Former Russian Nissan Russian Plant reduces production by 2.5 times

According to the newspaper Vedomosti, the Automobile Plant St. Petersburg-under such a sign, the enterprise operates after the Nissan from Russia departure-in 2025 will produce a little more than 6.5 thousand cars. This is 2.5 times less compared to the actual volume of production for 2024, when 16.5 thousand cars were produced. Currently, two Xcite brand models are leaving the conveyor of the plant, these are X-Cross 7 and X-Cross 8 crossovers.

In the past year, the enterprise also produced fewer cars than it was planned: the original production plan provided for the production of 25 thousand cars, then the bar was lowered to 20 thousand, and in fact 16.5 thousand pieces were collected. One of the reasons why the St. Petersburg Automobile Plant in 2025 will produce 2.5 times less cars, there may be low XCite sales-according to Avtostat-Info, a little more than 5 were sold in the country, for the whole vulgar year, 5 thousand of these cars.

AvtoVAZ commented on the plans for the transfer of the ISKRA conveyor from Togliatti the figure of the day: how many cars were produced by the former Russian plant Nissan, the head of AvtoVAZ replied, what was the connection between LADA and Xsite brands

The source of Vedomosti in the government did not rule out that the St. Petersburg enterprise could load the conveyor by launching a new product. This is also confirmed by rumors that appeared earlier: supposedly the “Automobile Plant St. Petersburg” is preparing for the modernization “aimed at establishing the production of other models.” It was assumed that one of them could become Lada ISKRA, but in AvtoVAZ they said that “at the moment, the release of cars at the former Nissan plant is not planned.”

In turn, the factory previously reported that it can very quickly increase production volumes, but so far it is inappropriate. The maximum volume of “screwdriver” assembly is about 50-60 thousand per year, and does not plan to switch to the small -sized site yet.
