Nissan Frontier Becomes Five-Millionth Vehicle At Mississippi Plant

Sliger added that Nissan has its wonderful team to thank for the success. “The power of Nissan Canton is rooted in its employees, who will take us to new heights – continuing to drive the EV revolution for our company.” As part of Nissan’s Ambition 2030 long-term goal, electric vehicles will soon be built at the Mississippi facility.

A $500 million investment will see two new battery-powered models (one Nissan, one Infiniti) leaving the factory in the coming years. At the announcement, Nissan’s COO Ashwani Gupta said Canton is an integral part of the brand’s electric ambitions. “Nissan is making a strong investment in Canton’s future, bringing the latest technology, training, and process to create a truly best-in-class EV manufacturing team,” he remarked.
