Company Overview

Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. is a global automotive manufacturer engaged in the design, development, manufacturing, and sale of motor vehicles and related products. The company operates primarily within the automotive industry, with activities spanning passenger vehicles, light commercial vehicles, trucks, and automotive parts. Nissan’s core revenue drivers are vehicle sales, particularly under the Nissan and Infiniti brands, as well as financing services provided through its captive finance operations.

Nissan serves a broad range of customer segments, including mass-market consumers, fleet buyers, and premium customers through Infiniti.
