Manufacturer Verdict (Position - 21st)

More than any other car maker, Nissan has placed its faith in 4x4s. The firm’'s UK range now includes six all-wheel-drive models, as it claims that’s what it's customers want. Unfortunately, your reviews have seen it drop three places in this chart. Disappointingly, the Nissan range can'’t get higher than 12th in any one category. But will the popularity of SUVs work in Nissan’'s favour? Only time will tell.
