Nissan ‘could pull out of EU and expand in UK after hard Brexit’
Carmaker considering focusing on UK market if there are tariffs on exports, according to report
Nissan has reportedly drawn up contingency plans to pull out of manufacturing in mainland Europe in the event of a hard Brexit in favour of ramping up its production in the UK.
If a trade deal is struck between the UK and the EU that leads to tariffs on car exports, the Japanese carmaker would focus on selling more cars in Britain, the Financial Times reported, citing two people involved in the discussions.
