1971 Datsun Sales Brochure, "The Datsun 240-Z"
Add to SetSummary
Datsun introduced the 240Z for 1970. The two-seater was designed in part to appeal to the American market. It boasted a six-cylinder, 150-horsepower engine, and it had a reported top speed of 125 mph. The sporty coupe helped expand Datsun's -- and corporate parent Nissan's -- image beyond economical compact cars. The 240Z remained in production through 1973.
