Infiniti Halts US-Bound Crossover Production Amid New Trump Tariffs

Infiniti, Nissan Motor’s luxury brand, has indefinitely suspended production of its QX50 and QX55 crossovers destined for the U.S. market. This significant move is a direct consequence of the newly imposed 25% tariffs on imported vehicles by the Trump administration.
In a memo to its retailers, Infiniti Americas Vice President Tiago Castro stated that output for these Mexico-built models is paused “until further notice.” A company spokesperson confirmed the production halt, indicating that Nissan is actively reviewing its “production and supply chain operations to identify optimal solutions for efficiency and sustainability” in light of the tariffs.
In a contrasting development, Nissan also confirmed it would maintain two shifts of production for its Nissan Rogue crossover at its Smyrna, Tennessee, plant. This facility remains unaffected by the new auto tariffs, and the decision overrides earlier plans to reduce Rogue production in Smyrna to a single shift starting this month.
