How Do You Spell NISSAN?
Pronunciation: [nˈɪsən] (IPA) 
The name "Nissan" is pronounced as /niːsɑːn/ (NEE-sahn) in the United States, while in Japan it is pronounced as /nissan/ (nee-SAHN). This discrepancy in pronunciation relates to how the name was originally spelled in its native language. In Japanese, the brand name is written in katakana as ニッサン (Nissan), so the pronunciation rule is straightforward, however when headed westward, noticeable spelling differences emerged. Such discrepancies typically arise due to phonetic differences between different languages and how they accommodate foreign words.
