<ul>
<li>A 2011 Nissan Titan based on the Chrysler Ram</li>
<li>A small car for Chrysler based on the Nissan Tiida (the Nissan Versa in the U.S.)</li>
<li>A compact sedan for Chrysler to sell in South American markets</li>
</ul>
<p><span id="more-66"></span>Both Nissan and Chrysler have been studying the viability of the projects in the current market conditions and concluded that it is in the best interest of both companies to terminate the partnership. However, a separate agreement to supply Chrysler with transmissions from JATCO, a Nissan affiliate, remains unchanged.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://nissan.cars-blog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/nissan-titan.jpg" alt="Nissan Titan" title="Nissan Titan" width="248" height="186" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-54" />Larry Dominique, Nissan North America’s vice president of product and advanced planning says the Japanese car maker is still interested in a partnership with Chrysler to build next-generation Titan pickup on Chrysler’s light-duty Dodge Ram 1500, now that Chrysler had emerged from bankruptcy.</p>
<p>Although Nissan launched the Nissan Titan to much acclaim in 2004, sales of the full-sized pickup truck failed to meet the company&#8217;s expectations. </p>
<p><span id="more-55"></span>Nissan had worked with Chrysler on the next-generation Titan in an attempt to reduce development and production costs, but that plan was put back by Chrysler’s forced bankruptcy earlier this year. However, Chrysler has subsequently re-emerged under control of the Fiat group, and is currently in some turmoil, as its Italian masters shake up the organization. Nonetheless, Nissan is hoping for an indication of Chrysler’s willingness to proceed with the Ram-Titan partnership. However, Nissan is considering other alternatives if that alliance does not materialize.</p>
