The automaker plans to scale back output by over 10,000 units over a three-month period starting in May. This move follows adjustments to production schedules at Nissan\u2019s Tennessee facility. Despite the cuts, Nissan stated that overall operations and employment at the Kanda plant will remain unchanged. Other automakers, including Honda, are also shifting production strategies in light of the new trade policy. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20250416\/5010027855.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-170459\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/fnn_nissan-suv-unsplash_2025_cl.jpg?resize=1400%2C993&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Nissan Adjusts SUV Output In Kyushu Due To US Tariffs\" width=\"1400\" height=\"993\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/fnn_nissan-suv-unsplash_2025_cl.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/fnn_nissan-suv-unsplash_2025_cl.jpg?resize=300%2C213&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/fnn_nissan-suv-unsplash_2025_cl.jpg?resize=1024%2C726&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/fnn_nissan-suv-unsplash_2025_cl.jpg?resize=768%2C545&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>Photo by Jameel Ismail on Unsplash<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
