Nissan LEAF Leads the Way to a New World Record

The 2016 Nissan Pathfinder has been named one of Kelley Blue Book’s “16 Best Family Cars of 2016” for the third year in a row. KBB extensively evaluates several vehicles for two weeks before announcing their decisions. They were especially impressed by the Pathfinder’s Around View® Monitor as well as their hassle-free EZ Flex Seating System™ with LATCH AND GLIDE™ system that makes child seat issues obsolete. "When we launched the totally redesigned Pathfinder in 2013 as a 3-row/7-passenger model, we knew it was an ideal vehicle for what we call everyday family adventures," said Dan Mohnke, vice president, Nissan Chief Marketing Manager & Marketing Operations.

The Carbon Disclosure Project has ranked Nissan in the top five percent of corporations that are participating in the international NPO’s climate change program. In addition, Nissan received a perfect score on the organization’s Climate Disclosure Leadership Index. All of this recognition means that Nissan was once again the highest ranked automotive company in Japan. The perfect score was given thanks to the continuing work that has been done to reduce CO2 emissions from new vehicles by 90 percent by 2050. Nissan was also named on the Climate “A” list thanks to its top-selling zero-emissions vehicle the LEAF, it’s implementation of LEAF to Home and its effort to reduce CO2 emissions within its manufacturing process.
