Global first-half 2026 sales fell 6.7% to 1,506,052 vehicles.

US sales rose 0.3% to 489,809 vehicles while US production increased 24.2% to 303,677 through the first half of 2026.

Shifting Rogue, Pathfinder and Frontier production to US plants avoided about $2.3 billion in tariff exposure.

Nissan’s global numbers are going the wrong way. Worldwide sales in the first half of 2026 dropped 6.7 percent to 1,506,052 vehicles, and production fell 6.8 percent, with June alone down 8.3 percent and overseas markets like China and Europe taking the biggest hit.

In the middle of that slump, though, the United States turned into Nissan’s bright spot.
