Nissan CEO: Tariffs Could Cause Moving Production Out of Mexico

President Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Mexican imports could make Nissan Motor Co. move production elsewhere, the Japanese automaker’s CEO, Makoto Uchida, warned, the Daily Mail reported Monday.

Nissan is Mexico’s second-largest automaker, behind only General Motors, with some 320,000 units expected to be exported from Mexico to the U.S. this fiscal year.

“If high tariffs are imposed, we need to be ready for this,” Uchida said. “We may have to transfer production elsewhere, and if that decision is made, we’ll think about how to make it happen while closely monitoring the situation.”
