Since 1968, eight generations of Laurel have been manufactured in Japan.
Instead the Laurel was sold at Nissan Motor Shop as the junior model to the larger V8-powered Nissan President. The Laurel was not marketed new in Japan at Nissan Prince Shop locations that sold the Skyline and Gloria, former Prince products. Released as a Nissan after Prince merged with Nissan, Laurels shared many components and architectures with the Skyline range. The first Laurel was developed by the Nissan Tsurumi R&D Division and assembled at the Musashimurayama Plant of the former Prince Motor Company in 2-door and 4-door variants. In Japan, the Laurel was marketed soley as a Nissan model, rather than a Datsun model. Introduced in 1968 as a new model positioned above the 1968 Datsun Bluebird 510, the Laurel offered the luxury of the Nissan Cedric 130 in a smaller size.
The Nissan Laurel is a front-engine, rear-drive two- and four-door sedan manufactured and marketed by Nissan from 1969 to 2002.
