The 1980 model featured the L20B engine which essentially was a carryover from the 620 model trucks that preceded the 720. It was a single overhead cam engine displacing 2 liters. The 1981-1986 models had the Z series carbureted engine which featured a single overhead cam operating adjustable rockers, cross flow head and dual spark plugs for each cylinder. 1981-1983 models had 2.2 liters of displacement designated Z22 while 1984-1986 had 2.4 liter engines designated Z24. 1984-1986 models had computer controlled carburetors with an oxygen sensor in the exhaust manifold.

Horsepower/Torque Specs:

Engine |  HP @ RPM  | Ft-lbs @ RPM
-------+------------+-------------
L20B   |  97 @ 5600 | 102@3200
       |            |
Z22    |  98 @ 4000 | 117@1800
       |            |
Z24    | 103 @ 4800 | 134@2800

The transmission on the 720 drives a divorced transfer case (that is, transfer case is separate from transmission). Later model Hardbodies and Pathfinders have a transfer case that is "married" (attached) to the transmission. The transmission shaft enters the transfer case at the top while front and rear drive shafts exit from the bottom. The transfer case is protected by a good sized rock shield and the selector lever is located between the driver and passenger seats.

June 1983 and earlier trucks use a H190 rear end (190mm) which is the same as used on the previous 620 trucks. July 1983 and later trucks (including 4cylinder Hard bodies to 1992) use a C200 rear end (200mm). This is incompatible with Pathfinder and V6 Hardbodies which use the H233B (233mm) rear end and the Patrol which uses another completely different rear end. All 720s use a R180 front differential (180mm).

Both automatic and manual locking hubs were offered from the factory on the 720. The auto locking hubs are of the variety that you must stop the truck to engage the hubs and back up 3 meters to disengage. With the hubs engaged, 4H can be engaged at speeds up to 50mph.

 

The Datsun/Nissan 720 pickup was Nissan's first foray into the 4 wheel drive mini-pickup market. It was introduced as a 1980 model and continued until 1986 when the current Hardbody style (model D-21) was introduced as a 1986.5 model. Prior models of Datsun/Nissan mini-pickups were the 521 and 620 which did not offer a 4 wheel drive option. The 720 features an independent front suspension with torsion bar springs, a leaf spring live axle rear suspension and a 4 cylinder engine displacing 2.0 litres at introduction later enlarged to 2.4 litres. Longbed and extra-cab models were also available.

Nissans have a reputation for having aftermarket parts that are expensive and hard to find. However, there are still quite a few significant aftermarket modifications you can make to your truck. Also, with a cutting torch and welder, anything is possible. Some wilder modifications I've seen were a 720 body over a shortened Chevy frame and drivetrain and another one with a solid front axle conversion.

Much of this document is centered towards the 4wd variant of the Nissan 720 pickup

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?

Thu, Jan 21 2016

You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai

Nissan Leaf electric vehicle goes on sale in Mexico

Sat, Jun 7 2014

Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn may not be intimately familiar with the Dean Martin 1962 classic South of the Border, but he may as well start crooning the standard now. The Japanese automaker said this week that the Nissan Leaf will officially be the first mass-produced battery-electric vehicle to be sold in Mexico. So break out the horn section. Nissan will start selling the Leaf through its Mexico City dealership network and is touting features such as the car's fast-charging port. That feature allows the car to be 80-percent charged in about a half hour. Nissan and the Mexican government are also working on an "electric corridor" of charging stations between Mexico City and Cuernavaca, which is about 55 miles to the south. There will also be "charging zones" in various districts throughout Mexico City, making it easier for the newly inaugurated EV drivers to charge up in town. Nissan has been working on Leaf brand exposure to Mexico City for years, sending the first batch of 100 all-electric Leaf taxis to Mexico starting in the fall of 2011. Last month, Nissan had its best ever month of sales in the US, moving 3,117 Leafs in May and the company has sold over 115,000 Leafs around the world. Check out Nissan's press release below. Nissan becomes the first company to sell a 100% electric vehicle in Mexico Nissan LEAF arrives in Mexico and becomes the first 100 percent electric vehicle to be comprehensively marketed in the country. The car of the future is already part of the present with more than 115,000 global sales. Nissan, the leader company in electric vehicles, strengthens its commitment to promote Zero-Emission mobility by opening charge centers distributed in Mexico. MEXICO CITY – Nissan today announced the launch of LEAF, the first 100 percent electric vehicle to be marketed in Mexico. The presale starts today and will continue until its arrival on June 30. Nissan LEAF is the first zero-emissions vehicle marketed in Mexico, confirming the leadership and the promise of the Japanese company to transform traditional driving into a new silent experience. "Nissan LEAF is a reality in the Mexican market," said Airton Cousseau, CEO of Nissan Mexicana. "We are proud to be the pioneer company to introduce the first zero-emissions vehicle leader in sales worldwide in Mexico.

Is 120 miles just about perfect for EV range?

Tue, Apr 15 2014

When it comes to battery-electric vehicles, our friend Brad Berman over at Plug In Cars says 40 miles makes all the difference in the world. That's the approximate difference in single-charge range between the battery-electric version of the Toyota RAV4 and the Nissan Leaf. It's also the difference between the appearance or disappearance of range anxiety. The 50-percent battery increase has zapped any lingering range anxiety, Berman writes. The RAV4 EV possesses a 40-kilowatt-hour pack, compared to the 24-kWh pack in the Leaf. After factoring in differences in size, weight and other issues, that means the compact SUV gets about 120 miles on a single charge in realistic driving conditions, compared to about 80 miles in the Leaf. "The 50 percent increase in battery size from Leaf to RAV has zapped any lingering range anxiety," Berman writes. His observations further feed the notion that drivers need substantial backup juice in order to feel comfortable driving EVs. Late last year, the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), along with the Consumers Union estimated that about 42 percent of US households could drive plug-in vehicles with "little or no change" in their driving habits, and that almost 70 percent of US commuters drive fewer than 60 miles per weekday. That would imply that a substantial swath of the country should be comfortable using a car like the Leaf as their daily driver - with first-quarter Leaf sales jumping 46 percent from a year before, more Americans certainly are. Still, the implication here is that EV sales will continue to be on the margins until an automaker steps up battery capabilities to 120 or so miles while keeping the price in the $30,000 range. Think that's a reasonable goal to shoot for?
