At Nissan, a car is more than just a means of travelling from A to B in the most comfortable and efficient way. Nissan sees the car as a part of an integrated network where you’re the central hub, and the brand’s job is to keep you connected and in control. That’s why Nissan has developed the Nissan Intelligent Mobility initiative.

Thousands of Nissan customers across India have got their first taste of Nissan Intelligent Mobility through the NissanConnect app. Once you download the NissanConnect app on your smartphone, you plug into a whole new universe of service and connectivity. How does it work? A factory-fitted Telematics Control Unit (TCU) in your Nissan car is connected to a secure server to keep you connected and in control of your car, thus keeping it safe and secure, while making things more convenient for you. All you have to do is download the app from your app store (available across all platforms), contact your dealer to activate it, and then just customise it to your personal requirement. NissanConnect has over 50 features to keep you connected. This service is completely free for the first three years for Nissan customers purchasing new Nissan cars. This technology is available on select variants of Sunny, Micra and Terrano.
