Nissan Confirms Production of a New SUV in Brazil, Alongside the Launch of the Next Generation of the Nissan Kicks. What Can We Expect from This New Model?

The Nissan made an investment announcement of billions in its factory in Resende/RJ aimed at producing two new SUVs, one of which is the new generation of the Kicks. Regarding the second model, there are still many speculations about its profile and characteristics, leaving the public curious and anxious.

The aim of Nissan is to expand its share in the Brazilian market by filling gaps in its product line. Currently, the Resende factory only produces the Kicks, while other models are imported from countries such as Mexico, Argentina, the USA, the UK, and Japan.

The announced investment of R$ 3 billion for factory expansion will be allocated to the development of the new Kicks, the unprecedented national SUV, and a turbo engine, as speculations indicate. Nissan confirmed that the platform for the new national SUV will be the same as that used by Renault in some of its models, such as the newly announced Kardian. This platform can also accommodate midsize models, offering versatility for the brand.

With plans to launch a 1.0 turbo engine that could be adapted for electrification, Nissan may follow in Renault‘s footsteps and offer a flex hybrid SUV, leveraging technological synergy between the brands. Furthermore, Nissan is considering the possibility of bringing the X-Trail from Mexico and possibly producing the Nissan Qashqai in Brazil, aiming to explore the midsize SUVs segment and enhance its participation in this heated market.

If it decides on the Qashqai, Nissan could use the 1.3 turbo engine from Renault, potentially adapted for electrification, for both the Kicks and the Qashqai. Additionally, the brand plans to introduce its ePower system in Brazil to compete in the hybrid market. Both the Kicks and the Qashqai are global products from Nissan and already have hybrid versions in other markets, indicating a possible strategy for the Brazilian market. In the coming months, Nissan will reveal more information, and Canaltech will continue to follow closely.
