As it looks to increase its market share in the luxury segment, Nissan is reportedly considering a second North American plant to manufacture Infiniti vehicles.

While the site and timing have yet to be determined, Nissan officials in Japan recently met with Canadian Industry Minister Christian Paradis, who encouraged the automaker to build an Infiniti plant in Canada.

Infiniti products are currently assembled in Japan and the U.S., although the plant in Smyrna, Tennessee, only makes one Infiniti model -- the JX crossover.
