The Nissan industrial estate in the Kamenka industrial zone in St. Petersburg will be inactive until the end of December 2022. This is reported by the Japanese edition of the Nikkei. It was previously believed that the company would come out of the downtime introduced in March 2022 in September. The reason for the latest decision is officially called insurmountable (for the Japanese leadership of the automaker) problems with the supply of components for the Russian plant.

Until recently, the company produced two models: Nissan X-Trail and Nissan Qashquai crossovers. At the end of last year, it reported on the production of 43,000 vehicles. At the same time, the maximum capacity of the conveyor is 100,000 cars per year. It is known that at the time of the shutdown announcement, about two thousand people were working in the factory and they are still receiving wages.
