The Japanese automaker and its advertising agencies have come up with a clever way to promote its latest commercial vans – in their latest campaign, Nissan decided to focus on their rugged testing procedures to showcase the van line’s toughness and resilience, traits that Bret Michaels has come to embody in recent years. Michaels is a popular TV star and is mostly known for his role as the lead singer in the band Poison. After several scary health issues, Michaels has proven to be a warrior and in a 80s ballad of “Endless Love” commercial with the latest Nissan van line, delivers one message: “The tougher we test them, the more you love them – Tough Love.” If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Nissan Motor Co. plans to boost sales and profitability in the United States, Nissan’s largest market. After Mazda reported an excessive gain in the North American market, Nissan plans to close in on their Japanese rival. In this year’s second quarter, Nissan posted a 4.3% gain in operating profit margin compared to last year. Overall, in the first six months of the year, Nissan’s sales grew 12.8% – making it the best sixth-bestselling automaker in the country. Nissan’s sales boost came after the hire of Jose Munoz, who took over the company’s struggling North American operations in January. Under his guidance, Nissan began a new incentive program for its dealers which incentivizes for longer-term sales growth. “That is helping boost motivation and together with the help of new cars, we are seeing growth in vehicle volume,” he said. “But North America still has profitability potential and this just marks the beginning of improvements.” If you would like to read the full article please click on the link below:

Nissan drew in a lot of attention last summer when it became the first major auto manufacturer to give a time-frame for its commercial rollout of self-driving cars by 2020. Nissan did this the same way they announced years earlier with electric vehicles. The first time around, their announcement made them the industry’s leader in the latest cutting-edge automotive technology. Almost a year after Nissan’s self-driving vehicle announcement, Carlos Ghosn, Nissan’s CEO, has taken a step back and commented, “Self-driving cars remain a long way from commercial reality.” However Google seems to be on top of things in this arena. The search-engine giant has a real chance of transforming this great idea into a reality. Additionally, with Nissan’s recent step back, Google can take their time smoothening out all the wrinkles.

The Japanese automaker continues to revamp its GT-R model every model-year. Since it was first introduced in 2009, the GT-R has been updated in a number of ways and the 2015 Nissan GT-R is no exception. Regardless of the chassis calibration, upping of horsepower, and sharpening of steering, one thing remains the same – the GT-R continues to deliver amazing power. With a softener suspension this year, there should be an improved grip on track. Furthermore, the new model features an active-noise-cancellation system, fat Dunlop tires and a six-speed dual clutch automatic transmission.
