Nissan Motor is planning to reduce approximately 10% of its European workforce as part of a broader global restructuring effort aimed at streamlining operations and improving efficiency.
The cuts are expected to be accompanied by significant changes at the company’s Sunderland plant in the United Kingdom, including the consolidation of two production lines at the facility.
The restructuring reflects mounting pressure on the automotive industry, including shifting consumer demand, rising operational costs, and intensifying competition in the rapidly growing electric vehicle sector.
While Nissan has not officially confirmed the reported figures, the planned reductions represent another significant step in the company’s efforts to resize its international manufacturing footprint and remain competitive in a challenging market.
