Since the founding of the Nissan Diesel Motor Company in Japan during 1935, the company has continuously endeavoured to build and maintain a reputation for innovation and excellence in its UD truck brand.
In 2000 Nissan Diesel introduced new heavy-duty trucks in Japan and Asian countries. It also acquired the sales operation from Nissan Diesel Sales Co., Ltd. In 2003, Nissan Motor and Nissan Diesel reached a basic agreement on a light-duty truck joint venture.
Nissan Diesel is now owned by the Volvo Group who purchased 13% of the company from Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. in 2006.
