The reporter came to a sales store in Nissan in Tokyo. Although it was Sunday, because of the recent delay in delivery and suspension of ordering, almost no guests came to consult a car.

On the 1st of this month, Nissan announced that it would listen to the prices of the main models of pure electric vehicles. At present, Nissan Listening Wind is priced at about 180,000 yuan in Japan, which will continue to maintain this price until the 22nd of this month. However, the order will be suspended on the 23rd, and the price after the sales will be announced after the sales will be restarted.

There are three main reasons for Nissan's prices. First of all, affected by the situation of Russia and Ukraine, the prices of lithium as the main raw material of the vehicle battery once rose to 6 times last year, and the price of nickel was more than twice last year.

Secondly, the prices of raw materials such as steel and aluminum commonly used on cars have also risen significantly.

Third, the cost of logistics has also skyrocketed.

Not only Nissan, but also many Japanese companies such as Subaru, Mitsubishi, and Mazda have also increased their prices to some models in the near future, an increase of about 2%to 3%. Subaru's chief financial officer also bluntly stated in the near future that the price increase of new cars is to offset the cost of raw materials that are constantly soaring.

In addition, according to Japanese media reports, Toyota Motors has recently reached an agreement with the steel supplier of the vehicle, the purchase price of the steel -made iron -making, and the purchase price per ton of steel will be increased by about 2,000 yuan, which is two to 30 % from half a year ago. The increase has also reached a new high in 12 years.

In the US market, the price of Toyota's main models has increased by about RMB 2,500, but in Japan, Toyota has not yet passed the cost to the cost.
