Bay Ridge Nissan

If you're a parent of a young child in the greater Brooklyn area, or just a parent in general, what are your top three concerns when shopping for a new car? If we could hear you we're sure you'd be saying, safety, safety and safety!

This is perfectly understandable, a child's safety in a vehicle is extremely important, and sometimes proper installation of safety seats can be a literal life-saver. But…

When the first mainstream EV vehicle, the Nissan LEAF first hit the scene, many worried that its resale value might not be even comparable to that of gas-powered cars. This spelled potentially bad news for people in the greater Brooklyn area and beyond who had been open-minded enough to jump into the world of electric technology.

Luckily for these green pioneers, the Nissan LEAF not only holds its value, but it maintains almost the entire?

Word on the street is that a certain new Nissan model has a big birthday coming up. Do you know which auto that would be? Alright, Bay Ridge Nissan will tell you. The venerable Nissan Pathfinder is turning 27 in 2013.

Imagine for a moment what it would be like to be the fastest person on earth. You'd think holding such a title would inevitably produce feelings of superiority and arrogance. However, Nissan recently teamed up with the actual fastest man in the world and found him to be not only pleasant and humble, but a dedicated Nissan fan as well.

In life and in the automotive realm, sometimes it's the little things that count. Now, don't worry. Bay Ridge Nissan isn't trying to get all sentimental. We're simply making the case that when it comes to new Nissan vehicles, even the tiniest bits of technology can make a huge difference in a consumer's driving experience.

Creating innovative electric vehicles that appeal to a wide demographic is key to getting consumers to make the switch to greener mobility. Thankfully, Nissan has that covered with models like the Nissan LEAF. However, it also takes some effort on the part of government. In this area, it seems as though Norway provides a perfect example.

Electric vehicle charging stations can be hard to locate. No secret there. Because the eco-friendly automotive technology is so new, the proper infrastructure to support it is still in the works. But while some automakers try to cover up or ignore the problem, Nissan is dedicated to finding a solution.

Predicting sales growth for a yet-to-be-released vehicle can be risky. Especially when so many factors (i.e. fuel economy, gas prices, technology trends) can change the auto market landscape in a matter of moments. However, Bay Ridge Nissan has to say, we have solid faith that Cars.com's most recent vehicle forecast is going to prove true.

As the automotive landscape shifts, car makers continue to shift their vehicle offerings and respective brands along with it. Nissan is no exception. Over thirty years ago, the automaker decided to retire its Datsun line in order to unite its vehicles under one name. Since then, Nissan has become a household name across the globe and even found success bringing a luxury arm to life.

It's one thing to adopt a few earth-friendly practices. It's another thing completely to sustain an eco-safe style of operating. Bay Ridge Nissan is proud to say that Nissan has not only perfected the latter of the two but has even procured an award for it.
