Is it already June? Half way though this year known as 2013. The May 2013 sales figures are out, and Nissan sold 115 Nissan GT-R's in May vs 135 in May 2012. 486 YTD in 2013 vs 479 YTD in 2012, lets call that a push. No bump from the Track Editions that I can see, but perhaps in the next few months we might see how the Track Edition plays out in the US market. The 370Z sold 681 cars down nearly 25%. The all electric Nissan LEAF sold 2138 units, up 319%. Nissan itself was up 31.7 percent, Infiniti down 25.4 percent. A little odd. The G coupe and G sedan were down huge. Everyone waiting for the new Q based cars?
Strong gains by top-selling Nissan models such as Altima, Pathfinder, Sentra and Rogue helped Nissan North America set a new May U.S. sales record with 114,457 deliveries, an increase of 24.7 percent over May 2012. The Nissan division also set a new May record, with 106,558 sales, up 31.2 percent over last year. Infiniti sales in May totaled 7,899, led by the best-ever month for the JX crossover.Full press release and sales chart after the break.
