Nissan Motor Co. said on Tuesday it planned to spend 6.4 billion yen ($54 million) to boost its production capacity for subcompact engines at its main engine plant near Tokyo by 80,000 unITs a year by December 2008.
Nissan declined to give a new output capacity figure for the Yokohama plant, which had a production capacITy of 400,000 engines a year as of March 2005.
The planned new investment is part of the company's three-stage output expansion programme for the Yokohama plant, a Nissan spokeswoman said. The company aims to spend 15.7 billion yen this business year on the plant, following 11 billion yen that IT spent in the year ended March, she said.
Nissan said last month IT would reduce production at two car assembly plants in Japan for three months starting in April to adjust inventory levels and prepare for a seasonal downturn in demand.
日产汽车周二表示，该公司计划耗资64亿日元(约合5400万美元)用于扩大中心发动机生产厂的产能。该厂位于东京近郊，主要生产超小型汽车发动机，预计到2008年12月前将年产能增加到8万台。
日产拒绝提供横滨工厂新产能的具体数据，截至2005年3月，横滨发动机工厂的产能为每年40万台。
日产发言人表示，规划中的新投资案是横滨厂产能扩充三阶段计划的一部分。该公司预计本会计年度在横滨工厂上的支出为157亿日元，而在截至3月底的上一会计年度里，日产耗费在横滨工厂的资金达110亿日元。
日产上个月表示，自4月起的3个月内，将降低日本两个汽车组装厂的产量，以调整库存，并预先为季节性需求疲软做准备。 |
