Why Nissan Now? Technology.....

Accelerator Pedal Assembly

 The Nissan accelerator pedal assembly uses an enclosed housing which is not as susceptible to the effects of humidity.

 The friction pad in the Nissan accelerator pedal assembly, which generates pedal feedback, is made of a different material which is not as affected by moisture. Therefore our assembly cannot have the same issue that has been mentioned in the media as apparently causing problems in the vehicles involved in the recall.

 Nissan vehicles also have an electronic throttle-control system that recognizes when the brake and accelerator are depressed at the same time and automatically reduces engine power under these circumstances.

Key Start/Stop Button:

 Nissan's Intelligent-Key system can recognize when the driver intends to turn off the engine in conditions other than Park.

 In order to turn off a Nissan vehicle equipped with Intelligent-Key, drivers may either:

 Push the Start/Stop button three times consecutively

 Press and hold the Start/Stop button for more than two seconds

Floor mats: Floor-mat design and retention methods help keep the mats in the proper place.

 The design provides adequate clearance between the mat and the accelerator pedal.

 Floor mats have nibs on the back which help prevent properly positioned floor mats from sliding on the vehicle's carpet.

 Floor mats are specifically designed for each vehicle model to help mitigate possible interference with the pedals.

Nissan Altima Hybrid Named to "Top 10 Green Cars" by Kelly Blue Book

The Nissan Altima Hybrid, which offers the efficiency and fuel economy of a hybrid drivetrain with the performance and excitement customers have come to expect from the Altima line-up, has been named one of the “Top 10 Green Cars” by the editors of Kelley Blue Book’s kbb.com.

In compiling the list, the kbb.com editors considered factors such as comfort, performance, utility and technology, along with fuel economy and price. “The Nissan Altima Hybrid combines impressive fuel economy with much of the same sporty character that has helped establish the Altima’s reputation as one of the most fun-to-drive mid-size sedans,” said Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and executive market analyst of Kelley Blue Book’s kbb.com. “The advanced technology isn’t confined to the engine bay, either, as the Altima Hybrid offers a slew of electronic comforts and digital conveniences like push-button start, navigation with traffic info and a rearview camera.”

“The Altima Sedan has been a success with consumers offering high levels of performance, quality, and fuel efficiency,” said Al Castignetti, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division, Nissan North America, Inc. “For Altima Hybrid, we took all the best qualities from the popular Altima Sedan, added a hybrid powertrain, and not only achieved improved fuel economy but added another successful product to the Nissan line-up.”

The 2009 model year Altima Hybrid goes on sale at Nissan dealers in select markets on August 1, 2008 in states that have adopted California emissions regulations: California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont.

The Altima Hybrid, Sedan and Coupe are assembled at Nissan’s manufacturing plant in Smyrna, TN. Nissan also produces the Altima Sedan at its plant in Canton, MS.

Nissan Green Program 2010

What is the Nissan Green Program?

Nissan regards the following three issues as paramount: reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions; minimizing emissions to preserve the atmosphere, water and soil; and the recycling of resources (reduce/reuse/recycle). The Nissan Green Program is a mid-term environmental action plan with focused objectives and activities meant to tackle these three key issues. We achieved virtually all of the objectives we set for the previous plan, Nissan Green Program 2005. The Nissan Green Program 2010 sets new objectives and plans between now and 2010.

Our goal is to reduce CO2 emissions in all areas of Nissan's corporate endeavors. Our ultimate goal is to reduce the environmental impacts caused by corporate activities such as manufacturing and usage of Nissan vehicles to stay within the Earth's natural ability to absorb such impacts.
