TOKYO -- Nissan is pushing back the release date of the electric Ariya B6 SUV again due to a global shortage of semiconductors and other supply chain disruptions, the automaker said.
The Ariya, Nissan's second EV-only model after the Leaf hatchback, will now go on sale on May 12 in Japan, the company said on Monday. Nissan had most recently flagged a late-March launch.
The Ariya was originally slated for a mid-2021 launch but was delayed by COVID-related chip shortages. Sales in Europe are due to start this summer and the United States in the autumn, Nissan has said.
A limited-edition version of the SUV went on sale in Japan as planned in January.
Nissan pioneered mass-market EVs with the Leaf in 2010.
