ETCM begins export of Nissan Sentra to Indonesia

Nissan Sentra Sport Indonesia

Edaran Tan Chong Motor Sdn Bhd will begin exporting Nissan Sentras to Indonesia, with a first batch of 136 units already on their way to Indonesia. Both Tan Chong and Nissan Motor Co. Ltd are taking advantage of the AFTA free trade agreement with this export deal, and the Nissan Sentras contain more than 60% ASEAN content, which exceeds the AFTA requirement of 40% ASEAN content.

Nissan Motor Indonesia indicates that more orders will be placed in the year 2008, so this means more foreign money coming into Malaysia, something that is always good.

    Just forget it, in Malaysia if Proton still survive by protection Nissan will never sell cheap cheap cars….

    The Sentra is consider a old model, i think they are like Proton to sell Wira over to Indonesia to clear stock. Since Indonesia tax little over there…

    I doubt the sentral is cheaper than the protons. But yet, they are still bought over. Whether its cheapo or not, the quality of the sentra is still maintained.
