Nissan to suspend orders for Mexican Infiniti models due to Trump's tariffs

Japanese car manufacturer Nissan Motor has temporarily refused orders for two models of Infiniti SUV manufactured in Mexico for the American market due to import duties imposed in the United States. This was reported by Reuters on April 4.

"Nissan Motor announced on Thursday that it will suspend new orders for two Mexican-made Infiniti SUVs for the U.S. market after the entry into force of new automobile duties imposed by President Donald Trump," the agency reports.
