Nissan stock fell 40% over the past year as well.What happened to Nissan?
nissan needs to get back in motorsports.
too many manufacturers, they don't have a niche anymore
>>28090192>make dog shit cars with dog shit transmissions>sufferAm I supposed to be upset?
Looks like selling out to Renault wasn't a good idea after all.
>>28090222But it worked so well for AMC!!!
>>28090192Widespread CVT adoption to a lineup that includes 300 HP 3.5 L engines rather than 70hp I3s has had its consequences on its reliability as a brand.The Infiniti cars are very well built, and the trucks are great but they never got the Toyota reputation they deserve. There’s plenty of manual frontiers that made it to a million miles but we don’t soi face over them like we do that one tundra from 2008 or whatever. Nissan needs re adopt the planetary automatic, Infiniti and RWD Nissan products have no wide reported transmission issues like the FWD parts bin Nissan cars.
>>28090192>Nissan is dyingWhat are black people going to drive now?
>>28090192I'm partially responsible for this.
>>28090192Quality has been on the decline and their shit is outdated. Truthfully, they have some actually appealing options in their lineup right now. The nu pathfinder is a 9 speed instead of a CVT and the 3rd gen frontiers are garnering a niche but it's not enough. The grave they dug for themselves is far too deep.
Failure to innovate combined with a stranglehold of democrat regulation.
>>28090192Where will altima buyers migrate to?
>>28090285Kia K5 (replacement of the Kia Optima which sounds similar to Altima)
Its a global currency collapse lads, We're at the end of this system, get out while you still can.
that’s what they get for killing the GTR
>>28090240Dodge, you idiot.
>>28090192Miss me yet?
>>28090192Every single automaker is taking massive hits because we've been in a depression for 4 years that they've been lying to us about the whole time
>>28090408Well they're going to show their fangs on January 20th and announce that suddenly we're in a recession.
>cvt dogshit>renault rebadge >dull cars that havent been updated in 20 years>no r36>nismo z is a pig no update in 23 years apart from a turbo and infantiletaainment
>no S16
>>28090192do they have a single popular crossover or suv? yeah, I thought so
>>28090383Interesting how the company started running a lot worse after they kicked him out. It's as if he actually knew what he was doing, and they're just a bunch of retarded nip cunts. Makes you think, don't it.
>>28090217Huh?
>>28090192the fucking french is what happened
>>28090599>>28090375he is the reason nissan is doing poorly, and the company was hoing to shit after his cost cutting ran into the inevitability of having nowhere else to cost cut. Ghosen basically did what stellantis is managing to do in record time, but over. a10 year period
>>28090635Nissan was insolvent back in the '90s, before he took over. Under him, the company had some decent sales successes throughout the years. While /o/ might hate them, both the Qashqai and the Juke were quite popular at launch. And he was supportive of Nissan selling sporty cars again (he greenlit both the 350 and the GTR).
>>28090192>What happened to Nissan?Couldn't handle the fact that it's thanks to the french that they are still alive.Had to tank both their dead company AND renault.I thought the japanese were all about honour...
>>28090602cute
I worked at a Nissan dealer in a major metro area. They managed to go out of business. At one point they were hemorrhaging $200,000+ a month due to lack of sales. It was weird seeing like 3 new general managers inside a year.
Renault faggots should do a Mitsubishi Eclipse Revival a la Nissan 350Z and not that motherfucking Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, which still is an humiliation ritual fuck those french kikesKill the fucking NP300/Frontier/Navarra as it is, next generation make it a L200 instead of making the L200 more Nissan like.Make a fucking Mirage RWD and sell it as and affordable MX5 killer.Put Ralliart do its magic with a Mirage RWD/Eclipse (using Nissan Z platform) instead of just focusing L200 Ralliart.I work at Mitsu, does faggots are being humiliated by Nissan HARD. I quit because I just couldnt' do SHIT.
lmao
I bought a Nissan Z nismo. Nice car but very overpriced compared to the Supra. I still enjoy it.
>>28090935>I thought the japanese were all about honour...It's about pride, not honour. They thought it was shameful that a Japanese giant like Nissan would be under the thumb of the French. Hence why he got accused of a bunch of shit the jap executives were also doing.All this and the fact they were still third to Toyota and Honda who were both fully japanese ran, which it's self is a pride killer.
