Fábrica da Nissan volta à produção (Nissan: Leaf plant back online, still assessing North America impact)

"Production of Nissan’s new Leaf, as well as the all-electric car’s high-tech battery, has resumed in Japan, the company announced today.
The Oppama Leaf plant and Zama battery plant resumed production today, though their ability to sustain production will “depend to a large degree on the frequency of rolling blackouts due to electricity shortages,” said a statement from Nissan’s Franklin-based North American division. The plants had been shut down since an earthquake and tsunami ravaged the country.
The Leaf will be manufactured in Nissan’s Smyrna plant beginning next year.
In America, Nissan said manufacturing operations should continue on a normal production schedule through at least April 1.
Other automakers with ties to Japan have already seen their American production activity impacted. General Motors, for instance, temporarily closed a pick-up truck plant in Louisiana, and Toyota has slowed production at some of its plants.
Nissan is currently studying the possibility for its Decherd, Tenn. engine plant — located about 100 miles from Nashville in Southeast Tennessee — to supply V-6 engines to Japan to replace lost production from the Iwaki engine plant, which is near Japan’s crippled nuclear facility.
