Nissan Gloria BLSI

1959 – 1962

The Gloria is a large luxury car that was first introduced in 1959 by the Prince Motor Company in Japan. Following the merger of Prince Motor Company with Nissan Motors, the car was rebranded as the Nissan Gloria. Initially based on the Prince Skyline, the Gloria line was later merged with the Nissan Cedric in 1971 and both models were produced until 2004, when they were replaced by the Nissan Fuga. After Nissan took over Prince's operations, the Gloria was sold alongside the Nissan Skyline through the Nissan Prince Shop network, which consisted of dealerships that were previously affiliated with the Prince company. The iconic Prince G engine was utilized in the Gloria until 1969 before being replaced with other powertrain options.
