With the demand for hybrid vehicles rising, most car manufacturers try to keep up with what consumers want. Since 2007, Nissans only hybrid vehicle available was the Altima Hybrid. After its 2011 model, Nissan will stop selling its Altima Hybrid. Unfortunately, this was Nissans only attempt at the hybrid vehicle and was only available in nine states in the US.
