Nissan Cars

Nissan, a Japanese automaker, was sold under the Datsun brand name until 1983 when the Datsun badge was dropped. The third largest car manufacturer in Japan today, in the last few years Nissan has made the sales comeback of the past decade. Thanks to their innovative designs such as the Altima, 350Z and Xterra; as well as increased sales in their luxury Infiniti division they have been able to revitalize the once struggling company.

News on Nissan Cars

Despite recent successes, Nissan is at work changing its product offerings slightly to cater to consumer demand. The automaker has stated that it does not believe hybrids make good business sense because they are too expensive, but will produce a hybrid Altima in 2007. The automaker is looking to add a smaller crossover for the 2008 or 2009 model year, based on the Versa, to beef up its small car offerings. Also, Nissan is looking into launching a full-sized van to compete with GM and Ford's mainstays, which hold nearly 95 percent of market share.
