The Nissan Zimbabwe company that manufactures its products from South Africa has began selling their new Nissan Navara in the country with the cheapest car going for USD 40 000.
Addressing journalists in Harare on Wednesday, Nissan AMTEC Motors Managing Director Mr Lucas Taruvinga said the new vehicle will increase Nissan market shares in Zimbabwe.
“The Nissan brand is a very strong brand in the country, it contains 30 % market share in Zimbabwe.
“The Nissan Brand has been in the country for over 52 years dating back to the days of Datsun Rhodesia so it has been tried and tested.” He said.
Mr Taruvinga said Nissan Zimbabwe is ready to sell the new product to Zimbabweans.
“With these new products, we feel we can increase our market share. The network is ready to roll out the new products.” Added Mr Taruvinga.
The Nissan company accompanied by journalists from various institutions took on a test drive with the new beasts to Troutbeck Resort in Nyanga, Eastern Highlands on Wednesday afternoon. They returned to Harare on Thursday evening and the trip was deemed a success, as no problem was detected on the roads.
All who boarded and drove the new beasts were satisfied by the comfort of the vehicles.
