Nissan and Habitat for Humanity

Through actively promoting volunteerism and funding home building projects led by Habitat for Humanity, Nissan is committed to making housing affordable in the communities where our employees and customers live.

Nissan’s partnership with Habitat for Humanity began five years ago, following the devastation of the 2005 hurricane season. It started with an annual donation of $1 million dollars, but by 2011 that number had been surpassed with an additional $1.5 million to support sustainability, building efforts, training and awareness.

Our disaster-relief efforts resulted in the donation of 50 Nissan Titan trucks, with a value totaling more than $1 million, to support rebuilding efforts in the Gulf Coast region.

Nissan’s in-kind donations will be used to construct homes in Liberty City, one of Miami’s most blighted urban areas, under the non-profit’s Liberty City Shine campaign. Miami Habitat is currently working with partners like Nissan to build and refurbish more than 250 homes over three years in this once-thriving neighborhood.

To date, Nissan has provided more than $7.5 million in grant money and donations, and more than 5,000 Nissan team members have volunteered with Habitat for Humanity across the United States.

Seamless shifting, constant power: That’s what you get with Nissan’s XTRONIC Continuously Variable Transmission. It doesn’t gear hunt. It doesn’t give you shift shock. Nissan’s CVT doesn’t even have traditional fixed gear ratios. Instead, it uses an ingenious steel belt/pulley system to move up and down the gear ratio in continuously smooth motion. There is no “shifting” in the conventional sense of the word.

We are happy to announce the launch of TrucksOfReno.com, the official pickups and commercial vehicles site of Nissan of Reno. The goal of TrucksOfReno.com is to provide you with a detailed vehicle breakdown of all the commercial vehicles in our lineup as well as showcase the vehicles we currently have in stock. We hope this new addition will help you to make a better decision with your next commercial vehicle purchase.

Here’s the scenario: it’s a sweltering hot July afternoon and you know you’ll be getting in the car in 15 minutes. Use your smartphone or computer to remotely turn on the air conditioning and voila, you’ll be entering a nice cool car. The system also works to remotely turn on the heater on those chilly winter mornings.

A second benefit of this feature is that it saves valuable battery power. By remotely starting the climate systems, you can cool or heat your Nissan LEAF™ while it is still plugged in, meaning you don’t need to use the extra battery power when travelling.

CARWINGS® is an innovative new system that lets Nissan LEAF™ owners communicate remotely with their car. Drivers can check the charging status of the battery, get reminders, set timers, start charging, turn on the air conditioning, find local charging stations and much more. And the best part is you don’t have to be in (or even near) the vehicle to do it – it all works through your web-based mobile phone or computer. CARWINGS® is a complimentary service for Nissan LEAF™ owners for three years.

Press the accelerator down in the all new 2012 Nissan GT-R and you’ll feel the raw power of the 530-HP Twin-Turbo V6. Yet this car is very tame and controllable. The GT-R has Supercar performance with amazing flexibility at the touch of a switch with its fully adjustable Transmission, Suspension, and AWD systems. GT-R’s Multi-Function Display system provides quick readability with the flexibility of seven customizable displays. They give you quick driving information including acceleration, braking, steering, gear position, G-forces and lap times. http://www.nissanusa.com/gt-r/?next=header.vlp.postcard.picture.thumbnail.#/key-features/virtualdrive/

Nissan is proud to be selected as New York’s Taxi of tomorrow. With a 10 year contract beginning in late 2013, Nissan’s fleet of spacious, comfortable, state-of-the-art taxis will serve the city that never sleeps with innovation that never rests.

The new Nissan LEAF is 100% Electric. No Gas and no Tailpipe means no emissions. It’s the first all-electric vehicle to receive a 5- Star safety rating from the NCAP. It was also named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. And it doesn’t skip out on the Luxury options either.  The LEAF can come equipped with Navigation, a Bluetooth Hands-Free phone system, Keyless Entry, Homelink, front and rear Heated Seats, a Heated steering wheel and a Regenerating 4-wheel ABS Anti-lock Braking System. It also comes with XM Satellite radio and an Ipod port to plug-in your favorite portable music device.

The LEAF also has 6 Airbags for the ultimate in safety. It has Dual-Stage front airbags with seatbelt classification sensors, seat-mounted side-impact airbags, and roof-mounted curtain side-impact airbags for front and rear occupant head protection.

The 100% all electric, zero-emission Nissan LEAF was named 2011 World Car of the Year. Edging out the BMW 5-Series and the Audi A8 for the top spot. This title is the latest in a string of awards for the world’s first affordable mass-market, all-electric vehicle. It was also named one of KBB’s top 10 Green Cars of the Year.

When you need your vehicle to be more than just a cargo van, Nissan introduces the all-new NV. With its available 317 Horsepower V8, no job is too large. With its High-Roof option, you’ll have 323 cu. ft. of cargo space at your disposal. They have six colors to choose from if you want more than just the regular old white. They also have Commercial Incentive Programs that can offer a Cargo Management Storage System, a Utility Package with ladder racks, or custom exterior company graphics.
