JAPANESE manufacturers Nissan, Lexus and Mazda have commissioned EurotaxGlass’s International to provide long term residual value forecasts for their new car launches.

EurotaxGlass’s Market Intelligence Unit will provide car-to-market studies for the Nissan 350Z Roadster, the Mazda5 and the Lexus RX400h, GS range and forthcoming IS range. The RV analysis will be used to help refine product planning, sales and marketing strategies.
