Trevor Mann, Chairman of the Management Committee of Nissan Europe
Nissan announced Friday that it will make the replacement for the current Micra at a Renault plant in Flins, France, from 2016, using available Alliance capacity. Nissan’s manufacturing capacity in Europe and India (the current source for the Micra) will be fully utilized ahead, so Renault building the car at its Flins plant cuts capital expense, foreign exchange exposure, and working capital through shorter supply chains. The Nissan Global Media Center spoke with Trevor Mann, Chairman of the Management Committee of Nissan Europe, on the plan.
