The strategic partnership between the Renault-Nissan Alliance and Daimler AG is maturing as it enters its seventh year in 2016. As part of this strategic partnership, the joint development of the Mercedes-Benz pick-up truck is on track. The new pickup will share some of its architecture with the all-new Nissan NP300, and is being engineered and designed by Daimler to meet the specific needs of its customers in Europe, Australia, South Africa and Latin America. The vehicle will have all of Mercedes-Benz’ distinctive characteristics and features. Production will take place at the Renault plant in Cordoba, Argentina, and at Nissan’s Barcelona plant in Spain, where the Nissan NP300 Frontier and the Renault Alaskan will also be produced. Further insights into the new pick-up truck’s design, strategy and markets will be soon revealed.
