Venucia

Venucia is a Chinese passenger car marque created in September 2010 by Dongfeng Nissan to sell cars developed and designed in China for the domestic market. Its first car, the D50 saloon, reached showrooms in 2012, followed by the R50 hatchback, the e30 electric car, the T70 compact crossover and, from 2017, the D60 sedan. Most Venucia models were built on platforms shared with Nissan products of the day, among them the first generation Tiida, the Sylphy and the Qashqai. From February 2017 until the end of 2020 the marque was spun off as Dongfeng Venucia Motor Company, a separate subsidiary of Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd.; in December 2020 Dongfeng announced it would merge Venucia back into Dongfeng Nissan. Cars are assembled at plants in Guangzhou and Zhengzhou.
