The Nissan Tiida, due to be launched soon in Ireland, will be priced between the Note and the recently launched Qashqai crossover.
The car is only being provided to European markets where sales of the Almera were strong. That leaves out places like Germany, and local dealers there are not pleased.
Nissan expects to sell 30,000 Tiidas a year in Europe, most of them in Russia and eastern Europe. BB.
