The redesigned Nissan Titan was redesigned by Diane Allen, the original designer of the Titan pickup truck in 2002. Allen has been with Nissan for nearly thirty years where she is known for her tremendous efforts with the original Titan pickup and its redesign. In a recent interview, Allen stated that  for the model refresh she really wanted to focus on the small details; she said: “We didn’t want it to be stylish. When you think of stylish, you think of more of feminine line work. Feminine detailing. That’s not the Titan. In the three years we’ve been working on it, there were two year where it was the most important project we had. And yet at the same time, we were also working on the new Maxima and the next Sentra, and also an Infiniti.” If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Nissan’s global sales have decreased 1.8% year-over-year and Nissan’s global production in November also decreased to 434,202 units. Regardless of the decrease in production, Nissan North America Senior Vice President, Fred Diaz, said: “Through November, Nissan has set an all-time yearly sales record in 2014.” Nissan plans to expand production at its Mississippi plant by improving the efficiency of auto part arrivals to the assembly line; because the Canton plant is distant from the auto industry, Nissan plans to have its most critical suppliers close by to avoid disruption and improve the overall efficiency. Having auto part suppliers close by could increase efficiency and raise the facilities total yearly capacity. If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Nissan has announced that it is on its way to the 24 Hours of Le Mans this year with a new race car set for the Super Bowl. There has been an enormous amount of speculation regarding the new race car and its design. Rumors are it will feature a front-mid-engine, hybrid powertrain, although Nissan has yet to confirm. The race car is said to feature a longer snout compared to the other LMP1 class prototypes and the idea of hosting a front-mid engine car has given rise to several interesting packaging rumors. Nissan has been testing their LMP1 racer at the Nissan Technical Center in Arizona and the technical details on the new car have been kept under wraps.

Life is easier when you can bring everything you need. The Versa Sedan’s oversized trunk means there’s no need to compromise. If you have a gig after work – no problem! You can load your kit in and keep it safe and out of sight. Inside, versatile storage options get things organized with places for all of your essentials – even those lucky drumsticks. When Nissan engineers were designing the Versa’s interior, they pushed the wheels to the corners, allowing the suspension to move out and away from the cabin. This resulted in plenty of leg room for all passengers or more convenient storage area with the rear fold-down seats. With available 60/40 split fold-down rear seats, the Versa gives you real flexibility carrying people and cargo. The huge pass-through means tall and wide items are always welcome along for the ride.

The Renault-Nissan Alliance sold its 200,000^th zero emission car last month and the its most popular EV only launched four years ago. The Nissan LEAF is by far the top selling electric vehicle worldwide and sales are up by 20% this year. Carlos Ghosn, the alliance CEO, believes that people are switching to EV’s for several reasons; the first is that they are convenient. They can be refueled at home or at the office from multiple energy sources. Along those same lines, EV’s are economical – even with gasoline prices falling, Consumer Reports recently estimated operating costs of a Nissan LEAF in the United States at 3.5 cents per mile. Lastly, Carlos believes that EV’s are fun and reliable: Globally, the Nissan and Renault EVs have the highest customer satisfaction rates than any same brand vehicle.
