Nissan sales for the year were up 4% which is not bad in the current climate. Infiniti was down 10% though. So how did sales by model go? The data source is Nissan and the photos are by Nissan and Infiniti.
Nissan: The Rogue is the main model with 31% of all sales and despite it being down 9.5%, it didn't stop the brand from increasing. The facelift Sentra (pictured above) was up 40% so that was a huge help. The Versa was up 72% and the Ariya 47%.Some of the smaller selling models were the ones that went down the most. The Murano (-38%) is soon to be replaced with a new generation model. The Armada (-28%) dropped its base model which seems to have affected volume.
The Titan pick up truck (-24%) is being dropped altogether. The Maxima sedan has been axed but will be replaced with an electric model that's coming in 2025.
Infiniti: The marque's sales were down 10% which wasn't an impressive result. With Acura selling over 130,000 units, I would have thought Infiniti's 58,000 is a fair way short of where it should be.
Over 153,000 Infiniti vehicles were sold in 2017, so the fall since then has been dramatic. Perhaps they were pushing volume too much back then.
The QX50 compact crossover (picture above) was up 8% but the rest were down to varying degrees. A new QX80 large SUV is coming so that would explain the 19% drop there. The QX55 crossover coupe's sales dropped -31% and the Q60 coupe is discontinued.
