Your Sales, Service, and Ownership Questions, Answered

If you are shopping for a new Nissan, looking to service the one you have, or trying to determine whether an electric vehicle makes sense for Colorado driving, this page covers the questions South Colorado Springs Nissan hears most often.
Location and Hours
Where is South Colorado Springs Nissan located?+
Does South Colorado Springs Nissan offer test drives, and can I schedule one online?+
Models and Features
What Nissan models does South Colorado Springs Nissan carry?+
What is the difference between the Nissan Rogue and the Nissan Pathfinder?+
The Rogue may be the better fit if you prioritize easier maneuverability and do not need a third row. The Pathfinder is the stronger choice when you regularly carry more passengers, need additional interior flexibility, or plan to tow.
Is the Nissan Frontier a good choice for work and recreational towing?+
It can be a practical choice for jobsite equipment, recreational trailers, outdoor gear, and mountain trips without requiring the size of a full-size truck. Check the exact towing and payload ratings of the cab, bed, drivetrain, and trim you are considering.
Does South Colorado Springs Nissan carry the Nissan LEAF, and how does EV range work in Colorado?+
Colorado Springs elevation does not require a special type of EV charger. Real-world range can vary based on climbing, highway speed, extreme temperatures, cabin heating or cooling, vehicle load, and driving habits. Regenerative braking can recover some energy while slowing or descending, but it does not recover all the energy used during a climb. Review the dealership’s 2026 Nissan LEAF information for current details.
What is included with Nissan Safety Shield 360?+
Nissan Safety Shield 360 combines six driver-assistance features:
- Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
- Rear Automatic Braking
- Blind Spot Warning
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- Lane Departure Warning
- High Beam Assist
Many current Nissan models include the suite as standard equipment, but availability can vary by model and trim. Technologies such as Intelligent Lane Intervention, Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention, and ProPILOT Assist are separate features and should not be treated as part of the six-feature Safety Shield 360 package.
How do the Nissan Altima and Nissan Sentra compare?+
The Sentra is a more compact sedan and is rated at up to 38 MPG on the highway for the 2026 model year. It may be the better fit if you prioritize a smaller footprint and city efficiency, while the Altima provides more passenger space and available all-wheel drive.
How does the Nissan Certified Pre-Owned program work?+
Nissan offers three separate certification categories:
Nissan Certified applies to qualifying gasoline-powered Nissan vehicles that are up to six years old with fewer than 80,000 miles. These vehicles pass a 167-point inspection and include a 7-year/100,000-mile limited warranty and one year of prepaid maintenance or the first 15,000 miles, whichever comes first.
EV Certified applies to qualifying all-electric Nissan vehicles that are up to six years old with fewer than 80,000 miles. They pass a 139-point EV inspection and include a 7-year/100,000-mile limited warranty and one year of prepaid maintenance or the first 15,000 miles.
Certified Select can include qualifying Nissan and non-Nissan vehicles that are up to 10 years old with fewer than 100,000 miles. These vehicles pass an 84-point inspection and include a 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty.
