You're about to depart on your daily commute, with a million things on your to-do list once you get to work. If only you could work in your car. While we aren't there yet, the accelerated pace at which automakers and tech companies are introducing vehicle prototypes and automated drive features has left some stakeholders behind. On one hand there's excitement. On the other hand there's concern. Nissan addressed both this month when it hosted a forum that explored the future of autonomous vehicles. The event, held in Washington, D.C., gave lawmakers, regulators and other U.S. government officials a close and reassuring look at how Nissan is in the driver's seat when it comes to automated drive technologies. more Andy Christensen, senior manager, Nissan Technical Center North America in Michigan, explained how Nissan's perspective is different from other approaches that seem focused only on removing the driver from the driving experience. Nissan's philosophy is not to simply replace the driver in an automated vehicle. Instead, Nissan wants to enhance the driver's experience by introducing technologies that make cars more intelligent and more exciting partners. "Someday, when drivers want, the technology will be available to do the driving task for them," said Christensen. "But at Nissan, we see the driver remaining engaged and integral well into the future." It's really an evolution. Traditionally, how to drive the car "was always left up to the human driver."

Nissan today announced that the 2017 Altima has been named the top scoring mid-size car in the Strategic Vision Total Quality Impact (TQI) Awards. The 2017 Altima had a total evaluation score of 606 out of a possible 1,000 – more than 60 points above the segment average. Strategic Vision's 23rd annual Total Quality Impact (TQI) report is based on results from the New Vehicle Experience Study® (NVES) surveying over 42,000 Jul.-Dec. new vehicle buyers after the first 90 days of ownership. The TQI rating system allows owners to fully reflect their experiences with their vehicles, including tangible aspects such as acceleration and visibility, intangible aspects such as vehicle image, emotional aspects and involvement, as well as a comprehensive survey of the number and severity of the vehicle problems reported. more According to the study results, Altima stood out in categories such as seat comfort, interior design, thoughtful engineering and interior versatility. Quoting an Altima owner from the study: "I have fallen in love with how beautiful this car looks. Everything on the exterior is really a plus because the journey begins on the inside and with how much you will enjoy the experience of driving this vehicle." The study editors added: "Most importantly, ( Altima) delivers what its buyers hope for when they purchase. This kind of emotional delivery leads to greater loyalty later down the road." Altima is Nissan's second best-selling model, following the Nissan Rogue, selling nearly 150,000 units in the first six months of 2017. It was redesigned for the 2016 model year and has added a new Altima SR Midnight Edition for 2017. The Midnight Edition features black 18-inch Midnight Edition aluminum-alloy wheels and low-profile 235/45R18 all-season tires, black mirror caps, black rear spoiler, LED headlights, Remote Engine Start1 and available Midnight Edition floor mats. Beginning in June 2017, Altima 2.5 SV, 2.5 SL and 3.5 SL grades added Forward Emergency Braking (FEB)2 and Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW)3 as standard equipment. "The 2017 Altima anchors Nissan's sedan lineup, offering the style, performance, technology – and award-winning quality – that was recognized by owners participating in the Strategic Vision TQI study," said Scott Shirley, vice president, Nissan Chief Marketing Manager & Marketing Operations. "We are particularly pleased by the high rankings Altima received from Gen Y buyers, helping push it to the top of the mid-size car segment." The 2017 Altima is available in a choice of five models – 2.5 S, 2.5 SR, 2.5 SV, 2.5 SL and 3.5 SL. The four 2.5-liter models feature a 179-horsepower 2.5-liter DOHC inline 4-cylinder engine, while 3.5-liter Altima SL offers a 270-horsepower 3.5-liter DOHC V6. Both engines are matched with a standard smooth and efficient Xtronic transmission with enhanced third-generation D-Step Shift logic. Fuel economy4 for 2.5-liter models is rated at an estimated 27 mpg city, 39 mpg highway and 31 mpg combined (26 city/37 mpg highway/30 mpg combined for 2.5 SR). The Altima 3.5-liter V6-equipped SL model offers estimated fuel economy of 22 mpg city, 32 mpg highway and 26 mpg combined. Available safety/convenience features, in addition to Forward Emergency Braking (FEB)1 and Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW)2, include radar-based Blind Sport Warning (BSW)5, Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)6 and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)7.

Nissan announced today that the widely anticipated new Nissan LEAF will come with e-Pedal, a revolutionary technology that transforms the way we drive. With the flip of a switch, the technology turns your accelerator into an e-Pedal, allowing drivers to accelerate, decelerate and stop using just the e-Pedal*. e-Pedal technology is the world’s first one-pedal operation that allows drivers to bring the car to a complete stop even on hills, stay in position, and resume driving instantly. more Drivers can cover 90% of their driving needs with the e-Pedal, making the process of driving more exciting. In heavy traffic and during city commutes, drivers will greatly reduce the need to shift from one pedal to the other, making your drive simpler and more engaging. The e-Pedal technology represents another key milestone in Nissan’s ongoing commitment to bring accessible, advanced driver assistance technologies to the mainstream. Set to make driving safer and more enjoyable, the development of these technologies is part of Nissan Intelligent Mobility, the company’s blueprint for transforming how cars are driven, powered and integrated into society. By launching the Nissan LEAF, the world’s first mass-market electric vehicle, Nissan established itself as pioneer in the EV movement. Today the Nissan LEAF is the world’s best-selling electric vehicle, with more than 277,000 sold worldwide.
