The Nissan Crew was a mid-size sedan manufactured by Nissan Motors, sold only in Japan and mostly used as taxicabs, driver training and by law enforcement agencies. Its FR layout and simple construction created a steady following converting Crews into racing use.

Its main competitor was the Toyota Comfort.

As of 2018, it's known to be sold used between 260,000-980,000 yen.

History

Production of the Nissan Crew started at Nissan Shatai in July 1993. While the majority of Crews were used as taxis, a civilian model was available between 1994 and 2002 known as "Crew Saloon".

Autech has been involved in modifying Crews for welfare taxi models where the front passenger seat is moved to allow a disabled passenger to sit in front.

Models

LX

The LX consists of the LX Saloon and the Saloon Type G.

Galue I

The Crew forms the basis for the Galue I sedan by Mitsuoka, produced from 1996 to 1999. It shares the same RB20E engine.
