Drivers beg for return of beloved Nissan that was discontinued in 2007 and say it was one of the ‘best reliable cars’

Drivers are still pleading with automakers to bring the Nissan Primera back to the market despite it having been out of production for almost 20 years.

Nissan discontinued manufacturing the cherished model in 2007 as a result of dwindling sales as crossover SUVs gained popularity.

After the Japanese auto giant recently revealed that it is having trouble making a profit, vehicle enthusiasts are retroactively praising the model and pleading for its return.

The Nissan Primera was regarded as a reliable and pleasant vehicle that was available as a wagon or hatchback.

“Why was the Nissan Primera 200 STi discontinued? On X, one driver wrote.

“They should have improved it, it was a mean machine…had a red one many moons ago.”

Another claimed to have missed the model’s simplicity.

“Why [don’t] car companies make a model option, wind down windows, basic radio, no bells or whistles, no ac, small basic engine like the 80s?” The X user inquired.

“I would be overjoyed if Nissan revived the iconic Primera, which was one of the most dependable vehicles I’ve ever owned!

They went on, “I’d buy it tomorrow,”

From 1198 to 2002, the Primera was marketed in America under the name Infiniti G20, however it was mostly sold in Japan and Europe.

Nissan’s Qashqai crossover vehicle took the place of the Primera, which was manufactured from 1990 to 2007.

Other well-liked Nissan vehicles will soon join the Primera in the discontinued lineup, as the automaker is anticipated to retire additional models in 2025 as a result of its financial difficulties.

In the upcoming year, the Nissan GT-R, dubbed the Godzilla by auto enthusiasts, will no longer be available for purchase.

Due to dwindling sales, the two-door sports car is being phased out.

Some ardent auto enthusiasts, however, criticized Nissan for the choice.

One distraught driver scrawled, “Big mistake,” on X.

“The end of an era,” said another.

In the upcoming year, Nisan will also bid farewell to its pickup truck, the Nissan Titan.

Although other companies like Ford and Ram have produced more well-liked trucks, the pickup is still the most popular design in the US.

In a last-ditch attempt to save the last quarter of 2024, Nissan reduced the CEO’s compensation in half and laid off 9,000 employees as a result of their financial crisis.

A request for comment from The U.S. Sun was not answered by the carmaker.