>>28090314two more weeks
Because they are shitWhat Nissan product would you ever recommend someone buy?My dad was trying to get me to buy a Nissan SUV. So I did some researchhttps://youtu.be/HvDmZPWmRbQ?si=ZmX5t9ubYcl3Z2e7Literally everything is wrong with this car. The transmission is bad the engine is bad the steering is bad the fit and finish is bad the comfort is bad.They honestly make some of the ugliest worst cars ever made. Mitsubishi went from being a great car manufacturer to making appliance cars. Nissan hasn't even managed that in just makes absolute shit.
>>28090305Kia actually makes reasonably good cars. I really wish they had some of the smaller cars available like the kia ray
>>28095516to be fair the kicks/qumquat is made in korea by samsung-renault, not nissan
>>28095520What modern Nissan would you recommend?
>>28095516>What Nissan product would you ever recommend someone buy?FrontierPathfinderArmadaThese have reliable engines and transmissions, and everything else about theme is pretty good or on-par with any other modern vehicle in the same price range.
>>28090192Nothing they make is really worth buying. Historically their brand image was making simple sturdy tractors that they then dress up with nice interiors, but they haven't been like that for 20 years. Now they're cut rate Toyota. Which, if they're going to do that, why not buy the Toyota?>>28090210>utter failure of a car that cost them billionsYeah, that's what they need.
>>28090192>whoring out leases to credit criminals isn't a viable long term business strategyIMAGINE MY SHOCK
it's joever

>Nissan over 90% down>BMW over 80% down>VW over 60% downthe fuck is happening

>>28097922>>28097920Make trash for yearsPeople finally realize Lose moneyNot hard to figure out mate
>>28098001>People finally realize>implying the average consumer is sapient It's more like China has caught up, having gathered enough know how from all those brands who sold out to them to make "good enough" cars themselves now. Chinese are buying domestic cars now and all those companies who told Euro and American markets to fuck off will now have to pay for their retardation.
>>28097945The sooner he dies the better the world will be.
>>28098172He's just a head on a hydra.
My experience owning a Nissan>own an 07 Murano>paid for the transmission rebuild @ 100,000 miles before anything went wrong, cost approx $5k>otherwise drove the vehicle with no significant mechanical or suspension issues for another 140,000 miles>only work i had to do was replace the coils and the radiator after a tree branch cracked it >got into two front end collisions, one of which ripped the bumper clean off>also did a relatively large amount of driving over unpaved terrain and made several very long trips where i was averaging 100+mph for hours at a time>also neglected oil changes by almost 50% of recommended mileage a couple times when money was tight>also drove it for a long time with zero coolant because of a persistent leak and never saw any ill effects>also forgot to re-attach some vacuum hoses after removing the plenum, ran it this way for almost 10k miles without any ill effect besides rough idle and occasionally choking (turning the motor on/off always fixed this)Eventually the CVT did die but overall it was a rock solid vehicle that withstood abusive conditions well in excess of manufacturer testing, most of which was in the last 200,000 miles of it's operating life. I don't even think the deferred maintenance contributed significantly to the CVT shitting out, everyone I talked to said it was an inevitability and I was extremely lucky to have gotten as much out of mine as I did.If I had taken better care of it or been better at wrenching I see no reason it wouldn't have cracked 300k. The interior even held up pretty well in spite of spending a large part of it's life in an extremely hot climate and spending zero days ever stored in a garage
>>28090192OWARI DA
>>28090240>What are black people going to drive now?Kia. They're actually combat tested because of them.
>>28095519They don't pass safety regs and are extremely rollover prone. They're super practical though.
>>28098191Hercules killed one, we can too.
How do we save Nissan
>>28098831Reparations checks turn directly into Altimas and "ryiums".
>>28098025Best part guess who taught em to build those cars
I could have bought a Nissan, I could have saved her.. job. Now there is a factory hottie looking into entering pornography.
>>28095516>QashqaiIs that the same Qashqai they sell in Europe? It's been a top 10 hit for years, at least in the inspection rejection rate charts.
>>28095591Armadas are shitRattly interior plastic (very noticeable on the highway)Shitty electrical gremlinsAnd you have to remove the top of the fucking engine to replace the starter Fuck Nissan.
>>28097920Remember a few years ago when the government changed the definition of recession, and we told you things were bad? >85% of consumption in the USA is driven by government spending btw (massive budgets, 25 million employees, bail-outs for banks, etc)
>>28090192Firing Carlos Ghosn for not being Japanese enough was probably not the right move
>>28097920The world is healing and Scotty was right Toyota/Honda number 1!!!
