Nissan has revealed the Pitch-R at the UEFA Champion's League final in Kiev this week, which uses self-driving technology to draw soccer fields "wherever there is space".
We’ve all been there. You'll be driving along when the check tire pressure light illuminates, or you come out to your car to notice one tire looks a little low. Not everyone has an air compressor in the garage, so they head to the gas station and fill up there. You have to check the door label to see what the correct pressure is before filling up. The air pump either has a digital gauge where you can set the amount of air to put into the tire or a manual one where you have to check the pressure continuously. However, they’re not always reliable and can give erroneous readings. Nissan is trying to uncomplicate filling your tires by taking out the guesswork of when your tires are correctly inflated with its Easy Fill Tire Alert system.
Well, it’s safe to say no one saw this coming. As real as yesterday’s weird Honda Civic Type R Pickup Truck, the Nissan Leaf Open Car is what happens when you take the electric five-door hatchback and chop off its roof along with the rear doors. Why in the world would Nissan do such a thing? To celebrate a pretty important sales milestone at home in Japan where deliveries of the pure electric hatch have reached the nice round number of 100,000.
Automatic Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Warning, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert is now standard on every trim level of the Nissan Rouge Sport, including the S FWD that starts at $22,110 excluding $975 for the destination and handling. For the S AWD, the automaker charges a premium of $1,350 for the 2018.5 model year.
The new generation of the Nissan Leaf has been barely introduced in 2017, and it has already received over 20,000 orders across Europe alone. In its nearly eight years of existence, the single electric vehicle in the Nissan lineup has arrived in the garages of 300,000 people across the world.
Carlos Ghosn does not rule out the possibility of mergers among members of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance but said this was not necessarily a goal.
