Which country does Dongfeng Nissan originate from?

Dongfeng Nissan is a joint venture between China's Dongfeng Motor Corporation and Japan's Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. Nissan Motor produces vehicles, with the Nissan brand being a Japanese car brand, while the Venucia brand is Dongfeng Nissan's independent brand, classified as either a joint venture or Chinese brand. Dongfeng Nissan covers various segments including compact cars, midsize cars, large and midsize cars, MPVs, and SUVs. Taking the Dongfeng Nissan Sylphy as an example, Here are the powertrain and configurations of the Dongfeng Nissan Sylphy: Sylphy's Powertrain: Equipped with a 1.6L inline-four naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 99kW and maximum torque of 159Nm. Sylphy's Configurations: The 2022 Sylphy focuses on upgraded configurations, featuring the new NissanConnect Super Intelligent CCS2.0 system for vehicle connectivity. Compared to previous models, voice commands now offer more convenient control over music, navigation, sunroof, windows, and the navigation system. Additionally, the 2022 Sylphy introduces a wake-up function for frequently used commands.
This is quite an interesting question. Dongfeng Nissan is a Sino-Japanese joint venture automaker, strictly speaking, it counts as domestically produced Chinese cars. Having repaired cars for over a decade, I've noticed their VINs all start with 'L', which according to international standards is the production code for China. Although the technology originates from Japan, models like the Qashqai and Teana assembled in Wuhan, Zhengzhou, and Dalian factories now even use domestically produced engines with HR/MR series codes. However, imported right-hand drive vehicles are a different story. I remember disassembling a new Sylphy last year, and all the part labels were from the Xiangyang factory in Hubei.
