Nissan Motor Co. benefited from higher earnings in China, the worlds largest auto market, as the maker of the Altima sedan delivered profits that beat analyst estimates. Net income at Japans second-largest carmaker rose 37 percent to 112.1 billion yen ($1.1 billion) in the April-to-June quarter, beating the 84.3 billion yen average of 14 analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg. The Yokohama-based automaker pledged to meet its forecasts after cutting its profit projections in each of the last two years. Even so, the automaker has cut deliveries to dealers in China beginning this month, on signs inventory was building up since the end of June on intensifying competition, he said. Nissan boosted deliveries in China by 21 percent in the quarter to 283, 000 units, boosted by the X-trail SUV. The automaker will meet its full-year China target, Tagawa said.
