As it’s been the case for the last couple of years, Japanese car maker Nissan enjoyed constant increase in sales, reporting sales of 93,730 units versus 73,404 units a year earlier, an increase of 27.7 percent.

Nissan Division sales were up 26.3 percent for the month, also a December best. Sales of Infiniti vehicles rose 37.3 percent over the prior year.

Nissan Rogue and Versa set new December records. Rogue totaled 10,363 deliveries, up 58.2 percent; and Versa at 10,201, an increase of 49.8 percent. The 100-percent electric, zero-emission Nissan LEAF marked its first deliveries in December, but it’s expected to gain a big share of the market in the coming years.

Infiniti sales for December were 12,502 units, up 37.3 percent from the 9,108 units sold in the same month a year earlier. The all-new Infiniti M Line finished the year strong, with deliveries up 115.5 percent over December 2009.

“We finished the year strong, thanks to high demand for bread-and-butter models like Altima, Versa, Sentra and Rogue,” said Al Castignetti, vice president and general manager, Nissan division. “We’re continuing Nissan’s growth, with double-digit gains in 2010 for the majority of our lineup, which is only strengthened by the addition of great new vehicles like Nissan LEAF and Juke.”
