Atsugi, March 25: Nissan Motors, a Japanese automobile manufacturer, is popular with its SUVs, sports vehicles, 4X4s, and commercial vehicles in the world. A report said that the company will launch 30 new models in the coming three years to boost global sales. By launching 30 new models, Nissan Motors is said to increase its global sales by 1 million vehicles to improve its profit and cut costs.
Reuters reported that Japan’s third-largest automobile company would target an operating profit margin of over 6% by March 2027, at the end of the financial year. The report also mentioned that Nissan Motors would expect over 30% shareholder returns.
