Nissan chassis model B210 was the third-generation Sunny. They were sold during Model years 1974-1978 and marketed in various countries as the Datsun B-210 or Datsun Sunny. In some countries it was designated Datsun 120Y or Datsun 140Y, depending on the engine fitted.
It is common to confuse the "Datsun 210" with the "Datsun B-210", but they are different generations altogether, sold during different years.
