Nissan Motor said Tuesday that it would exit Russia and book a loss equivalent to $686 million, the latest car maker to respond to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The Japanese auto maker said it would sell all shares of its Russia unit to Moscow-based Central Research and Development Automobile and Engine Institute for one euro, or slightly less than a dollar. Nissan said it retained the option to buy back the entity and its operations within the next six years.
