Nissan Bassara

Automobiles

The Nissan Bassara was a minivan, or MPV, that Nissan manufactured from November 1999 to June 2003. Its name comes from the Sanskrit word Vajara, which the article glosses as the prize or object of desire that encourages someone to yield to temptation. The Bassara competed with the Japanese-specification Honda Odyssey and the Toyota Gaia, and it shared a platform with the Nissan Presage and the Nissan R'nessa. It was sold only through Japanese Nissan dealerships called Nissan Prince Store locations, and it was discontinued when Nissan merged its five Japanese dealership networks into two sales chains and renamed the Prince locations Nissan Red Stage. Trim levels included the performance-minded Axis, J, J Splendens, Highway Star, V, V touring, X and X Touring.
