However, the US coupe market has grown steadily growing and models such as
Honda’s CL and Toyota’s Solara (both produced locally) have sold well in the
US.

Nissan has already started U.S. production of luxury pickups and launched several
new luxury sedan models, including the Inifiniti Q45.

This September it will introduce a new coupe with a sticker price of around
$30,000.

Nissan hopes the new coupe and the Z, a sports coupe to be introduced next
year, will strengthen its brand image in North America.
