Itâ€™s the sharp pinch of a nerve. You wince, shift, try to realign your body - but the pain persists. Up your spine it travels, slapping every synapse; and, when it finally settles at the base of your neck, you groan. This is no way to spend a commute.

Nissan agrees. That's why itâ€™s bringing superior comfort to Seattle, fusing the 2019 Altima with zero gravity seating.

According to Top Speed, the new Altima should feature Nissanâ€™s signature zero gravity seats (official specs have yet to be confirmed, but spy photos have given critics considerable hope). These ergonomic options will counter spinal pain, utilizing 14 distinct pressure points to improve posture. Their angled cushions will align the nerves and back muscles alike, ensuring that all riders remain in optimal neutral positions; while their supple leather materials will encourage relaxation. Plush thigh bolsters will increase circulation, and customizable head-rests will cradle each neck.

This will redefine every commute - enabling both drivers and passengers to experience pain-free miles. The 2019 Altima will combat muscle cramps, aggravated nerves, and misaligned spines to provide pure comfort. With zero gravity comes relief.

Curious about the new Altima? Contact our team today for further information.

2019 Nissan Altima Promises Ample Power In Seattle

Searching for a mid-size upgrade? Nissan will soon unveil its 2019 Altima - promising two powerful engine options for the Seattle market. No longer will commutes be burdened by weak speeds and low torque. Instead this sedan will deliver class-leading performance, injecting highway-thrills into every day.

According to Top Speed, the 2019 Altima will offer two new engines - a 2.5L inline-four and a 3.5L V6. Each will provide segment-shattering power, with Nissan enhancing every rev:

2.5L Inline-Four
Estimated Performance Ratios: 200 HP and 198 lb.-ft of torque.

3.5L V6
Estimated Performance Ratios: 290 HP and 275 lb.-ft of torque.

Nissan seeks to enhance the mid-size market, fusing its Altima with a suite of engine upgrades. Both will boast a revised XTronic automatic transmission (which will promote smooth shifting, transitioning between gears without the friction of a clutch) and a FWD (which will ensure a lighter curb mass and lessen column strain). Direct-injection technology is also anticipated to maximize fuel distribution and allow for steadier torque.

No official specs have yet been confirmed for the 2019 Altima - but, should these rumors prove true, the platform will yield impressive capability in Seattle.

Disappointment follows the mid-size market - looming always in the distance, leaving its sticky fingerprints on sedans. It undermines each platform, with drivers underwhelmed by every mile.

The 2018 Maxima will change this.

According to JD Power, Nissanâ€™s signature sedan will prove impossible to ignore on the highway - banishing disappointment with every slap of its 18-inch wheels. The 2018 Maxima has been refreshed for spring, and it now offers a bold design. The chrome grille delivers a matte-finish, with its trapezoidal shape dominating the fascia. Wrap-around LED lights showcase the narrow fenders, while the floating roofline (achieved by revising the C-Pillar construction) creates a sporty effect. The profile is narrow but distinguished, measuring 193-inches long, 73-inches wide, and 57-inches high; and metallic accents emphasize the power-folding mirrors and sculpted door panels. Optional features include rocker moldings, kick plates, and a rear bumper diffuser.

To further delight drivers, Nissan has also fused the 2018 Maxima with a brand new color - Carnelian Red. This shade injects drama into every mile, perfectly complementing the boomerang-style headlamps and available rear spoiler.

No longer settle for ordinary. Instead embrace a sleek style this season - with the new Maxima redefining the Seattle market. To learn more about this Nissan sedan contact us today!

Nissan Reveals Further Details About IMx Concept To Seattle

Power often eludes the crossover market - with these big-bodied beasts tailored for comfort instead of performance, emphasizing open cabins and wide fenders. Speed proves an afterthought.

With the release of the IMx Concept, Nissan will change this.

As The Drive explains, the IMx Concept - which is tentatively scheduled for 2020 - will propel the crossover market to dizzying heights. Anchored by a dual-power system (with each axle mated to an electric motor), this platform should yield 429 HP and 515 lb.-ft of torque. Oversized all-season tires will promote superior traction; while sheet metal paneling will reduce performance strain, offering an aerodynamic design that will provide smoother accelerations. The meticulously constructed interior will also boast flexible plastics and laminated woods, further reducing the platformâ€™s overall curb weight.

When these elements combine, they will allow the IMx to dominate the crossover market - with its 0 to 60 rev expected to be less than seven seconds. This will ensure a first-place finish against Ford, Toyota, and Honda.

The IMx Concept will redefine SUVs in Seattleâ€¦ and we canâ€™t wait to see this platform roaring down the lane. To learn more about it (including potential scheduling dates and further specs) contact our dealership today.

