The November 2018 arrest and imprisonment of Alliance chairman and CEO Carlos Ghosn, doesn't seem to have helped.

All Nissan Cars are made in North America except the Z (263 units) and the GT-R (57 units). Cars in 2022 were the Versa, the Sentra, the Altima, the Maxima, and the LEAF with the Maxima being discontinued for 2023,

I didn't realize they were still making the Maxima. I don't recall seeing a newer one in a long time. I bought a Maxima about 25 years ago and it seemed like a really good car at the time. I also owned an Altima and I was not a fan of it because it felt cheap and not nearly as solid as the Maxima.

The Nissan Maxima debuted for model year 1982 as the Datsun Maxima, it replaced the earlier Datsun 810.

Subcompacts and Full size cars are being discontinued. The Nissan Maxima and Toyota Avalon are discontinued as most people want an SUV


Toyota cancelled the Yaris, but at least Nissan is keeping the Versa for now so there is a Japanese alternative to the Kia Rio
75,809 Versa® Starting MSRP $15,730
213,046 Sentra® Starting MSRP $19,950
209,146 Altima® Starting MSRP $25,290

I don't know what vehicles parents are buying for their teenagers. I assume it is all used cars.
