Nissan Canada seemed to be abandoning the small-car segment with the elimination of the Versa Note and Micra after the 2019 and 2020 model years, respectively. As it turns out, the company will replace both with the next-generation Versa sedan, which is already on sale in the U.S. Back in …

Nissan has one of the most SUV-heavy lineups in the entire industry. With the Kicks , Qashqai , Rogue , Murano , Pathfinder and Armada , the company knows exactly what the name of the game is in 2020. We recently put the sub-compact Qashqai to the test and came …

A new generation of Nissan’s Z sports coupe is coming and chances are we’ll see it sometime in the next 12 months, which is great because the current 370Z dates back to 2009 and no longer catches the attention of performance enthusiasts. For a while, there were rumours that Nissan …

After extending the shutdown of their North American manufacturing facilities, Japan’s three biggest automakers are now forced to furlough thousands of workers.
