Nissan reportedly set to axe production of US destined vehicles

Nissan plans to cut production of its Rogue SUV in Japan by 13,000 units between May and July in response to new 25% US import tariffs, according to Reuters citing a source familiar with the matter.

The reduction will affect output at its Kyushu plant, Nissan’s largest domestic facility, though it will continue operating two shifts daily.

The Rogue, Nissan’s top-selling US model, accounted for over 246,000 sales last year. With the US being Nissan’s biggest market, the company is particularly exposed to tariff-related disruptions.
