Nissan are next to offer their own scrappage scheme

Following in the footsteps of Vauxhall and Kia, Nissan traders are now offering their own discounts on new cars if their old cars are traded in. They are accepting cars that are as young as 7 years old, and are offering up to £2,000 offer certain new models of car. These include the new Micra, Note, Qashqai and Qashaqai+2. By lowering the age to only 7 years, they are likely to grab a high percentage of new car sales and most certainly boost the economy. The scheme is said to expire by June.

Recently the Nissan manufacturing plant in Sunderland have landed a new contract to start producing a new 2 litre engine. This is great news for the workers at the factory as many jobs have now been secured. It has also been expected that many new jobs will be created, around 200.

Helped by investors, the income will come over the next four years and the engine will be used in newer Nissan models coming around that time.

Scrappage scheme brings more jobs for Nissan

In order for Nissan to meet the high demand of the UK scrappage scheme, the Sunderland plant is said to be employing an extra 100 members of staff.

The jobs are only temporary though, 3 month contracts, as with the other jobs handed out in the past few months. Its a short spell for the Sunderland branch and its not only UK thats demanding their models. The scrappage scheme in Germany is said to be putting high demand on Nissan as well.
