Nissan’s Hydraulic Body Motion Control

May 16, 2016 By Admin

Hydraulic Body Motion Control – HBMC is Nissan’s new suspension technology particularly designed for full-size SUVs to assist in balancing on-road ride comfort and driving performance with off-road ability. The technology was used first in Nissan’s Patrol and later in Infiniti QX.

Nissan’s HBMC helps decrease body lean when turning for a more comfortable drive. Using hydraulic cylinders situated at the shock absorbers, it modifies roll stiffness by permitting fluid transfer between the right and left sides of the car via passive weight transfer at times of normal driving.

The technology features two hydraulic systems linked by cross-link pipes to the hydraulic cylinders of the four-wheel independent suspension. This absorbs the bumps on the street and helps in reducing the body lean while cornering. It assists in minimizing fluctuation of view of passengers on board and gives a comfortable drive. It doesn’t need a source of power as in the case of other similar systems and so there’s no compromise with its fuel efficiency.

Fluid present in the two external wheel hydraulic cylinders circulates to the accumulator and increases the roll stiffness of the suspension. It compromises the centrifugal force, decreasing the level of sinking on the outer side of the car and assisting to reduce the occupant variation of view.

The suspension for individual wheel increases or falls as per conditions of the road, absorbing the vibrations that are caused due to off-road holes and bumps.

What you need to know when buying a used Nissan?

May 13, 2016 By Admin

Posted in General, Uncategorized

Japanese car maker Nissan Motor Company has become one of the leading brands for reliable vehicles. Although most people would prefer to buy a brand new car, used cars are not a bad idea if you are a little tight on cash and do not want to invest heavily in a new vehicle. Nissan has maintained a reputation of designing very durable and reliable vehicles. Even if these cars are over a decade old, they are still in excellent running condition. However, there are a few aspects you will need to focus on when you are considering buying a used Nissan.

First things first, you need to check the performance of Nissan. When you find a used Nissan available for sale, read up on what the car’s specifications are. Learn about the engine, power delivery, and transmission it offers. When you test-drive the car, you can gauge if it is in its best running condition. Consult a professional mechanic with the car for a more detailed assessment.

The fuel economy of a vehicle is also one of its biggest selling points. A car’s mileage would have decreased over time, but not too much. A very low mileage could be indicative of an engine issue. Another area to focus on is the Nissan’s handling and driving ease. If it is a large car, like the Murano or Xterra, you will need more experience with handling the vehicle.

Check out the wide range of used Nissan cars and SUVs available at the Coast Nissan dealership.

Posted in General, Uncategorized

Japanese car manufacturer Nissan Motor Company has built a reputation for itself for designing cars that are efficient, easy on the pocket, safe, and environmentally friendly. Thanks to their superior models, this brand has climbed the ranks to becoming the sixth-largest car maker in the world.

When you are considering the purchase of a Nissan car or SUV, you have to first decide what model suits you best. Undoubtedly, every one of Nissan’s products is world-class and is equipped with cutting-edge features, but you still have to narrow your choices down. Here are some tips that could help you decide on the right Nissan for you:

The first thing on your agenda is to learn of the models’ features. If you can bring your choices down to a handful, it will become much easier for you to understand and compare features. Some of the features you need to focus on are exteriors, interiors, safety, and engine options. Once you have all the features on hand, you could easily decide which car checks all or most of your boxes. Another feature is the fuel economy of the vehicle. A lower mileage can slowly eat through your wallet.

Your next step in deciding on your perfect Nissan is by deciding between a new or a used car. Nissan makes durable and reliable vehicles, so you do not have to think twice about buying a used car if you cannot afford a brand new one. You could contact a few dealerships for what models they are selling and their respective price tags.

Once you have completed these steps, you are pretty much set to making the right choice. Visit Coast Nissan to learn more about the new and used models of Nissan cars and SUVs available for sale.

Nissan plans to Create Cars that can Operate in Sub-Zero Temperatures

May 9, 2016 By Admin

Posted in General, Uncategorized

When the temperature drops and it finally starts snowing, every car owner knows that it is time to bring out the winter tires. These tires need to be stable, sturdy, and be able to handle tough winter terrain. Most car makers are constantly trying to upgrade their winter accessories to make driving during those harsh months simpler and safer.

Japanese automobile manufacturer Nissan Motor Company is one of those brands. Considering how harsh the winters in North America can be, Nissan has released some aggressive models to take on the snow, ice, and drifts. With the upcoming 2016 Chicago Auto Show, Nissan is all set to demonstrate three new versions of its already popular crossovers – the Pathfinder, Murano, and Rogue. These three custom “Winter Warrior” crossovers are capable of tackling even the worst winters North America has experienced.

With the Winter Warrior additions, Nissan is looking to enhance the crossovers’ advanced systems, adding special snow tracks, custom exteriors, and genuine Nissan accessories. They feature heavy-duty track systems that come with matte-black finish frames. The Dominator Tracks are 30 inches high, 48 inches long, and 15 inches wide. These are fitted to replace the cars’ tires and wheels. The vehicles’ wheel wells and suspensions have been modified to fit the snow tracks. The drivetrain components are brand new.

The Winter Warrior was designed by Nissan Design America with a custom matte red-chrome body that features unique track designs as well as a “Winter Warrior” signage. These additions are expected to boost the sales of Nissan crossovers.

Once a year, the NSBE recognizes a company from the NSBE board of Corporate Affiliates for its outstanding contribution and unending support to the accomplishments and goals of the NSBE and its members.

NSBE’s Executive Director, Karl W.

Nissan Continues to be as Reliable as the Best Cars in the World

April 25, 2016 By Admin

Posted in General, Uncategorized

Many people often have a pertinent query when they are planning to purchase a new vehicle from Nissan. Is it as reliable as compared to other brands such as Toyota and Honda? Actually, the answer is not as simple as it seems. That’s because there are many factors that should be considered before replying to this query such as what model, make and year of manufacturer you are trying to compare between them. One thing is sure. Nissan is as reliable as its rivals Honda and Toyota for vehicles in the same segments.

If you are focused about the maintenance of your vehicle’s engine, then a Nissan vehicle is the most preferred one. The reason is that most of Nissan’s variants have timing chains as opposed to the belts for Toyota or Honda.

You need to do a bit of a research so that you get proper clarity on the common issues that are prevalent in cars if you are not planning to go for a brand new car.

If you take any of these three manufacturers into consideration, they all manufactured cars in the mid-nineties that were rated quite highly and needed decent maintenance even after going for 200 to 200k miles or even over that. However, if you go a decade ahead into the future for any of these cars, you can find that there had been drastic changes in the cars of all of these three manufacturers.

If you want to test drive a Nissan, you can drop in at Coast Nissan.
