Nissan will build an engine plant at its industrial complex in Resende in Rio de Janeiro state. The engine factory, which required a $60 million investment, will churn out 200,000 four-cylinder 1.6 flexfuel engines a year and will create 200 direct jobs. The Resende complex, now nearing completion, employs 1,500 workers and will have more than 2,000 in the second half of this year, with the aim of producing 200,000 vehicles a year.