>>28099151Yeah, the chinks were quite clever in how they developed their auto industry. For those not familiar with this, first they slapped large tariffs on imported cars, and then when foreign companies wanted to assemble them in China to bypass the tariffs they required most of them to "partner" with a chinese company.
>>28100063>For those not familiar with this, first they slapped large tariffs on imported cars, and then when foreign companies wanted to assemble them in China to bypass the tariffs they required most of them to "partner" with a chinese company.This is literally what happens in the USA
kek
>>28097945This dude is cartoonishly evil
>>28095519i have a kia and literally zero complaints. theyve really improved in recent years.
>>28098612you don't even leave your room
>>28100087you must be literally retarded.
>>28098831Bring back diesel Qashqais and Jukes for free Euro money. Work out the battery tech they had with the 30/40kWh Leaf and work it into an affordable Newer Leaf to compete. Sink the Ariya dead.Nuclear strike on Renault HQ promptly afterwards
>>28090217i don't know if they even had a niche of their own exactly, in my mind they were like toyota, a big company making reliable transport and in japan both were going head to head with cutting edge technology, but that was only until 2000 and renault of course
>>28101593In parts of Yurop they're more like mom's shopping cart company, except real shopping carts probably last longer than whatever Renault shit they're building their Euro cuckovers on.I don't think they even sell anything except CUVs here any more. Maybe the Leaf? Though it's so outdated now that it barely matters unless you want an EV project car for some reason.
>>28101346You don't even have one.
I wonder who's responsible for this?
>>28102886the Japs. shouldn't have gotten ride of Ghosen.
>>28090219>>28090235This >make cars less serviceable >car breaks under warranty>fuck it cost a lot of money to fix all this shit>why are profits dropping?
Upper management will gut the company and give them all million dollar bonuses then fuck off to another company to do the same thing.>but why will other companies hire failures Because they aren't failure they are millionaires and are hired to make upper management at other companies to do the same thing. Failures get fired by upper management.
>>28091051based we all monke anywaysfix her nappy hairdo bam chocolate qween
korean cars next
Good riddance.
Comparing it to the Honda CR-V EX model the Nissan is slightly cheaper with 10 more horsepower and no heated seats. Would rather have the Honda that includes heated seats and has better quality.
>>28095519Imagine an F-150 smashing into that.
>>28096846They went bankrupt in 1999 following the above business model. The market was just too small for them Toyota and Honda to compete in the same segment plus they made a few blunders - which I think was a shame. We like to blame ghosn a lot for turning Nissan into cut rate Toyota but without that Nissan wouldn't exist anymore
>>28090192Nissan's biggest problems are two things;>Never updating their vehiclesTheir cars are horribly outdated and they'll keep the same car design in production for 10-12 years; as a more blantant example the new Z is literally just a 350z with a bodykit and different engine and it shows.>Letting their brand reputation turn into "poor people with bad credit buy Nissan"The meme about altima's and maxima's being driven by retards and owned by people with 25% APR payments is a meme for a reason, nobody wants to be seen driving anything with a Nissan badge except the GTR (which given how stupid expensive it is now, most would rather buy a Porsche or other legitimate supercar for that much)
>>28107580The Maxima is actually a great car, you're thinking of Altimas and Sentras. Iirc the Maxima has a separate built CVT
>>28090222theyve split off some years ago mostly due to Ghosn case
>>28097920profits downif your profits go from 5% of sales to 0,5% thsts a -90% drop in profitability but in reality equivalent to selling cars at 1000 dollars cheaper to shift units
>>28100087Nothing is manufactured in the US anymore. The few manufacturing jobs that are left are dwindling and being sent to Mexico, China, Vietnam and Indonesia.
Thank you, Nissan, for creating the most legendary car Mexico has received, just behind the VW Beetle. You won't be missed, though.
Nobody buys Japanese cars anymore.
>>28090192>profits plunge 93%holy fuck how are they still even open at this point?who would've thought financing Maximas to people with negative credit scores is a bad business model?
>>28098428Muranos are pretty decent. My parents had an 08 and never had any trouble with it.
>Bidenomics>Nog Bux only go to immigrants>Immigrants buy vansIt's simple. really. Niggies don't have bux or buy dodge now.
>>28090192sadly they make shit cars that nobody would be caught dead driving. They make the Altima for niggers with bad credit. Thats about it as far as I know. Maxima used to be a nice little car....they ruined that one too smfh.
