Nissan North America revealed its August sales numbers showing a decrease of 27 percent compared with the August 2009 sales fuelled by “Cash for Clunkers” program. Nissan sold only 76,827 units versus 105,312 units a year earlier: Nissan brand sales decreased by 30.9 percent for the month while Infiniti sales rose 21.9 over a year before. Still, sales are up 14.2 percent for all of 2010. “When you look beyond year-to-year comparisons, there was strength in Nissan’s sales, particularly in the body-on-frame and crossover segments,” said Al Castignetti, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division. “Consumers continue to look to Nissan for our full lineup of quality cars, crossovers and trucks.” “Led by both the strength of our product lineup and successful marketing initiatives like our presence on the Emmys, Infiniti continued to build awareness and sales momentum in August,” said Ben Poore, vice president, Infiniti Business Unit. “With the new G25 entry luxury sedan joining the all-new, red-hot Infiniti M, QX and the rest of the freshened G Line, we expect to continue our gains in the competitive luxury market.”
