About Nissan

Nissan is a Japanese automaker founded in 1933, an EV pioneer with the LEAF and a broad global range from the GT-R sports car to family crossovers.

On this page you will find the complete Nissan model range with detailed technical data, dimensions, engine and transmission information, plus genuine owner reviews. Whether you are researching Nissan specifications, comparing trims, or reading real-world Nissan reviews before you buy, our catalogue currently lists 42 Nissan models to explore.

History & Heritage

Nissan was founded in 1933 by Yoshisuke Aikawa, and is headquartered in Yokohama, Japan. Over the decades the brand has grown from its early roots into a name recognised by drivers around the world, shaped by its engineering choices, design language and the people who build and drive its cars.

Understanding a manufacturer's heritage helps put its current cars in context. Each generation of Nissan models reflects the priorities of its era, from mechanical layout and powertrain technology to safety systems and interior comfort. The specifications on this site let you trace how Nissan vehicles have evolved in size, power and equipment over time.

Mission & Vision

Mission: To enrich people's lives with innovative, exciting and accessible vehicles.

Vision: To drive the shift to electric and intelligent mobility for all.

The brand is often associated with its slogan, “Innovation that excites”, which captures the character it aims to deliver in every model.

These guiding principles influence everything from how Nissan engineers its platforms to the way it prices and equips its cars, and they are a useful lens when weighing up a Nissan against rival brands.

Design, Technology & Performance

Nissan models are described on this site with the technical detail buyers care about: engine type and displacement, transmission, drivetrain layout, wheelbase, length, width, height and kerb weight. These figures are essential when you are judging performance potential, interior space, efficiency and everyday practicality.

Comparing Nissan specifications across models makes it easy to see the trade-offs between a smaller, lighter car and a larger, more powerful one. Dimensions affect how a car parks, corners and carries passengers and luggage, while engine and transmission details hint at how it will feel to drive. Reading the numbers alongside real owner reviews gives a rounded picture before a test drive.

Buying & Ownership Guide

If you are shopping for a Nissan, it pays to research thoroughly. Look at the Nissan price for the trim you want, compare it with rivals, and check the specification sheet for the equipment that matters to you. Whether you are considering a new Nissan or a used Nissan, matching the model's dimensions and engine to your needs helps avoid buyer's remorse.

Owner reviews are one of the most valuable resources when buying a car. On each Nissan model page you can read comments from real drivers and add your own experience, covering reliability, running costs, comfort and everyday usability. Together with the detailed spec tables, these reviews help you make a confident, well-informed decision.