>>28090192Auto manufacturers have been making shit quality cars for years, I hope they all collapse. On top of it all they sabotaged themselves with muh green shit and wasted investments on electric
they have to stay running until I can get an r35
>>28090192Bye Bye. The curse of outing Ghosn is real. Niggan deserves a terrible outcome. A Chinese brand should buy Niggan. Its the only good solution.
>>28090383The weebcels and nips are wrong, period. They owe him a BIG APOLOGY.
>>28090328Nah. Ghosn manifested the GTR. Without him, the GTR won't exist at all. Since retarded nips expelled Ghosn, the GTR will never get any updates—only a skyrocketing price. The weebcels are totally fine with this. lmao
>>28109016
>>28090192Nissan is already cooked. Infiniti will get axed so soon.
>>28097945>>28098172It's okay, he's 86 and his body is full of accumulated chemicals from living through the wars, being exposed to lead paint, DDTs, pesticides, fibers, animal hormones, microplastics etc, he won't live for more than 2 or 3 more years tops. And he definitely won't be in a position of power on the world economic scale by then, he'll be shitting in a bag talking to the roof
>>28101346You're a hydra of hands so you can try and troll people who actually have lives on one screen while you masturbate and adjust the 19 different monitors of children at once with the rest of your hands and hold your basement door closed while your mum tries to open it to tell you there are some nice men at the door to talk to you
>>28090192LMAO!
>>28090192As sad as it is, they have really dropped the ball on reliability on everything that isn't a truck or a sports/tuner car. Their CVTs have been so dogshit for years to the point that regular consumers don't trust Nissan anymore. They have done this to themselves and I fear that it may be too late for them to recover from the latest blows.
>>28090285Unequivocally Kia/Hyundai from what I've witnessed on the road. Also Cheby Cruze.
>>28090192Nissan needs to make more EVs.
THESE NIGGAS GETTIN' COOKED!
>>28090602
>entire jap car industry collapsinggood
>>28119397Chinese hands typed this post.
>>28090383>>28090599>>28090635>>28090718Gosn was very well known in the auto-industry as a complete dickhead nobody ever wants to be friends with, cannot trust in, and you wouldn't vouch for him even for a speeding ticket because he's such an asshole. But almost unanimously the auto industry heavy hitters agreed he knew what he was doing. He turned Nissan around in a very big way and because of standard Japanese autism became less useful as an overpaid executive. That was his downfall: he crossed a few too many lines in Japan and because he had no friends/allies for his decisions is now in his billion dollar house and yacht in Jordan. I assume he'll live the rest of his life there because of international warrants.
>>28099190>And you have to remove the top of the fucking engine to replace the starterSo that once-ever job takes a few extra hours that statistically 1% of vehicle owners will ever do? I'm definitely not buying a 2025 Armada because of that!
>>28107815>Nothing is manufactured in the US anymore.Supposedly the US is #2 in manufacturing in the world. That doesn't count the NAFTA shit thats made in mexico/canada. The problem is the US manufacturers only make shit that Americans want. Ask people in other countries, they're not buying American vehicles, they're not specifically buying American clothing, they're not buying American electronics. Its a weird doomloop of Americans making shit primarily for Americans and since the laws of thermodynamics still work, its not some financial boom for the US. Americans will seek out Japanese electronics, Seek out german/japanese vehicles, seek out German tools, specifically buy swedish furniture, etc. I can't think of a single thing other nations specifically seek from the US other than pickup trucks, """financial products""", entertainment, military equipment, and rockets.
>>28099190I've done one. Removing the intake manifold is not hard at all and I'd prefer that to one under the car if I were stranded by a bad starter and had to do it in a parking lot. For example the benistar ones are far worse (have to remove the driver's side engine mount on longitudinal ones, or the front bank catalytic converter on transverse ones) but nobody ever whines about those like VK56/1UZ/2UZ/3UZ/Northstar engines that put them in the V.
>>28110741Is this real?
>>28090222Why does Renault always seem to be the common factor in car companies going under
>>28119562the downpipes on the benistar are also a real bitch to get off because the aluminum hardline for the heater core intake and return are in the way on BOTH FUCKING SIDES OF THE ENGINE. ratcheting box wrenches with a swivel or at least an angle are a must. i have to get at them from underneath because my hands wont fit in the top.
>>28090222Renault and Ghost is what saved Nissan back then.Shit only started to go down once the japanese decided to sperg out and suppuku themselves (and renault).
