The Ariya is Nissan’s flagship electric vehicle (EV) model. Its innovative technology and sophisticated design have attracted a lot of attention. But how are the Ariya’s sales and production numbers changing? In this article, we will take a detailed look at the current state of sales and production of the Ariya and consider its future.
Ariya sales figures: not all smooth sailing
Sales of the Ariya began in mid-2022. Initially, due to its innovative concept and high level of perfection, many pre-orders flooded in. However, due to the global semiconductor shortage and delays in parts supply, production was significantly delayed. This prolonged the wait time for delivery and affected sales numbers.
In 2023, the production system was strengthened and parts supply was stabilized, and sales volume gradually showed signs of recovery. However, the situation still remains well below initial expectations. Sales volume in 2024 is also expected to decline slightly.

Ariya production volume: Overcoming challenges and moving towards increased production
The Ariya is produced at Nissan’s main plant, the Tochigi Plant, but due to the aforementioned parts supply issues and the complexity of the production process specific to EVs, production capacity has not been fully utilized.
To overcome these challenges, Nissan is actively working to expand and streamline its production lines, diversify parts procurement, etc. As a result, production volume will increase from the second half of 2023, which will also help to eliminate delivery wait times.
Aria’s Future: Towards Further Growth
The Ariya is an important model in Nissan’s EV strategy, and its success will have a major impact on the future spread of EVs. The trends in sales and production volumes show that the Ariya still has many challenges to overcome.
However, Nissan sees great potential in the Ariya and is actively working to further expand sales, including by increasing production capacity, expanding its sales network, and developing charging infrastructure.
Furthermore, by taking advantage of its advanced technological capabilities and advanced features, the Ariya is expected to further evolve in areas such as autonomous driving technology and connected car services. These technological innovations will further enhance the appeal of the Ariya and lead to increased sales.
