Nissan opened up a technology center in Atsugi, just west of Tokyo. Nissan has said it expects to have its own hybrid engine by 2010.
Nissan Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn has been cautious in his approach to hybrid cars. And so Nissans first hybrid, the Altima Hybrid, was built using technology from Toyota. But Nissan wants to go their own way.
Part of that reluctance has been a lack of funds to do research since their near total collapse in 1999. Only their partnership with Renault SA saved them.
Nissan is also developing a "three-liter car" capable of traveling 100 kilometers, or 60 miles, on just three liters -- or about three quarts -- of gasoline. The company hopes to unveil a new model in Japan in 2010.
