Nissan To Release All-New Presage

Tokyo, Japan, June. 27, 2003 - (JCN Newswire) - Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.
today announced that the fully redesigned Presage minivan will be
released in the domestic market on July 24.

One of the most prominent features of the all-new Presage is its simple
and easy-to-use seating arrangements. The third-row seat stows under the
floor in a simple one-touch operation to create a large luggage area.
The second-row seat on the passenger side incorporates a remote-control
walk-in feature that makes it easier to get in and out of the third-row
seat. This second-row seat also slides sideways, reconfiguring it as a
captain's seat or a bench seat, according to seating needs. With these
and other versatile seating arrangements that can be conveniently
reconfigured, this new minivan will enable families to enjoy a wide
variety of enriching activities together.

On the inside, the interior has been rendered in a stylish, modern
design befitting active lifestyles. In addition, the Presage is based on
the same FF-L (Front engine, Front drive, Large) platform that is
featured on the Teana. This gives the Presage solid underpinnings for
delivering sedan-like dynamic performance and superb ride comfort.

The Presage comes with a host of highly practical equipment and
attributes, including a glass hatch in the back door, a side blind spot
monitor, and outstanding ease of ingress and egress thanks to its low,
flat floor and sliding doors on both sides. The Presage also provides
high-level safety performance, featuring Japan's first SRS side curtain
airbag systems that extend protection even to third-row seat occupants.

The principal unique features of the Presage include:
*simple and easy-to-use seating arrangements;
*comfortable long-distance touring performance; and
*functions that offer convenience and useful features that will appeal
to female drivers.

5,000 units/month
