A: Hey there, what's up?
B: Not much, just cruising through the news! Anything interesting?

A: Yeah, you know Nissan?
B: Sure, they make cars, right?

A: Right! Well, they're having trouble with their new electric vehicle models.
B: Oh really? What happened?

A: Turns out, the demand isn't as strong as they thought. So, they're gonna delay the production of two SUV models in Mississippi.
B: Whoa, that's a big deal! How long is this delay supposed to last?

A: Could be up to a year. They initially wanted to start producing five new EV models, but they dropped two - a sedan and a compact SUV.
B: Wow, that's a lot of changes! Why are they making these decisions?

A: It seems the Trump administration is reviewing incentives for electric car purchases, so that might be one reason.
B: I see. With EV sales slowing and predictions getting downgraded, other automakers are rethinking their plans too, huh?

A: Yup! Even Honda's postponing investments in EVs and fuel-cell vehicles due to a downward revision of their 2030 electric car sales target.
B: That's quite a shakeup! Keep me posted on any updates, okay?

Japan's Nissan Motor says it will delay the start of production of two new electric-vehicle models in the United States due to weak expected demand.



The automaker says the SUV models were originally planned to start rolling off its production line in the state of Mississippi in 2028. The delay could last as long as a year.



Nissan initially planned to sell five new EV models in the US market. But it has scrapped the development of two of them, a sedan and a compact SUV.



The decision to delay production comes as the Trump administration is reviewing incentives for EV purchases introduced by the previous Biden administration.



Slowing EV sales and downgraded outlooks are prompting other automakers to review their business plans.



Japan's Honda Motor says it will postpone making investments related to EVs and fuel-cell vehicles, citing a downward revision of its 2030 sales target for EVs.
