PT Nissan Motor Indonesia (also called NMI) is a subsidiary of Nissan Motor Company in Indonesia. The company was founded in 2001 and headquartered in Jakarta, Indonesia. Previously, Nissan vehicles were distributed by PT Indocitra Buana (established 1986), a joint venture company between Indomobil Group and Bimantara Citra. Together with PT Nissan Motor Distributor Indonesia, these companies acts as both national sales/distribution company and formerly a manufacturing company.
In January 2019, NMI closed their Plant 1 in Purwakarta, effectively ending the production of Grand Livina, X-Trail, Serena and Juke. The plant would be converted to an engine manufacturing plant for Mitsubishi.[1] Meanwhile, Datsun models stay on production in their Plant 2 until its closure in January 2020. On 18 March 2020, President of NMI Isao Sekiguchi officially announced the end of Nissan vehicle manufacturing in Indonesia.[2] Manufacturing previously based in Indonesia was moved to Thailand.[3]
Between 2009 and 2014, NMI exported the locally assembled X-Trail to Malaysia and Thailand.[4] [5] [6] NMI supplied the March/Micra to Australia between 2010 and 2013.[7] From 2014 to 2017, the Juke and Livina X-Gear was exported to Thailand.[8] [9] The plant also exported the Grand Livina and Livina X-Gear by knock-down kits to Malaysia later to be assembled by Tan Chong Motor Assemblies between 2007 and 2019.
