New Mid-term Plan Nissan Power 88
6. Cost leadership
We have been successful in reducing costs by 5% annually, due mainly to our cross-functional monozukuri
activities involving our supplier base. As our production footprint is increasingly global, we will maintain this pace
by enhancing and deepening these activities in every Nissan production base across the regions. Moreover,
evaluating not only purchasing costs but also logistics and in-house costs, we have set an objective to reduce
total costs by 5% each year.
Together with a stronger brand, investments in products, technologies and global capacity, we aim to both
achieve and grow beyond the Nissan Power 88 plan.
Nissan is operating its business based on the mid-term plan, Nissan Power 88, for fiscal years 2011 to
2016. “Power” derives its significance from the strengths and efforts we will apply to our brands and sales.
Our commitment is to renew our focus on the overall customer experience, elevating Nissan’s brand power
and ensuring quality and excellence for every person who buys a Nissan car. “88” denotes the measurable
rewards from achieving our plan. We aim to achieve global market share of 8% from 5.8% in 2010, and we
Business expansion in progress
Across the world we are increasing our global production footprint.
In China, from January, 2012, Nissan's largest global market, we started production at the second Huadu plant building
the Tiida. Huadu is now our largest manufacturing facility worldwide with annual production capacity of 600,000 units.
We will also invest RMB 2 billion (US$ 315 million) in the Xiangyang plant which will also produce Infiniti models for the

six tactics under Nissan Power 88:
manufacturing facility in Dalian. This is an important step towards our target of delivering sales of 2 million units in China by 2015.
1. Brand power
To strengthen Nissan’s brand power, we will expand our strength in engineering and production to the sales,
marketing and ownership experience. We will raise the level of interaction with our customers to create a
world-class standard of service that will build lasting relationships with every Nissan car owner. We recognize
that having a stronger brand will help close the gap with our top competitors in every measurable area – from
revenue generation to overall opinion and purchase intention.
vehicles sold in Russia will be locally built. In Brazil and Mexico, we announced new manufacturing plants in
In Russia, we plan to double capacity at our St. Petersburg plant by 2014. By 2015, up to 80% of Nissan
2. Sales power
Sales power in the mid-term plan refers to fully grasping the needs of customers in each market, resulting in
more sales volume and greater market share. In emerging markets, we will focus on building a robust dealer
network with market positioning and staffing optimized to meet the needs of local Nissan customers. In mature
markets, where our dealer network is already established, we will take a strategic approach to improve customer
loyalty and improve sales efficiency by increasing sales volume per outlet.
Resende and Aguascalientes, respectively. These investments will contribute towards building 2 million units of
production capacity in the Americas by 2014, up from 1.2 million units last year.
In March, we announced the return of Datsun. We are now preparing for the return of this iconic brand in India,
Indonesia and Russia starting in 2014.

3. Enhancing quality
Nissan intends to make steady progress in improving product quality. During Nissan Power 88, our aim is to
raise Nissan into the top group of global automakers in product quality and elevate Infiniti to leadership status
among peer luxury products.
4. Zero-emission leadership
Nissan has taken the lead as the all-time volume leader in dedicated electric vehicle sales. Nissan’s EV lineup
will include a light commercial vehicle and an all-electric premium car, to be launched by Infiniti in the near
future. Together with our alliance partner Renault, we are planning the launch of seven more all-electric vehicles
and we intend to put 1.5 million EVs on roads worldwide by 2016. In addition, Nissan continues to take a
leadership role in every aspect from the development of batteries, chargers and vehicle lineup to electric grid
studies, battery recycling and the use of batteries for energy storage, so that we will contribute to the
establishment of sustainable mobility.
5. Business expansion
Regarding the 8% market share objective under Nissan Power 88, we estimate that 35% of the growth in
volume will come from mature markets and 65% will come from emerging markets. We will achieve this through
a steady tempo of new product launches averaging every six weeks, a continued focus on growth markets and
the expansion of our Infiniti and light commercial vehicle businesses. Investments in manufacturing capacity
expansion, particularly in China, North America, Brazil, Russia and India, will enable us to increase sales volume.

Reach of zero-emission vehicles
During 2011, Nissan LEAF reached a sales milestone, making it the world's most successful electric
vehicle. In total, we sold 23,000 units last year and a cumulative 30,000 units since the start of sales in late
2010.
We continue with our commitment to zero emission under Nissan Power 88. In January we announced an
all new electric model alongside the award winning LEAF. The e-NV200 will enter production in 2013 and
is planned to be manufactured in the Barcelona Plant in Spain.
With AVTOVAZ in Russia
Together with AVTOVAZ, the Alliance is targeting a 40% share of the Russian market – the fastest growing
