The company will also cut its annual operating profit forecast by 70% to $975 million, marking its second downward revision this year, after Operating profit for its second-quarter tumbled 85%, which is well below expectations.
Nissan joins a growing number of foreign automakers that struggling in China, as competition intensifies from Chinese manufacturers in the electric vehicle market.
However, second quarter sales have also been sluggish in the U.S, falling almost 3% to about half a million vehicles.
Together, China and the U.S. account for nearly half of Nissan's global sales by volume.
