Car maker Nissan Motor India is buoyant about the export market and
plans to ship out over 8,000 Datsun and 65,000 Sunny cars till next
year, said a top official of Renault Nissan Alliance India Pvt Ltd
(RNAIPL).
He also dismissed speculations about Nissan phasing out the Datsun brand.
"We
will be exporting over 8,000 units of Datsun GO CVT and GO+ CVT this
year and plans are there to ship out similar numbers next year as well,"
Biju Balendran, Managing Director & CEO, RNAIPL told IANS.
"In
January/February 2020, Datsun Redi GO with BS VI complaint engine will
be launched. It will have an entirely new look and a sizeable investment
has been made for that," Balendran said.
On Sunny export numbers
he said: "We began this year with a plan to export about 22,000 Sunny.
And, the order has grown to over 65,000. A similar number is expected
next year."
Nissan India ships out its cars, engine and
components to the Middle East, South Africa, Egypt, Indonesia, Brazil,
Egypt, Sub Saharan countries and Nepal.
According to Balendran, exports of Nissan's sports utility vehicle (SUV) have also begun.
Queried
about the higher exports out of India, Balendran said the Indian plant
is very cost competitive as compared to other plants and the markets
served by the company are also doing well in the respective segments.
The slowdown in automobile industry in India did not seem to have affected RNAIPL.
Balendran
said last year RNAIPL had rolled out 1,82,000 units and this year the
production numbers is expected to be about 2,10,000 owing to the strong
export orders.
