NISSAN LCV UNIT TO BEAT VALUE-UP COMMITMENTS ONE YEAR AHEAD

TOKYO (Nov. 14, 2006) -- Following the recent announcement of the first half financial results for the fiscal year 2006, Nissan today reaffirmed that its light commercial vehicles (LCV) business unit plans to achieve its Nissan Value Up commitments � of reaching 434,000 units vehicle sales with 8% consolidated operating profit - one year ahead of forecast in this fiscal year 2006 ending March 31, 2007.

This bullish outlook is supported by the strong performance of the LCV unit this year across all global markets. For the six-month period from April through September 2006, global LCV sales have totalled 242,760 units, accounting for more than half the volume committed in the Value Up business plan initially set for the whole fiscal year 2007.

�The LCV business has been identified as one of the key breakthrough opportunities that will drive Nissan�s growth in terms of volume and profitability for the long-term. We are recognized as an important contributor to Nissan�s overall success as per the Nissan Value Up business plan,� said Andy Palmer, Corporate Vice President of Nissan�s LCV Business Unit.

�Our solid performance so far has been fuelled by improvements in our distribution network and leveraging on global efficiencies. With an aggressive product offensive next in the pipeline, we are confident of taking the LCV business onto a more accelerated growth period, in addition to expanding our product penetration into new emerging markets,� added Palmer.

For fiscal year 2006, Nissan will introduce a record three new LCV products. In the second half, it will launch a successor to AD-van in Japan, which is expected to consolidate Nissan�s stronghold in the domestic small van market. The AD Van follows the introduction of the Cabstar light duty truck in Europe last September.

Nissan Navara forced to retire after impressive performance at Baja Espana --Round 2 of 2006 FIA International Cross-country Cup for Baja--

The second round of FIA International Cross-Country Cup for Baja was held on 20-23 July around Spanish capital, Madrid. Current leaders of the Spanish All Terrain Rally Championship and of the FIA Baja Cup, Marc Bl?zquez and Lucas Cruz had to retire from the Baja Espa?a event while heading for victory.

On SS1, in the first hour in the morning, driving their Nissan Navara T1, Marc Bl?zquez and Lucas Cruz rolled off the podium located in front of the Madrilenian Stage Santiago Bernabeu. With the advantage of leaving first after their dominance of the previous day�s Superspecial, the pair of Official Nissan Motor Spain team competitors were quickest on the first section of 86 kilometres, which took them to the town of Soria.
After the regroup and Service Park, the Spaniards were again fastest as they drove the 114 kilometres of the next section, to Zaragoza. Without slowing their pace, the Official Nissan Motor Spain team crossed the finish line with an advantage of 8 minutes 35 seconds over the competitor who was classified second, Portugal\'s Carlos Sousa.

Marc Bl?zquez: �I am very satisfied with the result, and I liked the sections very much because I was able to adapt my style of driving to the conditions, allowing me to run very well. In the first section we lost a little time; but in the second, we ran without any problems. I just had to be careful where there were a lot of stones in the road. Compared to the others, the car is working perfectly and now we will review our progress today before resting ahead of the hard stage in the morning.�

For SS2, the stage was run two passes of the same stage layout, totalling 268 kilometres before arriving in Zaragoza in the province of Teruel, following the traditional route of this mythical race.?After a fantastic performance throughout the previous day in which the Official Nissan Motor Spain team dominated all the sections incontestably, Marc Bl?zquez and Lucas Cruz this morning exited on the third day of the Baja Espa?a 2006. With more than eleven minutes\' advantage over their nearest rivals, the strategy of both Spaniards was very clear: to mark a race pace that allowed them to maintain their gap over the rest of the field. The pair managed to do this until kilometer 171 of special number 3, frustration mounting when they were forced to retire due to clutch problems.

After this event, Marc Bl?zquez and Lucas Cruz remain at the head of the leader board in the All-Terrain Spanish Rally Championship. However, for them to take the crown, they will have to run strongly in the next races; being held in Portugal and Cuenca. Marc Bl?zquez: �It has been painful because all the equipment was working perfectly. We have two months to prepare before the next race, and we will work very hard to obtain the best result - as good as any we\'ve obtained during the year\"

The next round of FIA International Cross-Country Cup for Baja,\"Baja Anta de Serrra 500-Portalegle\" will be taken place on 12-15 Oct at Portugal.

NISSAN DEVELOPS NEW GLOBAL LIGHT DUTY TRUCK PLATFORM

TOKYO (July 27, 2006)�Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., has developed a new global platform for light duty trucks (LDTs) on which the new Cabstar, which goes on sale across Europe in September, will be built.

The new LDT platform and a platform for panel vans, will replace Nissan�s 11 unique LCV platforms by 2010 in order to maximize efficiency. Some LCVs will also continue to be built on passenger vehicle platforms.

