Nissan is one of the largest car manufacturers; it formerly marketed vehicles under the "Datsun" brand name. The Nissan VQ engines, of V6 configuration, have featured among Ward's 10 Best Engines for 14 straight years, since the award's inception. From 1993-2002 Nissan partnered with Ford to market a consumer-friendly minivan: The Mercury Villager and the Nissan Quest. The two minivans were manufactured with all the same parts and were virtually identical aside from several cosmetic differences. Nissan brought out a new version of the Quest in 2004, which was designed in house and no longer related to any Ford model. Nissan North America relocated its headquarters from Gardena, California to Nashville, Tennessee in July 2006.

A new headquarters, Nissan Americas, was dedicated on July 22, 2008, in Nashville, Tennessee. Approximately 1500 employees work in the facility. Nissan is planning to sell electric cars in California by 2010. The company claims to have an EV model out that has a maximum speed of 90 mph and can go 100 miles per charge. It is projected to take eight hours to fully charge the car. Nissan's car uses a lithium ion battery. The vehicle is intended for short distances, and is not meant for replacing traditional cars for long trips. As with other electric cars these products from Nissan won't emit pollutants from their exhaust. Any pollution involved in their operation would come from the production of the electricity needed to charge the car, depending on the type of power generation facility.

The Nissan Titan was introduced in 2004, as a full-size pickup truck produced for the North American market; the truck shares the stretched Nissan F-Alpha platform with the Nissan Armada and Infiniti QX56 SUVs. The Titan, introduced for 2004, was the first Japanese pickup to truly possess the attributes that buyers typically expect from a full-size truck. The most notable changes for the Nissan Titan came for the 2008 model year -- they included the addition of a long-wheelbase model, exterior and interior styling refreshes and new features. The Nissan Pathfinder is one of the few sport-utility vehicles that actually holds some appeal those interested in a truck and those interested in a car. When it debuted in the late 1980s, the Pathfinder had the trucklike qualities of rear- or four-wheel drive, sturdy body-on frame architecture, angular styling and, when equipped with four-wheel drive, genuine off-road capability. The Nissan Pathfinder evolved through the years; it became larger and more refined. Its designers made changes that allowed it to walk the line between suburban family runabout and macho, rugged rock crawler. 

For used car shoppers interested in a more car like SUV, a later model Pathfinder would appeal. The latest, third-generation Nissan Pathfinder debuted for the 2005 model year. The most notable midcycle change has been the addition of the 5.6-liter V8 engine as an option in 2008. Other changes for '08 included a revised interior and slightly tweaked styling.Nissan Used Cars Des MoinesNissan is one of the largest car manufacturers; it formerly marketed vehicles under the "Datsun" brand name.
