Going ahead, stable demand from tier-I and tier-II cities is expected.”
Nissan, which has attributed the success of the Magnite, to a combination of great features, attractive pricing, and a renewed commitment to customer-centricity, has continued to emphasise customer satisfaction across its operations. This was seen more recently in the recently concluded Nissan Quality Month initiative, which underlined Nissan’s ‘Always Think of The Customer’ value during celebrations held across Nissan’s pan-India network. Held from September 26 to November 10, 2022, the initiative focused on enhancing customer satisfaction through process excellence and continuous improvement. Nissan reinforced the campaign by extending the celebration’s focus to ‘Best in Class Sales and Service’ processes under the theme ‘MOVE Beyond’. The celebrations brought together all of Nissan’s dealership personnel, who reaffirmed their commitment to the Nissan Quality Oath, “Customer Satisfaction is our Top Priority, Always Think of The Customer First”.
