Hummel's Nissan

Ever since the Nissan LEAF was introduced to our Hummel's Nissan showroom, we just haven't been able to stop raving about it. In addition to great fuel efficiency, the model can now add superior safety to its list of highlights. This is because the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) recently named the LEAF a "Top Safety Pick" for 2013.

It's easy to see that Nissan is not afraid of stepping outside the box to explore new innovations, especially when looking at its popular all-electric Nissan LEAF model. With over 50,000 of them sold worldwide since its debut in 2011, the automaker has become a leader in developing hybrid technology. To expand its lineup further, it will debut a new hybrid system within the fourth-generation of the Nissan Pathfinder scheduled to be released this summer.

For those of you in the greater Des Moines area that are familiar with the new Nissan lineup, you are probably well aware that it offers a wide variety of vehicles designed to suit a multitude of different lifestyles. However, did you ever think that one of the vehicles had the potential to be transformed into a Mobile Repair and Restoration Van?

It's been a little while since we have heard anything new about the Nissan NISMO brand, but the automaker most certainly hasn't forgotten about it. In fact, it recently announced its plan to give the NISMO brand a bigger global presence, while exclusively making it a motorsports and performance car line. It also unveiled a new global headquarters and development center for the brand in Japan. Here at Hummel's Nissan we are excited to uncover the details for all of you in the greater Des Moines area.

With summer just around the corner, there are countless things to look forward to. Whether it's a vacation with your family or perhaps a spontaneous road trip to visit friends, the season always signifies the promise of adventure.

This is not only because of its spacious interior, innovative technology and superior efficiency, but also because it will be available in eight exciting exterior colors. We are bringing all of you in the greater Des Moines area a rundown of what to expect.
