Prince Motor Company
The President was available with either the 4.0-litre "Y40" V8 engine, developed specially for that model, or the 3.0-litre "H30" straight-six. Very lavishly appointed for its time, the President served as the official car of the Japanese Prime Minister Eisaku Satō, while the Emperor of Japan was transported in one of four Nissan Prince Royals developed by Prince Motor Company. In 1971 Nissan offered EAL (Electro Anti-lock System) as an option on the Nissan President, this became Japan's first electronic ABS (Anti-lock braking system).
