NIssan's North East plant is creating 300 new jobs as it ramps up plans for its net zero revolution.
The Sunderland site of car giant Nissan is gearing up to launch production of two new eco-friendly versions of its popular crossover vehicles – the Juke and the new electrified version of the Qashqai, the plant’s most successful ever model. And as the plant ramps up its EV36Zero journey, it is recruiting for 300 people, to work in a range of areas including manufacturing, engineering and maintenance.
Nissan pioneered the crossover segment when it launched the Qashqai 15 years ago, triggering production of more than three million vehicles. Now, the Qashqai is set to be equipped with Nissan’s unique e-Power technology, a groundbreaking powertrain.
