Check out this QX56 (now QX80) assembly line video

Interesting. I'd like to see one of the new QX56/QX80, that would be interesting, especially when compared to this to see how they have changed and improved over time.

shouldn't really be many changes

The car hasn't changed much over the years

Where is the QX80 manufactured? Looks like Michigan to me, but I could be wrong.

Are these older models of the QX80 or are they the newest models?

I believe its made in the USA.

Not entirely sure where.

that's something we need to find out.
i miss the days of japanese vehicles being made in Japan rather than made elsewhere. not something i favor much.

I think it makes most sense to center manufacturing in the region where the cars will be delivered to. Why build a car in Japan and then ship it to North America? I don't think that it affects quality that much either.

It says on Wikipedia that the QX80 is built in Yukuhashi, Japan, the Nissan Shatai Kyushu Plant.

yea makes sense its manued in Japan, LOL the first clue should of been all the Japanese workers in the video Unless michigan has a disproportionately high Asian population....

interesting. i swear it was made in north america.

learn something new everyday.

Hopefully it stays that way with the next generation model.
I would hate to see them make this flagship SUV of theirs in some nation other than Japan. Flagship models should be made in their mother land.
