flag Nissan warns UK's Sunderland plant may close if excluded from EU’s "Made in Europe" rules affecting incentives and market access.

flag Nissan warns the UK government that its Sunderland plant could close if the country is excluded from the EU’s new “Made in Europe” rules, which would restrict access to public incentives and market advantages for vehicles produced outside the bloc. flag The proposed regulations aim to boost European manufacturing by requiring higher European content in vehicles sold in the EU, potentially disadvantaging UK-made cars. flag While the EU says countries with trade agreements like the UK may be treated as equivalent, Nissan and UK industry leaders remain concerned about uncertainty and potential trade barriers. flag The company continues to invest in the plant, including new electric vehicle production and battery facilities, but stresses the need for formal recognition to ensure competitiveness. flag The UK government is pushing for inclusion in the framework amid ongoing negotiations.
