What's up with Nissan Ph anyway?

[blitzmage_89]

Im just curious bakit hindi pa nila pinapalitan yung sentra and cefiro? Wala nang bumibili ngayon dahil lumang luma na talaga ng design Siguro mahigit 10 year old na. Yung sentra ng US at Japan pagkaganda ng pagkadesign tapos pagditong dito (....)

Naiiwan na sila sobra ng toyota , honda,mitsu,mazda,suzuki errr lahat na ata yun hahha yung mabenta na lang ata sakanila yung X-Trail

Ano ba meron sa nissan ph?

[pup2]

I think their Frontier pickup is also OK ... baka yun lang ang panlaban nila at profitable sa kanila?

[[archie]]

hmm agree their pick up is ok talaga... panglaban sa strada and hilux.

yung cars nila, poor sales talaga sa pinas kaya siguro they did not bother changing the model. well thats just my opinion naman

There are two different companies managing the pickup/truck/SUV lineup and the car lineup.

Nissan's cars are locally sold by Yulon Motor, based in Taiwan, since 2000 or so. To be honest, Yulon's handling of Nissan's cars here hasn't been very good, and I've heard tales that their servicing needs improvement too.

Universal Motors Corp. (UMC) on the other hand takes care of the pickups and SUVs.

The Cefiro has been replaced by the Teana which isn't really selling well, the Sentra IMO is still ok although if I were to buy a 1.6 Sentra, I'd look elsewhere first, but the 1.3 is actually pretty good, i'd take it any day over the butt ugly Honda City, I almost got a 1.3 A/T actually but decided to get an Altis in the end.

I think Nissan is busy preparing for the launch of their own "Innova fighter", the Grand Livina. Unless they come out with a diesel version, they will just be playing catch up with the Innova just like the Mitsubishi Fuzion which can be hardly seen on the streets.

I am in complete agreement with blitsmage89... Why can't NISSAN Ph offer the current models that are available in all other Asian countries and the rest of the car world? Are we the dumping ground for these old models that couldn't sell from the other countries, perhaps? Come on NISSAN Ph stop your oxymoronic gimmickry, will you? Pinoys have pride, too.

[sboogie]

sa nakikita ko kasi mahal ang mga newer models ng nissan kaya yung mga older models parin ang binibenta dito

Our market is too small and insignificant.

Of the more that 100,000 new vehicles sold in the Philippines last year about 60% are LCV, AUV and trucks...

40% passenger cars ( fleet cars i.e. taxis, company cars, private use) dominated by Toyota and Honda....

As what Elizabeth Lee of UMC-Nissan mentioned, the government should support the local auto industry so that car manufacturers will be enticed to come here not just to sell cars (old models abroad but "new in the Philippines") but to assemble and produce parts...

[blitzmage_89]

haha so just because we're some third world country who cant afford 350Zs shouldnt mean they shouldnt release new models

Sa thailand ang malaysia magaganda nissans nila. Kung maglalabas naman sila ng micra may magpapalayas na sa current leader sa hatchies which is the honda jazz

Nissan has gone all wrong. The x-trail looks Jurassic. the sentra... welll errr... crap. It's like nissan is gone in the industry silently. hopefully the teana is their start point even though teana has been in japan since 2004.

the cars that they should bring are fuel efficient sedans and hatchbacks. like the nissan march... nissan versa or tiida. and their small suv Rogue.

[1D4LV]

imho. they are really selling the sentras dirt cheap. imagine the 1.3 GX AT which sells at 630k?

mas mura pa kesa sa City ah.. yun nga lang ang napansin ko, medyo hilaw. ni walang power side mirrors.

Ano naman po masasabi nyo sa Urvan nila like ung escapade?
I'm planning to buy one.

I heard matibay daw yan, no firsthand experience with it as we never owned one, pero nakasakay ako once and I remember na astig talaga yung lamig ng aircon.

Actually, few years back, Nissan was on the edge of bankruptcy. Renault came to the rescue and revive the Nissan badge. They deceided to sell cars first in the profitable market like in US and Europe. But now, asian or asean market is in their focus. Grand Livina, Murano are now here in Phils. In Dubai, you will see new Nissan Tiida, Murano, Patrol, etc.. They are now selling Grand Livina as global model. I think within few years we will see a new Nissan revival here in Phils.
