Nissan Armada New Cars

The Nissan Armada is Nissan's full-size SUV. It shares its body-on-frame F-Alpha platform with the Nissan Titan pickup truck, Nissan Xterra SUV, Nissan Frontier pickup truck, and Nissan Pathfinder SUV. An upscale version of the Armada is sold as the Infiniti QX56. All Armadas are currently built in Canton, Mississippi.

The rear door handles are installed on the "C" pillar as a Nissan design tradition started with the 1986 Nissan Pathfinder. When the four door Pathfinder was introduced, Nissan chose to conceal the door handles as a part of the "C" pillar trim to visually make it appear like a two door truck with a camper shell, with conventional door handles on the front doors.

Nissan Altima Hybrid 2009

The Altima hybrid was necessarily to clear average fuel economy regulations in California. But, Nissan has been working to create their own hybrid technology and to make it as good as the one available on the market.

Toyota, starting with Prius sedan was inventing hybrid cars and now are very popular around the world, but remain a niche product, even on the US market. They are making up to less than 2% of new US vehicle sales, although this is their biggest market.

Nissan Rogue 2008

For starters, the Rogue is a heck of a value, important to young folks saddled with student loans and expensive jeans to pay for. Rogue prices range from $19,995 for the front-drive version in base S trim to $22,735 for an SL-equipped AWD. Both are a steal, with the AWD, in particular, representing a lot of capability for the money. Value argument

New Nissan Altima Coupe

The Nissan Altima (pronounced /ˈɔːltɨmə/; Japanese: 日産・アルティマ) is a series of mid-size (originally compact) automobiles manufactured by Nissan, and is arguably a continuation of the Nissan Bluebird line, which began in 1957. It has historically been larger, more powerful, and more luxurious than the Nissan Sentra but less so than the Nissan Maxima. The Altima is available in North America as well as the Middle East. In other markets, Nissan sells a related mid-size sedan called the Nissan Teana, built on the same FF-L platform used by the 2002–2006 Nissan Altima.

Nissan Silvia S15 Cars

The Nissan Silvia is the name given to the company's long-running line of sport coupes based on the Nissan S platform. Although recent models have shared this chassis with other vehicles produced by Nissan (most notably the European 200SX and North American 240SX in the S13 and S14 generations, and 180SX in the Japanese market), the name Silvia is not interchangeable with the chassis codes.

Nissan Versa Review 2009

Nissan dropped off a brand new 2008 Versa SL hatchback at the AutoblogGreen garage for a week's worth of commuting and grocery fetching. The Versa was introduced to the US market in mid-2006 as a 2007 model to fill the slot that opened up below the Sentra when that car did what so many cars do and grew larger and better equipped. At the time the Nissan said the Versa was built off their B-platform which implied that this was a B-Class or sub-compact car on a par with the Honda Fit.

The first few times I saw a Versa on the road it certainly appeared smaller than it actually is. As we all know appearances can be deceiving and the Versa's size proved to be no exception when I climbed behind the wheel. Nissan's new baby is in fact a C-Class car measuring within a half inch of a 2007 Ford Focus hatchback with one notable exception. The Versa stands 3.6 inches taller giving this car a cavernous interior for its class. The Fit, by comparison, comes in nearly a foot shorter overall and six inches shy in wheelbase.

Nissan Altima Recalls 2010

Nissan North America has just announced that it will recall of 26,398 2009 and 2010 model year Maxima and Altima sedans. The recall was issued jointly by Nissan and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The recall was made due to a probable faulty suspension component.

According to the NHTSA, the recall is due to a potentially faulty upper front strut insulator “Due to a manufacturing defect, the strut insulator could crack, allowing the strut rod to come out of position. If this happens, vehicle stability could be affected, increasing the risk of crash.”

Starting October 5, Nissan dealers will be replacing both right and left front strut insulator on effected vehicles. As of the moment no accident has been reported linked to the recall.
