Nissan halts US-made EV plans as tax credits fade away

Nissan is suspending plans to produce two electric sport utility vehicles at its Canton, Mississippi, plant as already-sluggish US demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is set to slow even further with the expiration of the federal US$7,500 tax credit. The automaker had been preparing to launch a Nissan- and an Infiniti-branded electric SUV from late 2028 but has told suppliers to halt preparations.
