The Nissan Sentra

Sentra refuses to be bound by the limits of compact thinking, despite it being our most affordable sedan. It looks powerful and athletic, light on its feet. Inside, the European-designed interior is sophisticated and serious, thanks to the unfailing attention to detail. And with a taut, Autobahn-ready suspension and a spirited 4-cylinder engine that borrows a few tricks from Maxima's award-winning V6, Sentra delivers on exceptional from the moment you turn the key.

The Nissan Altima

Here's the prescription. The totally new 2002 Nissan Altima. Specially formulated to eliminate sedan-induced boredom with an exhilarating 240-hp V6 engine or 175-hp 4-cylinder. An ad

The Nissan Maxima

I have a 1995 black Maxima GLE, I love that car, it rides great and is still in good condition. 

The Maxima concept: flagship luxury and award-winning V6 performance in one unique package. For 2002, we took this concept more seriously than ever. Starting with performance and a boost to 255 horsepower. Which ignited, of course, an equally powerful surge on the luxury side. Anything less and we couldn't have called it a Maxima. CARS LIKE IT......0!

Nissan SE-R

We understand. So much so we created the SE-R and the SE-R Spec V. Inspired by the streetwise sophistication of Nissan's legendary Skyline, with 165 hp and 175 hp respectively, sport-tuned suspensions and an asphalt-craving attitude inside and out. The Spec V version — available only with a 6-speed manual — is for the truly committed. In addition to the boost in horsepower, it has an even tighter suspension and a helical limited-slip differential to translate all that power into pavement-hugging motion. Let's just say, your pink slip is safe.

Nissan Xterra

And nothing you don't. All the way down to its heavy-duty truck frame, Xterra is 100% function — as it has been from day one. But before Xterra gets caught being the status quo it never ever was, we have a few updates. A new face (still honest) and an updated interior. And for all of you out there thirsting for a power boost, how about a 210-hp SuperCharged V6? Guess you can think of the 2002 Xterra as everything this SUV stands for — to the nth degree.

Nissan Pathfinder

Not knowing what lies ahead can be exciting. Knowing, on the other hand, that you can handle practically anything that comes along is downright exhilarating. After all, 240 horses (Automatic transmission; 250 hp with manual) pounding under the hood is enough to make anyone feel invincible. The fact that you can also choose All-Mode 4WD® and a level of equipment that includes a navigation system and Bose® audio system is equally empowering. And full of possibilities.

Nissan Frontier

Since we brought the first small pickup to America over 40 years ago, Nissan has been on the leading edge of compact trucks. Our King Cab was the first extended cab in the U.S. Two years ago, we upstaged everyone with America's first true 4-door compact truck: the Frontier Crew Cab. Last year, we put a modern, streetwise spin on old-school truckdom and offered the only factory-installed supercharger available on a compact pickup. So how do we top this for 2002? By introducing the Frontier Crew Cab Long Bed, with the longest bed of any 4-door compact truck. Looks like Nissan trucks are out in front again.

Nissan Quest

Accelerate past homework, clients, and the age-old dilemma of what to have for dinner. Quest's sporty 3.3-liter V6 engine can rearrange your priorities in record time. And with a 5-star safety rating (see below) and a socially engineered interior, Quest is a great excuse to gather up your family and head out for some unscheduled fun. Dinner can wait.

Nissan 350Z

Only a few laps to go now. On January 8, 2002 Nissan revealed the 2003 350ZTM sports car at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Most will have to wait until August 2002 to vie for the Z®, but you can build yours now - and ensure that it's among the first on your block.
