Nissan to return to Chicago Auto Show
Nissan Motor Co. has reversed its decision not to take part in the Chicago Auto Show because of the lack of new vehicles to unveil. But the company is sticking to its decision not to attend the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
Nissan spokesman Alan J. Buddendeck said late Wednesday the company found a way to maintain a presence at the Chicago show after talking with dealers in the Chicago area.
Nissan made a splash last week at the Los Angeles Auto Show, where it unveiled the Nissan Cube, an updated 370Z roadster and a low-priced Versa.
Buddendeck said Nissan paid for the exhibition space at the Chicago show, so it will supply the cars and local dealers will staff it.
