Nissan venture doubles sales

July 5, 2005

Nissan Motor's car-making joint venture more than doubled sales in the first half to become the country's fastest-growing auto producer, but that pace of expansion suggested it might still undershoot a full-year target.

Dongfeng Motor Co - a 50-50 joint venture between Japan's second-largest automaker and Dongfeng Motor Corp - said Monday it sold 66,476 cars, versus 27,204 units in the same period last year.

The venture said in March it aimed to move 140,000 Nissan-branded passenger vehicles this year, a target that a senior executive said it is sticking to.

Dongfeng Motor undershot its own target of 80,000 units last year when it moved fewer than 61,000 cars.

``Judging by our sales growth in the first half, we became the fastest-growing automaker in China during that period,'' a sales manager at the venture said. ``In the latter half of the year, we plan to launch a new model, which we expect to be quite popular.''
