The Japanese company is negotiating with the Taiwanese Foxconn on the launch of the production of its electric cars at the Nissan Oppama plant in Canagava. It is reported by Nikkei Asia with reference to insider sources. Foxconn has long been making plans to launch its electric car line and needs production facilities, and the Nissan plant can thus be saved from closing.

The Nissan Oppama plant can fall the victim of a plan for a business restructuring, declared by the new CEO of the company Ivan Espinoza. He announced the closure of 17 production sites around the world and reducing the staff of employees by 15 percent in order to save.

If Nissan allows Foxconn to put its electric cars on the conveyor, enterprise and 3900 jobs will be saved, sources say. Nissan called information about a possible transaction not based on an official statement, but did not refute it either.

The Nissan Oppama plant, opened in 1961, became one of the heydays of the heyday of the company and for a long time wore the title of “maternal factory” Nissan. In 2010, the production of Leaf, the first electric car of the brand for the mass market, and then modern hybrids started there. Now Note and Note aura are coming from the conveyor.

As for Foxconn, she showed her first developments in the new automobile sphere in 2022.
