Nissan Frontier Pickup Is the First to Disembark at Suape Port
The first model to disembark at Suape port will be the Frontier pickup, which is imported from Argentina, leaving from the port of Zárate. The automaker ensures it has planned procedures aimed at ensuring greater efficiency, quality, and speed for customers looking for the brand’s vehicles in the Brazilian market.
“With the option of also disembarking imported vehicles at Suape Port, we will reduce the arrival time of the models for our network and have more options for customers,” says Tiago Castro, Senior Director of Sales and Marketing at Nissan.
The Nissan Sentra is also imported from Mexico while the Versa crossover is manufactured in Rio de Janeiro.
“The proximity of the port to our dealers in the Northeast and North offsets even the longer shipping times from the South,” explains Andrey Olijnyk, Director of Logistics and Production Control at Nissan South America.
