Automotive giant Nissan had showcased the Murano Hybrid at the famous Auto Shanghai last April. The North American version of this model is now being sold in the United States (starting at $40,050) and will be likely limited to 600 units only.

Reports suggest that the 2016 Nissan Murano Hybrid will be capable of offering 29 mpg combined (highway-31 mpg and city-28 mpg). On the other hand, the all-wheel-drive version works well for 28 miles/gallon combined.

The 2016 Nissan Murano Hybrid is fitted with a 2.5-liter supercharged four-banger and also offers consistently variable transmission. The car features an electric motor (20 horsepower) which can deliver torque of nearly 118 pound-feet. The Murano Hybrid will give you a decent 249 horsepower and this almost equals the output of a 3.5 L V6 engine.

It seems that Nissan doesn’t have very high expectations as far as the sale of the new Murano Hybrid is concerned. This is why it is planning to produce only 600 units of the vehicle this year. Besides low-production numbers, this new addition can be seen as a distraction from all the green-car news that has been coming out lately (with automakers discontinuing low-selling models).

The 2016 Nissan Murano Hybrid has got its certification from The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). To know more about the latest Nissan vehicles and their features, you can visit the Coast Nissan showroom today!

2020 vision

The Goodwood Festival of Speed whisked the curtains off Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo. The car is of a radically new design and represents how Nissan made cars will look in the future. The car is conceptualized with tapping the brains behind the iconic video game Gran Turismo.

The Gran Turismo program started as a dream. It was first conceptualized by a group of designers working at Nissan offices in London. The designers are the Nissan Design Europe did not begin by trying to create a viable concept car. The original aim was to simply build a virtual car. If the original aim continued to remain, this car would simply have remained in the minds of design team members and also on the screens of gamer equipment all over the world.

However, it was not to be. The design was extremely successful. So good was the design that it came to the notice of the Nissan Technical Center’s advanced engineering team in Japan. The car was subsequently studied and put through rigorous simulations. Comprehensive technical evaluations were also made. It soon became apparent that Nissan has a perfectly viable design on its computer screens. This led Nissan the impetus to create the beautiful 3D model.

The Nissan company has subsequently announced that although it appreciated video games, the company specialize in the creation of vehicles suitable for the real world. It also said that the world is all set to welcome Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Grand Turismo.  For the best Nissan cars, drive to Coast Nissan in California.

2020 vision

The Goodwood Festival of Speed held in June 2016 unveiled Nissan’s most radical design yet for its cars: Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo. It represents a true vision of the company. The Vision Gran Turismo shows what the future vehicles of Nissan performance will look like.

Nissan created the car by collaborating with the architects behind the creators of Gran Turismo. The latter is a franchise of an extremely popular driving game. The car company was involved with the gaming company since the time the game’s first version was unleased to the public in 1998.

A virtual avatar of this car was placed into the Gran Turismo game version. Now in its sixth iteration, gamers could now discover exactly what can be possible with Concept 2020. This process is nothing new. The same ploy was followed with Nissan’s earlier models too- like GT-R, 370Z and Skyline.

The Vision Gran Turismo program started as a dream project. The dreamers were a few designers working from London at the Nissan Design Europe. The aim at that time, however, was much different. The initial action was not to create a concept car- but to simply formulate a virtual car. The car was to remain exclusively in the minds of design team members. It was also to be placed on gamer screens all over the world. The stupendous success of the design made the company’s Japan headquarters to take notice. Are you a car enthusiast? Then Nissan cars are the perfect answer. Drop in at Coast Nissan in California.

Nissan’s Zero-gravity Seat Concept

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Nissan Coast

The Zero Gravity seats developed by Nissan packs a whole lot of science. This invention was originally inspired by weightlessness of space. The human body, when faced with a zero gravity environment, takes neutral spinal posture. This puts the most minimum quantity of stress on joints and bones -and thus people becomes less tired.

Engineers at Nissan put good use of these findings -and over a span of 10 years- created Zero Gravity seats. This invention radically changed the design of the entire seat to optimize both driver and passenger comfort when it came to longer drives.

The human body, in order to reduce the muscle fatigue, slumps in a natural manner. This leads to the increase in spinal bending and puts pressure on lower back. These events even lead to much more fatigue. The seat is constructed with a total of 14 distributed pressure points designed to place the driver in neutral position.

The seat has a unique shape. The structure is patented. It offers continuous support from the hips and continues all way to the shoulders. The design is natural and ergonomic. It assists to maximize the flow of blood. Energy levels are also kept up.

Prior to the development of the Zero Gravity seat, the concept was pushed through rigorous tests using driving simulators. Both overnight and distance evaluations were also made. Biomechanical analysis was also done. The list of testers included both sexes and of different body types. Got to have a Nissan car? Do not fret. Simply come over to Coast Nissan in California.

Nissan Coast

The Nissan Kicks has become quite popular among the masses and those in love with the awesome hatchbacks that Nissan is known for. Some of the special features of the Nissan Kicks include a floating roof with what is called a ‘wrap around visor’ – which we will go into in more detail later on, a state of the art infotainment system and surprisingly spacious rear seats for the passengers.

The exteriors – here’s a little bit about the exterior design of the Nissan Kicks

Staying true to the Kicks concept adopted by Nissan, the exterior body boasts a classy and chic greyish-silver finish with a hint of burnt orange on the ‘floating’ roof of the car. The roof has been described as floating because it gradually droops down on the waistline of either side of the car. The ‘wrap around visor’ effect is caused due to the burnt orange finish on the roof that wraps around the sides of the hood or roof of the car to create a wrap around effect on the top of the car doors.

The interiors – the ‘gliding wing’ dashboard is characterized by the rim that curves around the top of the dashboard and slowly transitions into a styling line on the trims of each door. This gives passengers the feeling that they’re sitting inside a bubble. The two-tone color scheme – light brown seats, front facing dash and the insert looks very classy against the rest of the black interiors.

Visit Coast Nissan today and try out the Kicks.
