TOKYO, July 9 (Reuters) - Nissan Motor ( NSANF ) has

suspended production of three vehicle models for Canada at its

Tennessee and Mississippi plants amid mutual tariffs imposed by

the U.S. and Canada on auto exports, the Nikkei reported on

Wednesday.

The production halt, which began in May, affects the

Pathfinder and Murano SUVs made in Tennessee and the Frontier

pickup trucks produced in Mississippi, the report said.

The Trump administration imposed 25% additional tariffs on

auto imports in April, prompting Canada to implement retaliatory

tariffs. Mazda Motor ( MZDAF ) also halted Canada-bound

production at its Alabama plant while boosting production for

the U.S. market, the company said in May.

Nissan ( NSANF ) shares were trading down 3.6% by mid-morning trade in

Tokyo.
