Awesome Nissan

Nissan Design America teamed up with master chef Hiroyuki Terada to create this elegant handcrafted sushi knife from Japanese knifemaker Satoshi Kiryu. Its sleek, katana-like design was inspired by the Nissan 240Z and its modern descendant, the Z NISMO. It features a razor-sharp 210mm double-beveled blade, curved to reflect the sport’s car’s profile.

Are you looking for a three-row SUV that can shuttle the kids to school and also take them on weekend adventures? The 2025 Nissan Pathfinder Rock Creek takes Nissan’s substantial family SUV and cranks up the fun factor, offering extra capability and attitude for those who like to wander off the beaten path.

The 2025 Nissan Armada is new from head to toe. The 3-row SUV will come in five trims, including a rugged new PRO-4X and a luxury Platinum Reserve. It’s powered by a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 with 425 hp and 516 lb-ft. of torque and can tow 8,500 lb. It has a refined new interior offering the latest tech, such as dual 14.3″ screens, Google built-in, and more.

Our friend Tim Esterdahl from Pickup Truck +SUV Talk took a 180-mile road trip in the all-electric 2024 Nissan Ariya. He had a lot of ground to cover in the Ariya, facing the battery-busting trifecta of cold weather, high speeds, and elevation gains. You can see the stress on his face as he shares his experiences. But was his range anxiety justified?

The current-gen Nissan Z is the best it’s ever been – with great power, crisp handling, and slick modern looks that pay homage to Nissan’s classic sports cars. For the ultimate Z car, you’ll want the Z NISMO, which provides faster acceleration, stiffer suspension, aerodynamic enhancements, and other goodies that make the Z more track-ready than ever.

Sporty might not be the first word that pops into your head when you think of the Nissan Altima, but the 2.0 SR model surpassed our expectations. The top-of-the-heap for Nissan’s mid-size sedan has a zippy turbocharged engine, a performance-tuned suspension, and sport wheels. It’s no supercar, but we came away entertained after a week behind the wheel.

Adventurers Chris and Julie Ramsey drove a Nissan Ariya EV from the North Pole to Antarctica. The crossover covered about 30,000 km over ten months, with its only major modification being jumbo 39-inch tires to help it traverse extreme terrain. The duo relied on a mix of public charging infrastructure and a support team in remote locations to recharge the EV.

The Nissan Ariya NISMO is faster than the already zippy Ariya e-4ORCE models. Its electric 4WD system makes up to 429 hp and 442 lb-ft. of torque with its 91 kWh battery pack. It’s tricked out with aerodynamic upgrades, a sport-tuned chassis, 20-inch aluminum wheels, and a microsuede interior. Coming to Japan in Spring 2024, but no U.S. release date yet.

The current-generation Nissan GT-R (R35) has been around for quite some time now, but it’s still a fantastic sports car. The 2023 GT-R is as fun to drive and attention-grabbing as ever. Other vehicles may have surpassed the GT-R’s specs and tech, but Godzilla can still hold its own in a straight line or a curve and makes anyone look like a pro driver.

Nissan takes its potent Z sports coupe and gives it the NISMO performance treatment. The 2024 Z NISMO has seen its 3.0L twin-turbo engine tuned to make 420 hp and gets upgrades to its brakes, suspension, aerodynamics, transmission, plus track-friendly tires. Inside, you’ll find Recaro seats with leather and Alcantara with a red center.

The Nissan Armada has been the Japanese automaker’s largest SUV for 20 years. We hadn’t spent time in one in a while and recently had the opportunity to live with the 2023 Armada for a week. Does the upscale Platinum model have what it takes to keep up in today’s crowded 3-row SUV market?

Providing a glimpse at Nissan’s future, the Japanese automaker revealed a striking concept for a zero-emissions convertible. The electric two-seater is designed for dynamic and spirited driving and features a minimal cockpit with an ultrawide digital display. The video shows a rendering, but Nissan built a real-world model too.

The Pathfinder Rock Creek is a new edition of Nissan’s popular SUV designed with rugged styling and above-average off-road capabilities. We took some time to get to know this great-looking family vehicle on and off the pavement and enjoyed its smooth and comfortable ride and spacious and versatile interior.

Modern cars are made from thousands of parts, precisely engineered to fit together and carry us safely down the road. Commissioned by Nissan China in 2012, Dutch artist Paul Veroude took a car’s 3,421 individual parts and suspended them from the ceiling relative to the locations where they are normally assembled.

When it comes to full-size pickup trucks, the Nissan Titan might not be the first name to come to mind. The 2022 Titan is a beefy and bold looking truck – especially in its rugged PRO-4X trim. It has a powerful engine, a comfortable cabin, and many upgrades for off-roading and overlanding. Read on for our hands-on review.

The Nissan Z is back and it’s simply fantastic. We spent a week living with the 2023 Z, and it’s everything we hoped for. The new Z deftly balances nostalgia and modernity with its thoughtful design, performance, and technology. A powerful drivetrain and spirited handling make this the best Z car in years.
