It’s always interesting to learn more about your favorite auto brands. For instance, did you know that Nissan actually was the Japanese manufacturer of the vehicle most like the American Ford Model T?

In 1934, engineering conglomerate Nihon Sangyo Co., Ltd acquired Datsun. This company would later become Nissan. They began to manufacture Japan’s first mass-produced car, the Type 15.

The Type 15 was available in a variety of body styles, including a mini-pickup, delivery van, coupe, and a convertible. The vehicle was powered by a 747-cc 4-cylinder engine, which produced 15 horsepower through a 3-speed transmission.

Nissan also played a part in British auto production. In 1952, they entered an agreement to build and sell cars for Austin, a large company in England. At first, these vehicles were assembled as kits, within three years they began to be put together locally.

This partnership permitted Nissan to make use of Austin’s patents, which launched the Japanese manufacturer on a forward trajectory to its modern status.

2018 nissan 370z for sale seattle kirkland washingtonIf you’re reading this, you probably love Nissan cars. From the sporty 2018 370Z Coupe Touring to the powerful 2018 Titan XD Pro-4X, the automaker is known for its lasting quality and excellent design.

There are probably a lot of things about Nissan that you don’t know yet, though. For instance, you might not be aware that the automaker once got involved in space exploration. Starting in 1970, they built the rocket engines for Japan’s missions, doing so all the way up until 2000. One of these, used for the Lambda 4S-5, even outlived the program, burning up in the atmosphere in 2003.

I don’t know about you, but if someone can manufacture a great rocket engine, I’m going to tend to trust them to design fantastic, high-quality parts of automobiles. Thirty-three years of working on Japanese space exploration is impressive stuff!

Some Nissan autos, like the 370Z Coupe Touring, have impressive engines, too. It actually offers 350 horsepower! That won’t get you into space, but for a smaller vehicle, that’s exceptionally strong.
