SUZUKI AUTO ANNOUNCES PLANS FOR PICKUP TRUCK
BUILT BY NISSAN NORTH AMERICA
Brea, Calif., (December 11, 2007) – American Suzuki Motor Corporation today announced that its midsize pickup truck will be produced by Nissan North America, Inc. The truck will be based on Nissan’s Frontier midsize pickup and built at the company’s manufacturing facility in Smyrna, Tenn.
Production of the pickup truck will begin in the fall of 2008. The vehicle will be marketed solely by Suzuki in North America.
In 2006, Suzuki and Nissan announced an agreement to expand the scope of their business collaboration. The pickup is part of that agreement, which also included the supply by Suzuki to Nissan of Alto minicars in Japan.
