About Nissan
For decades Nissan sold its export cars as Datsun. In the US the Nissan name arrived on new models such as the Sentra and Stanza in 1982, and Datsun was phased out in 1986. Nissan launched its Infiniti luxury brand in 1989.
Same car, different badge
- Quest (first generation) was built in a joint venture with Ford alongside the Mercury Villager.
- Frontier is the Suzuki Equator. Until its third generation the Pathfinder used the same pickup platform, and outside North America it was sold as the Terrano.
- Maxima is also the Infiniti I30 and I35, and the first Infiniti QX56 is based on the Armada.
- 370Z shares the FM platform with the Infiniti G35 and G37.
