Nissan to Boost Infiniti Outlets in China to Up to 150

Nissan Motor Co., Japan’s second-largest automaker, plans to increase dealerships and showrooms in China for the luxury Infiniti brand to as many as 150 by 2016 from 60 now, a company executive said.

“We won’t give up long-term investment plans in this market merely because of short-term market fluctuations,”Allen Lu, managing director of Infiniti’s China unit, said at a briefing in Beijing yesterday. “The winter for luxury car market is looming and consumers are going to benefit.”
