Nissan Lithium-Ion Electric Car
 Concept cars are intended to be thought provoking. Nissan's NuVu, or 'New View,' city car concept is just that. It may make you smile, laugh, do a double-take, shake your head, draw you in for a closer look, or all of the above. One thing you can't do, however, is ignore it. NuVu is nothing short of a complete rethinking of the car's role in an urban environment. It's not designed for highway use or cross-country travel, but rather just zipping around on congested city streets and squeezing into...

Downsizing the right way: 2009 Nissan Maxima replaces size with style | detnews.com | The Detroit News

There's always a silver lining -- even if it's a tarnished silver plated one. Optimism, you see, is free. The 2009 Nissan Maxima makes me optimistic. Finally, a big sedan undergoes a redesign and comes out smaller. Nissan chopped off nearly 4 inches in...

MotiveMagazine Nissan 370z VS. Porsche Cayman S
You didn't used to be like this, Nissan. Up until the GT-R arrived this year, and with the exception of the 370Z's predecessor, you've spent the last decade building modest SUVs, trucks, and sedans for the masses. Sure, there have been a few hot compacts in there, but your latest Sentra SE-Rs haven't exactly set the enthusiast world ablaze. Now it's all Porsche this, Nürburgring that. It's like we don't even know you anymore. Then, just when it seems like GT-R-a-palooza is dying down, here comes the...
