In South Africa, the brand included the GO and GO+ hatchback models.
Nissan South Africa has confirmed that it no longer sells Datsun models locally.
“As part of [its] global transformation strategy, [Nissan] is focusing on core models and segments that bring the most benefit to customers, dealer partners and the business.
“We can reassure all existing and future Datsun owners that customer satisfaction remains our priority, and we will continue to provide the highest levels of aftersales service, parts availability and warranty support from our national dealership network.”
