The
all-new 2009 Nissan 370Z, the first full redesign of the iconic Nissan Z since
its reintroduction as a 2003 model, solidifies the strengths of its predecessor
with an unmatched balance of performance, style and value. Nearly every
piece and component of the 370Z has been rethought or redesigned (compared to
the previous 350Z) - a shorter wheelbase, greater use of lightweight body
materials, larger engine with 26 more horsepower, a new 7-speed automatic
transmission, an available world's first synchronized downshift rev matching
6-speed manual transmission, a new high quality interior design and new
available technology features.
The
370Z's new aerodynamic body is more compact and offers a more aggressive
stance. Attention to details such as the new "boomerang" headlights and
taillights increases its dynamic presence, elevating the overall styling to
much higher quality and emotional levels. The dramatic new interior
utilizes a driver-centric three-layer design which groups items by how a driver
sees information, operates the controls and is held in place - so drivers feel
completely connected and engaged whenever and wherever they drive.
Performance
has been enhanced with a more rigid body structure, better power-to-weight
ratio and a new 332-horsepower 3.7-liter DOHC V6 engine with Variable Valve
Event and Lift Control (VVEL). Crisp handling is provided by a refined
4-wheel independent suspension, while steering and braking systems, including
available Nissan Sport Brakes, have also been upgraded. Available
technology features include Nissan Navigation System with XM NavTraffic with
Real-Time Traffic Information (XM subscription required, sold separately) and
9.3GB Music Box Hard Drive and a Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System.
The
new Z is offered in two models: 370Z and 370Z Touring. In addition to the
370Z's long list of standard equipment, the 370Z Touring adds heated
leather-appointed power seats, HomeLink Universal Transceiver, Bluetooth
Hands-free Phone System, 8-speaker Bose audio system, XM
Satellite Radio (XM subscription, sold separately) cargo cover and aluminum
pedals to the long list of standard Z features and equipment. Also
available is a premium paint color, Chicane Yellow.
The boxy yet stylish Nissan
cube, known in the Japanese market for its unique combination of fashion and
functionality, will be available for the first time in the
The 2009 Nissan cube provides
the utility and dependability consumers expect in a small car wrapped in a
package that is anything but square. It's unique, non-traditional design
features an asymmetrical body, a stout "bulldog-like" stance, wide doors, a
large greenhouse with wraparound rear window, and a refrigerator-style rear
door.
Inside, the new cube's interior is a roomy social space, designed to be a destination rather than a way to get to get one. Capable of seating up to five passengers, the new cube offers a plethora of innovative storage solutions ideal for storing cell phones, MP3 players and other personal items. To accommodate its occupants, the new cube provides comfortable front seating with a three-position sliding, reclining theater-style rear seat.
The front-wheel-drive cube is
available with a standard 122-horsepower 1.8-liter DOHC 4-cylinder engine and a
choice of Nissan's advanced, smooth-shifting Xtronic CVT?
(Continuously Variable Transmission) or 6-speed manual transmission. Fuel
efficiency is expected to be over 30 mpg highway with the CVT transmission
(actual EPA estimates not available at this time). Cube is offered in
three well-equipped models: cube 1.8, cube 1.8 S and cube 1.8 SL. A long
list of safety features are standard on the cube, including six air bags. Accessories
will also be offered, allowing cube owners to personalize their vehicles to
reflect their own tastes and needs.
