Nissan's Commitment to Technology

The cutting edge of driver safety

Nissan prides themselves on being in the forefront of vehicle safety. Build quality is second to none (Read an amazing story of survival in an Altima here). Of course, with the development of powerful automotive computers and control systems, safety is no longer about brute force. Let's take a quick look at Nissan's cutting-edge tech.

ProPilot Assist

ProPILOT Assist is a hands-on driver assist system that combines Nissan's Intelligent Cruise Control and Steering Assist technologies and includes a stop and hold function that can bring the vehicle to a full stop, hold in place and can bring you back up to speed when traffic starts moving again. ProPILOT also syncs with the navigation system providing additional information to better predict the freeway ahead. ProPilot uses radar and cameras to "see" the road in real-time.

Available in the All-New Nissan Ariya EV (coming to Nissan City in 2022), ProPILOT Assist 2.0 will allow hands-off single-lane driving, as well as hands-on guided lane changing abilities.

Intelligent Braking

Automatic Emergency Braking uses radar technology to track the vehicle in front of you and can give you audible and visual warnings and apply braking to help you avoid or reduce the severity of a frontal collision. 

Available Rear Automatic Braking monitors the area directly behind your vehicle for stationary items you might not see. If you fail to stop, it can automatically engage the brakes to help avoid a rear collision or lessen the severity of an impact.

A helpful hand on the highway

Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention: Changes lanes with confidence. This feature spots a vehicle in the blind spot area, and gives you a nudge back if you start to move over.

Intelligent Lane Intervention: Helps to keep you between the lines if you start to drift out of your lane.

Parking made easy

Who loves to park - NOT! Nissan is all over it, with great features that take the work out of parking.

The ProPILOT Park system is a package of assist controls that work together for convenience and safety.

  • Rear Cross-Traffic Alert - When backing out of a parking space, Rear Cross Traffic Alert makes it easy by watching the area around the rear of the vehicle and can warn you about detected approaching vehicles you might not see. 
  • Nissan Intelligent Around View Monitor - This is major cool😎. Tight parking space? Now you have a simulated bird's eye view of your surroundings, so you can see what you might have missed.
  • Nissan Intelligent Backup Intervention - Looks out behind you and can automatically brakes for objects you can't see.

Nissans are all about courtesy on the road

Available High Beam Assist automatically switches to low-beam headlights when it detects a vehicle ahead, and turns the high beams back on when you need them.

Available Traffic Sign Recognition keeps you up to date with the latest speed limit by detecting road signs as you go.

A helpful hand when you want it

When you’re on a steep hill, there’s always that car behind that’s too close for comfort. Thankfully, Hill Start Assist can hold brake pressure for a few seconds to help keep you from rolling backwards.

Enjoy hugging curves with handling that feels effortless. Intelligent Trace Control reads the situation and, if needed, can brake each wheel individually to help you steer smoothly through the corners. Intelligent Trace Control enhances the great cornering and tracking that you already experience in a Nissan.

Bump? What bump? Active Ride Control can automatically apply the brakes and adjust motor torque to smooth out your ride, turning those mountains into molehills.

Delicious Prize Wheel Destinations

Nissan City is known for an exceptional customer experience from start to finish. To add extra fun for our customers, we have a Prize Wheel that everyone gets to spin for a perfect new car day! Among the prizes are gift certificates to some great local restaurants. We thought we’d dive into a few of them. Main Street in Port Chester is home to deliciously diverse cuisine. Our first stop is Salsa Picante at 110 Adee Street, (914) 481-5488. Salsa Picante is known for its authentic Mexican cuisine. Your choice of fresh traditional, chipotle or tropical guacamole is made at your table - sample all three with fresh crunchy tortilla chips. Many traditional dishes like fajitas, chicken mole, burritos and combination platters are on the menu. Fresh ingredients and a dedication to traditional cooking makes Salsa Picante a worthwhile destination. If you are in the mood for pizza and beer (always a great combination), try the Colony Grill, located at 35 Abendroth Ave, (914) 934-2428. The Colony Grill is known for its variety of pizza toppings and large selections of beer and ales. The pies have a thin and crispy crust with a hint of char. Their signature topping is “hot oil” which is spicy and full of flavor. Wash down your slices with a unique beer on tap like Allagash White, Sloop Brewing Co. seasonal selection, or a good old Guinness. Feel like trying some Peruvian food? Visit Panka Bistro located at 167 Westchester Ave (just off Main St) (914) 481-5424.  You can select traditional Ceviche (ceviche originated in Peru), tender and succulent barbecue whole chicken, or ribeye steak served with yucca and rice. Try something new and quench down a glass of cold purple corn juice, or try some Concha Y Toro merlot (Maulee). Peruvian cuisine at its best!

Spring has arrived! Time for some TLC for your vehicle

Winter is tough on your vehicle. Now that the weather is warming up it’s time to perform some important maintenance to keep things running smoothly. Routine maintenance Now that winter is in the rearview mirror, schedule a service checkup with our Nissan Service Center. Your appointment doesn’t have to be a scheduled service interval visit. Let the expert techs perform a thorough check of your vehicle’s fluids, tire pressure and treads, battery and engine/transmission systems. Fresh clean oil and other fluids ensure that your engine, transmission and drivetrain run smoothly. Winter takes a toll on your battery After winter, your car battery might be on its deathbed. Low temperatures forced your battery to work harder by slowing down its chemical reactions. Now, high temperatures are right around the corner, ready to evaporate essential battery fluids and speed up corrosion. There’s a chance that one hot day could leave your battery DOA. Avoid the inconvenience of a car that won’t start by getting your car battery tested and if necessary, replaced, before it’s too late. Tires Check your tire pressure in the morning, and adjust your tires based on that reading. Your tire pressure should match the recommended tire pressure in your vehicle manual. In general, tires lose or gain 1 PSI (pound per square inch) for every 10℉ change in temperature, and both under-inflated and over-inflated tires can cause problems on the road. Our Nissan Service Center will check your tire’s tread depth and wear patterns as well, and recommend tire rotation and/or replacement. Wiper blades and wiper fluids Winter ice and debris are not your wiper blades friends. Our Service Center will replace them for a clean, streak-free windshield. Top off your washer fluid as well. A full detail There’s nothing better than a top to bottom clean and shine for your vehicle after a messy winter! Our Full Service Detail leaves your vehicle sparkling inside and out. Speak to one of our Service Representatives for details. And check our Specials page for other discounted services. Your Nissan is built to last a long time, but it does need your help. Doing your part by performing seasonal maintenance will make all the difference for years of comfortable, trouble-free driving.
