PRESIDENT & CEO, NISSAN MOTOR CO. LTD.<br />
Another month brings along another SHIFT_, whether<br />
it’s in our lives, our business, or our dreams and ambitions.<br />
SHIFT_ is constantly moving and never resting, and this is<br />
what <strong>Nissan</strong> is all about.<br />
In the past we have highlighted many of <strong>Nissan</strong>’s<br />
plans and achievements, worldwide and certainly in the<br />
region, where with the help of our dealers we have grown<br />
exponentially and continue to do so.<br />
Regionally, we have had several product launches<br />
and reveals, whether it’s the always-youthful TIIDA, the<br />
bigger and better Pathfinder or the pride of <strong>Nissan</strong> Egypt,<br />
the locally produced <strong>Nissan</strong> Sunny and Pickup. We are<br />
committed to growing our business even further, and<br />
we have shown that through our regional plans and our<br />
commitments to each and every market throughout the<br />
region.<br />
<strong>Nissan</strong> is on an expansion plan, we have committed<br />
ourselves to several new markets which are sure to make<br />
an impact on <strong>Nissan</strong>’s global expansion plans, and we<br />
believe that the regional markets are some of the strongest<br />
in the world with a passion for all things <strong>Nissan</strong>.<br />
With the addition of the new Pathfinder to our SUV<br />
lineup, we have strengthened the largest SUV lineup in<br />
the region several fold – the new Pathfinder offers more<br />
seating, more power, bolder design and a more dynamic<br />
driving experience – dare we say this is the most complete<br />
Pathfinder yet.<br />
Our promise to each and every <strong>Nissan</strong> customer in<br />
the region is our enduring commitment, and hope that the<br />
coming years will bring along fruitful growth and unfazed<br />
dedication.<br />

“In the car industry, superior design is critical. Product<br />
design defines the first impression the customer has<br />
about our products. With one look the customer makes<br />
their decision about their appeal. Of course, an attractive<br />
design is not enough to make a product a success, but<br />
it is necessary. It’s all about the customer’s ownership<br />
experience.”<br />
