World's Strongest Man champion pulls a dozen Nissan Note hatchbacks to set record |
|
Dec 06, 2013 - 8:07 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Budget, Etc., Europe, Videos, Hatchback, Nissan
On December 1, Zydrunas Savickas, a five-time World's Strongest Man champion, pulled 12 Nissan Notes (the equivalent to our Versa Note) weighing 28,530 pounds over 16.4 feet in 32.9 seconds. The feat, performed in Lithuania at the end of the country's Car of the Year test camp, was enough to secure him the Guinness world record for "Most Cars Pulled By One Man."
"Once I got into my stride pulling the 12 Nissan Notes, [it] was fine," Savickas said after the pull. "Obviously, a big thank you... [Read More]

Nissan leaning on JATCO to remedy CVT problems |
|
Dec 02, 2013 - 9:40 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Budget, Technology, Nissan
Nissan's decision to fit continuously variable transmissions across even more of its new models may be coming back to bite the Japanese automaker, as it's been hampered by customer satisfaction issues relating to its XTronic CVTs, which are provided by a supplier called JATCO.
From what we're understanding, the issue largely relates to customers' unfamiliarity with the non-traditional shift nature of a CVT. Dealers have reported complaints and service visits from owners over the belt-driven automatics (did these people not test drive the cars before they bought them and notice that they don't shift conventionally?).
The company, which ... [Read More]

Electric Federal searches for what made the Datsun 240Z great |
|
Dec 02, 2013 - 5:50 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Classics, Coupe, Performance, Videos, Nissan
We may take it for granted now that the Japanese make great sports cars, whether it's a Mazda MX-5 or a Lexus LFA. But back in the late 1960s and well into the '70s, it all came down to one car, and that was the Datsun 240Z.
The prototypical Japanese sports car and ancestor to the Nissan 370Z we know and love today, the original Fairlady Z came at a time when the market for small, nimble sportscars was dominated by Europeans. It would go on to earn its place in the pantheon of classic sports cars, particularly as those who remember... [Read More]

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs |
|
Dec 01, 2013 - 9:30 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Technology, Chevrolet, Nissan, Electric
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
Meanwhile, Navigant's Electric Vehicle Survey found that 67 percent of those surveyed had a favorable opinion on hybrids while 61 percent thought... [Read More]

Best-selling vehicles by state show F-Series isn't king everywhere |
|
Dec 01, 2013 - 5:12 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Car Buying, Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Honda, Nissan, Toyota
The Ford F-Series is hands down the best-selling vehicle in the US, but as it turns out, there are plenty of states where the truck doesn't reign supreme. Business Insider compiled data from Kelley Blue Book based on 2013 sales figures from January through August to create a map of the top-selling vehicles in each of the 50 states and Washington, D.C. Looking at the map, Ford's truck is the top vehicle in 34 states, but there are states - some surprising, some not - where other vehicles are more popular among consumers.
After Ford's pickup, it's a battle among midsize sedans, with the ... [Read More]

Nissan NV200 recalled over wiring harness |
|
Nov 29, 2013 - 10:06 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Minivan/Van, Recalls, Work, Nissan
The Nissan NV200, the van that's meant to act as the backbone of the New York City taxi fleet, is being recalled. Compared to some of the recalls we've seen this year, the 2,529 NV200s needing repairs is not a particularly huge deal - but try telling that to their inconvenienced owners and drivers.
The recall affects NVs built between February 6, 2013, and August 2, 2013. The vans in question... [Read More]

Man sells testicle to buy Nissan 370Z |
|
Nov 27, 2013 - 11:56 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Car Buying, Coupe, Performance, Etc., Nissan
We aren't entirely sure what's stranger about this story - that a man actually sold a vital piece of his manhood for a car, or that he did it for a Nissan 370Z. That's not to discredit the trusty Fairlady, a car we generally like, but that if we were to do what Mark Parisi did and sell one of his testicles to science, we'd be asking for a helluva lot more than $35,000.
But Parisi did just that, and announced live on CBS' The Doctors (we really can't make this up) that the sale of his nut would go towards the purchase of a Z. According to our friends Down Under (Australia, get your mind out of the gutter), $35K is the going rate for one slightly used testicle,... [Read More]

2015 Nissan GT-R [w/video] |
|
Nov 27, 2013 - 5:13 PM - by Nissan Forum
|
Filed under: Coupe, Performance, Videos, Nissan, First Drives, Luxury
Although the first Skyline GT-R from Nissan arrived in 1969, in the 46 years since, there have nearly been as many years without a GT-R as with. The first two generations were produced from 1969 to 1972, the next three generations stretched from 1989 to 2002, and the most recent (just plain GT-R in fact, not a Skyline GT-R) has so far run from 2009 to 2015. That's 25 years that the GT-R has been a member of the material world, and 21 that it has lived in purgatorio.
Yet out of those 46 years, the birth of the legend and cult of the GT-R happened primarily in five: from 1989 to 1994, when a chassis codenamed... [Read More]
