Nissan warns its Sunderland plant in the UK would be ‘unsustainable’ without an EU trade deal
The UK's largest car manufacturing plant is "unsustainable" if the UK leaves the European Union without a trade deal, owner Nissan says.
If no trade deal is reached, cars made in the UK and exported to the EU would be subject to a 10 per cent tariff.