The new LDT platform was developed by Nissan�s engineering division in Barcelona, Spain in collaboration with Nissan Motor Light Truck Co.�s engineering team in Japan. The platform will support Cabstar first, followed by a new generation of light duty trucks in the future.

�The development and introduction of the new LDT platform demonstrates that Nissan is taking its place in the global commercial vehicle market very seriously. We are ambitious to succeed and we are confident that we will meet the needs of operators and drivers across the globe with the range of products that will be developed on the new platforms,� said Andy Palmer, corporate vice president of Nissan�s LCV Business Unit.

The new Nissan LDT platform will support Cabstar�s award-winning full cabin over engine (COE) configuration, building on the Cabstar�s reputation for excellent balance between load-carrying capacity and in-town manoeuvrability.

�In developing this new platform, we kept our customers in the forefront of our mind and enhanced its ability to support vehicles that provide maximum performance in load capacity, manoeuvrability and cost of ownership,� said Palmer.

Nissan engineers adopted a straight, light, but strong ladder frame design. The combination of COE configuration and a light and durable frame enhances Cabstar�s load performance both in length and weight. This gives the customer the choice between greater load capacity and shorter vehicle length. It also enhances manoeuvrability when driving in cities because it allows operators to carry the same load capacity on a shorter wheelbase.

Due to the Cabstar�s new frame, it will be easier and quicker to operate on the engine during maintenance and repair. This operation is made even easier by the adoption of a tilting cabin configuration. Time off the road will be minimized, allowing maximum efficiency for the customer.

The Cabstar platform has been reinforced to ensure a car-like crash performance. Independent tests have demonstrated that in case of frontal impacts, Cabstar�s safety level is as high as that of a passenger car. Safety was enhanced by reinforcing the front part of the frame and by enhancing the elasticity of the straight elements behind the cabin.

Nissan has set ambitious commitments for its global LCV business, one of four breakthrough areas identified under the company�s Value-Up business plan. By fiscal year 2007, the company plans to double operating profit margin to 8% and grow volumes by 40% to 434,000 units worldwide compared with fiscal 2004.

In fiscal 2005, ended March 31, 2006, the Nissan LCV business sold 400,000 units, up 28% from the previous year. The unit�s consolidated operating profit margin came to 7.7%.

The Cabstar will continue to be manufactured at Nissan�s plant at Avila, near Madrid, Spain.

NISSAN RELEASES ATLAS 20 HYBRID TRUCK IN JAPAN

TOKYO (May 17, 2006)--Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., today released a hybrid version of its Atlas 20 light commercial vehicle in Japan.

Compared with a conventional Atlas 20 diesel-engine model, the Atlas 20 Hybrid achieves a 35% improvement in fuel economy in M15 mode and improvements of 10% to 20% in normal city driving. The vehicle�s CO2 emissions drop by 25% in M15 mode. M15 mode is the standard used in Japan for measuring the fuel efficiency of urban heavy-duty vehicles.

�A growing number of LCV customers are paying more attention to environmental issues,� said Andy Palmer, corporate vice president and head of Nissan�s LCV business unit. �With the Atlas 20 Hybrid, we plan to meet their demands for more environmentally-friendly trucks,� he added.

The Atlas 20 Hybrid employs a power-take-off (PTO) type parallel-drive hybrid system in which the motor/generator is connected to a different drive shaft from the engine for reliable operation. Even if a failure occurs in the hybrid system, the vehicle can still be driven using the diesel engine.

The system uses lithium-ion batteries with a lifespan approximately three times longer than that of nickel metal hybrid batteries. The low weight of the batteries also ensures that there is little impact on the payload of the vehicle.

The Atlas 20 Hybrid features Smoother Autoshift as standard equipment. This automatic shift eliminates any need for clutch adjustment or replacement, dramatically reducing maintenance costs, while preventing failures on the road due to clutch problems.

The Atlas 20 Hybrid, which will be built by Isuzu Motors Ltd. on an original-equipment-manufacturing basis, will use Isuzu�s hybrid system.

Nissan has identified the light commercial vehicles business as one of four breakthrough areas for the company under the Nissan Value-Up three-year business plan, which started in fiscal year 2005. Nissan has set ambitious objectives for the LCV business, which are to double operating profit margin to 8% and grow volumes by 40% to 434,000 units worldwide by fiscal year 2007. In fiscal 2005, Nissan�s LCV business unit sold 400,296 vehicles and posted a consolidated operating profit margin of 7.7%.

Sales goal: 30 units per year

Price range in Tokyo area: 4,793,250 yen to 5,390,700 yen

Newly-Completed Dongfeng Nissan Engine Plant to Produce All-new HR and MR Engines

GUANGZHOU (Feb. 28, 2006)--Dongfeng Nissan Passenger Vehicle Co., Ltd (Dongfeng Nissan), a division of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd.,today announced that its newly-built engine plant in Huadu, Guangzhou will produce two all-new engines.

