The new 2013 Nissan Altima sedan has just officially debuted at the 2012 New York Auto Show, and it looks aesthetically pleasing with a sleek and modern design, although some said that it looks too much of the new Nissan Maxima. Perhaps it is so, buyers wouldn’t mind getting a Maxima at an Altima’s price.

In building the Nissan GT-R, Nissan tested it against the Porsche 911 at the Nürburgring track in Germany. Although flattered, Porsche has taken a notice of these test runs as well, and the rivalry started to ignite. 

Big improvements are coming for the 2013 Nissan Leaf electric car. To stay competitive with the likes of Toyota Prius, Ford Focus Electric and Chevy Volt, Nissan is planning to make some serious improvements to the Nissan Leaf later this year, which includes a more efficient heater for cold-weather driving, new interior color choice and leather seats.

The Nissan GT-R and the BMW M5 are putting head-to-head each other for comparison who is the top dog, and from the specs, we can tell easily who is the winner here. At any case, we really need to see for ourselves instead of just looking at the performance numbers from the two cars.

Nissan will debut its new 2013 Nissan 370Z at the Chicago Auto Show tomorrow. While the new 2013 Nissan 370Z isn’t exactly evolution or revolution in changes, it does get a few subtle changes to keep the “Z” enthusiasts happy.