Performance will soon receive an upgrade - with Nissan readying the world for its 400Z NISMO. This platform (which should make its North American debut in 2020) will redefine speed, bringing a twin-turbocharged engine to the highway.

Prepare, Seattle, for a new kind of coupe.

According to The Drive, the 400Z NISMO will revitalize the market. Anchored by 3.0L V6 engine, this platform should yield a staggering 475 HP and 415 lb.-ft of torque. Its lean body (177.9-inches long, 74.4-inches wide, and 48.8-inches high) will boast aggressively-sculpted fenders and a sharp roofline to promote aerodynamics; while twin-turbochargers will optimize every rev, utilizing direct-injection capability to propel the all-season tires forward. A RWD will offer stable handling, balancing the estimated 3,700-pounds of curb weight to maximum effect.

The 400Z - which will serve as the sport coupe successor of the much-beloved Z3 - will allow drivers to experience full-throttle excitement on the highway. Though no official speed ratios have been confirmed, critics anticipate a 0 to 60 run of less than five seconds (thanks to the smooth dual-clutch and drag-reducing architecture). This platform will dominate every mile.

March 20th marked the first day of spring - a season of rebirth and regrowth. But, it's also the season when the highly-anticipated 2018 Nissan Kicks will hit dealership lots. First unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the Kicks drummed up a great deal of excitement from subcompact SUV fans, especially since this new vehicle is set to replace the now defunct (and somewhat polarizing) Nissan Juke. Models will be available for test driving as soon as June 2018.

The Nissan Kicks will be anchored by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine, which will produce 125 horsepower and 115 lb-ft of torque. Aided by a smooth and efficient Xtronic transmission, the Kicks is expected to achieve fuel economy ratings near 33 mpg combined. It will be offered in front-wheel drive only, which will help keep its efficiency ratings on the higher end.

The 2018 Nissan Kicks will be offered in three well-equipped trims - the S, SV and SR. Among the list of standard features found on theÂ base grade are Automatic Emergency Braking, a Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System, three USB ports, roof rails and Intelligent Auto Headlights with adjustable sensitivity and timing (including twilight and wiper activation).

Inside, the Kicks promises a quality interior boasting a futuristic design, complete with a cabin full of the innovative features expected by its tech-hungry target audience. All trim levels will feature a 7-inch color infotainment system, along with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for added connectivity. Blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic warning and an around-view monitor are also standard.

Automotive spies are at it again - and this time, they have their eyes on the highly-anticipated 2019 Nissan Murano. The SUV was recently spotted in partial camo, boasting exterior updates that have speculators very excited.

Upon first glances, it appears the 2019 Murano will embrace similar design cues as its sibling, the new Nissan Altima, which is set to debut at the 2018 New York Auto Show. Based on the spy footage, the Murano features a revised Nissan V-Motion grille, which is flanked by sharp-looking LED headlamps. Around back, there are also new taillights, which look to have more red in their coloring than the usual mix of crimson and clear parts.Â

As for the interior, rumors are swirling about there being an updated infotainment system, similar to the all-new 2018 Nissan Kicks. We also expect that the Murano will include safety features from the automaker's ProPilot Assist line-up, which would be well-received by Seattle drivers. Word on the street is that the SUV's engine specs will remain the same, but as we know, Nissan does like to surprise the masses, from time to time.Â

The 2019 Nissan Murano is expected to make its debut later this year. To learn more about its availability, pricing and specs, be sure to check back to our blog or contact our team at Kirkland Nissan to remain in the loop.

Seattle Z enthusiasts, listen up! Word on the street is that a replacement for the 370Z could debut in the next two years. This news comes from leaked info from Nissan senior officials, which was published in theÂ U.K.'s Autocar magazine.Â

Dubbed the 400Z, the coupe is expected to be unveiled in 2019 - the same year as the original Z's 50th anniversary. The new car is not expected to hit dealerships until 2020.

While Alfonso Albaisa, Nissan Design Chief, and Phillipe Klein, Chief Planning Officer, have advocated for a Z-car successor, the rumors from speculators confirm that the new Z has been locked-in for production and that it will be a twin of Infiniti's Q60. The car will reportedly share the same engine and platform, boasting the Q60's 399-horsepower 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6, as well as a longer wheelbase. A Nismo tuned version might also be available, offering all-wheel drive and 475 horsepower.

Sounds exciting, right? Our team at Kirkland Nissan will keep our ears to the ground for more news about an upcoming 400Z. In the meantime, you can browse our online inventory to check out our in-stock 2018 370Z coupes by clicking here. To schedule a test drive, contact us today.
