The Nissan President was a Japanese luxury limousine introduced by Nissan in the 1960s as a luxury sedan sold only in the Japanese market. The President was comparable with Rolls-Royce models and the Toyota Century. It is mainly used by Japanese dignitaries and elite businessmen.
Many of the later President models (1990 onwards) were based on the Nissan Cedric platform, but were distinctly different. There were 4 trim levels; base, JS, Sovereign (long wheelbase version) and the Royal Limousine (split passenger compartment version).
To compete with other luxury marques in Japan, the Nissan President incorporated trim made outside Japan (such as using Conolly leather).
During Nissan's restructing in 1999, production was temporarily halted. Due to Nissan's cost cutting in 2003, the President was replaced by a rebadged Nissan Cima.
The Nissan President is rebadged for sale in the USA as the Infiniti Q45.