The new engine plant, which has an annual capacity of 180,000 units, will produce the HR16DE gasoline engine. The MR20DE engine will be added to the production line in the future. The inline, four-cylinder, all-aluminum engines, which were jointly developed by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., and its alliance partner Renault SA, offer improved fuel economy and acceleration when compared with previous engines of their size.

�The start of engine production at the Huadu plant confirms our ongoing commitment to providing Chinese customers with the best value,� said Mr. Yoshida, vice president of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd., and managing director of Dongfeng Nissan Passenger Vehicle Company at a ceremony to mark the completion of the plant. �As a Chinese company, we recognize the importance of promoting localization through improved R&D capability so as to better serve customer needs.�

With a displacement of 1.6 liters, the HR16DE engine is the most powerful engine of its size made in China. The engine will be fitted on the Tiida hatchback (Chinese name: Qida) and the Tiida sedan (Chinese name: Yida) for the Chinese market. The new MR20DE engine will be fitted on the �Bluebird Slyphy� (Xuan yi ), a new sedan model to be built by Dongfeng Nissan this autumn.

The plant�s production capacity will be expanded to 360,000 units by 2008 with all its engines to be fitted on models made by Dongfeng Nissan�s Huadu plant.

The new engine plant has adopted the Nissan Production Way (NPW), Nissan�s world-class global manufacturing system, under which manufacturing is synchronized with customer orders. The Huadu engine plant also features the Nissan Integrated Manufacturing System (NIMS), an important element of NPW, which significantly improves production efficiency by allowing two engine types to be manufactured simultaneously on one line.

Separately, Dongfeng Nissan also announced plans to invest an additional 600 million RMB to boost the Huadu plant�s vehicle production capacity. Capacity will be raised from 150,000 units at present to 270,000 units by the end of the year.

Nissan hopes its sales will grow through this plan to reach an additional 4.2 million units, in addition to maintaining the highest profit margin between global automakers and to maintain the return on investment capital estimated at 20%.

Mitsuji Sato, Managing Director of Nissan Motor Egypt, assured that offering the locally produced Sunny represents one of Nissan new era stages in Egypt, where the company committed itself to offer more high quality Nissan products through the current year.

Further, Moustafa Hussein, Marketing and Sales Manager at Nissan Motor Egypt, assured the public that Nissan Motor Egypt is currently heading an effort to extend its local distributors network of local sales companies through its ambitious plan to offer the best sales and after sales services that the consumer expects from a brand like Nissan, which has proved its presence the world over.

Throughout the first year, Nissan Motor Egypt was able to achieve lots of its ambitions by investing in its plant located in 6th of October Industrial City to reach a total production capacity of 17,000 units annually. Also, the number of employees has increased from 245 since the beginning of operations in April, up to 350 workers currently, which ensures Nissan Motor Egypt\'s effectiveness in developing automotive production activities in Egypt.

Based on this agreement, Renault Trucks will distribute Nissan\'s OEM LDTs under its brand identity through its specialized truck dealer network. Renault Trucks will sell the OEM LDTs as a complement to the successful Master and Mascott ranges.

\"With its superior maneuverability and efficient cost of ownership, the Cab-Over-Engine type of vehicle meets the high expectations of European customers. Another major European player joining forces with Nissan will make this type of vehicle even more successful,\" said Andrew Palmer, Vice president and Global Head of Nissan\'s Light Commercial Vehicles Business Unit. \"This agreement is part of our strategy to grow Nissan\'s global LCV business through direct and OEM sales,\" Palmer added.

Nissan will start supplying its OEM LDT to Renault Trucks in the first half of 2007. The vehicles supplied to Renault Trucks will be produced in Nissan\'s truck factory in Avila, Spain, where the new generation Cabstar will be built.

\"Nissan already supplies engines for Renault Trucks\' Light Duty range and is therefore a natural choice for developing synergies within this category of vehicles,\" said Jean-Marc Lange, Vice President, Light Duty Range of Renault Trucks. \"The Memorandum of Understanding to source Nissan\'s light duty cab-over-engine vehicle represents an opportunity to widen our product offer � Master and Mascott - in this segment. This fruitful relationship between Nissan and Renault Trucks, both highly quality focused companies, will enhance customer satisfaction,\" Lange added.

Nissan has identified the light commercial vehicles business as one of four breakthrough areas for the company under its Nissan Value-Up three-year business plan, which started in fiscal year 2005. Nissan has set ambitious objectives for the LCV business, which are to double operating profit to 8% and grow volumes by 40% to 434,000 units worldwide by fiscal year 2007.

In Europe, Nissan\'s LCV sales have increased by 29% over the past two years.

Renault Trucks is recognized by its customers in the delivery and craft trades for its professional expertise and the quality of its services. The current range offers Master and Mascott, together with specific services, which have been a real success with a 25% sales volume increase in recent years. By widening its range of products, Renault Trucks plans a sustainable growth in the light duty segment.
