Beam Me Up: New Nissan Plant Takes
Shape in Decherd, Tenn.
* Portfolio of jointly developed major projects has jumped
from three to ten
* Nissan and Daimler have completed factory building for the
joint production of engines in the USA
The chief executives of the Renault-Nissan Alliance and
Daimler AG said today that their companies’ partnership is advancing quickly,
and the scope of the collaboration is increasingly global.
The French-Japanese-German partnership began in April 2010,
with three “pillar projects” primarily focused on Europe. Since then, the
portfolio has increased to ten significant projects, including major
initiatives from North America to Japan. In addition, relevant business units
are working together in best-practice sharing and other forms of cooperation.
