Nissan Europe has reported a record January with sales of 50,542 units, an increase of 71.9% over the same period last year. The sales are up for the tenth consecutive month thanks to a successful Qashqai.
The compact cross-over, which was launched in March 2007, resulted in 14,556 sales in January. Secondly, the new Tiida model sold 4,317 units in January. The Tiida sales will likely increase in the future as the car has been recently launched in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Spain and Portugal will see the launch of Tiida next month. Note sales were up by 32% compared to last year with 7,334 units sold and the X-Trail continues its momentum with 4,395 units sold in January.
