Ficosa has been selected by Renault-Nissan to supply automatic shifter systems for its next generation small segment vehicles.

Ficosa will commercialise and produce these products for the markets of Europe, Nafta, Mercosur and Asia. The Japanese company Fuji Kiko will produce volumes of the shifter for the Chinese and Japanese markets and Ficosa said that the supply agreement is a direct result of the collaboration between the companies involved.

Ficosa CEO Xavier Pujol said that the nomination of Ficosa as sole supplier for automatic shifter systems “reflects the commitment of our company with innovaton and growth in rising geographical areas such as Nafta or Mercosur”.
