Affected by the problem of the Chinese capital semiconductor factory "Nexperia" (Nexperia), Japanese automobile manufacturer Nissan (Nissan)'s Kyushu factory in Japan has reported that it will reduce production again starting from November 24.
Reuters reported on the 19th that due to the suspension of shipments of Nexperia products, the factory (Kyushu Factory) of Nissan's subsidiary "Nissan Motors Kyushu" is reported to be cutting production again starting from November 24. However, the production reduction plan is based on the current situation, because the supply situation is still unstable, and if the shortage of parts can be eliminated through alternative procurement, the plan may still be changed in the future.
According to people familiar with the details, due to the suspension of shipments by Anshi and the shortage of semiconductors, Nissan's Kyushu plant has reduced production by about 900 units in the week starting from November 10. It then resumed normal production this week (the week starting from the 17th), but plans to reduce production again by about 1,400 units next week. In addition, Nissan's Oppama Plant has also been reducing production since November 10. According to relevant sources, the Oppama Plant will continue to reduce production this week.
In an interview with Reuters, a Nissan spokesperson said, "The supply situation is still unstable and we will continue to monitor it. If necessary, we will make appropriate production adjustments (production cuts) and strive to reduce risks. When supply is stable, we will quickly resume production" to minimize the impact on vehicle delivery.
