A lot of people are beginning to come in term with reality as to what lies ahead for us all in the nearest future. Innoson is not going to be the only indigenous automaker that will be producing made-in-Nigeria cars in the country. From the latest report, another local automaker has come into the picture, and the newly released video of its product has taken the country by storm.
The new Nord Ford is manufactured locally, specially for Nigerians
From the video, we could see the first model we were teased with by Nordmotion company is a pickup truck. If you do not look close enough, you might mistake it for a Ford F-150 Raptor. Its body aesthetic is remarkable and it sure looks strong enough for the different types of terrain. Other products from this indigenous carmaker include Nord Flit (bus), Nord Max (truck), Nord A3 (sedan) and Nord A5 (SUV).
Built in Nigeria by Nigerians for Nigeria.

Aug 19May God bless you, give you more wisdom and ability, to contribute to making Nigeria great. Our population is d market not govt with seasonal purchases. Thanks
@INTERMIDIARY_NG commented:
It looks good but is it affordable for the average Nigerians? No average Nigerian will want to spend 6 to 8Million on a made in Nigerian Car; they will rather drive a Tokubo car that is foreign brand. That's the true situation in our nation.
We believe the growth of the local auto industry will surely help the Nigerian economy, while providing more jobs for the citizens.
