Overview

The Datsun-Nissan 140Y and 160Y were based on Sunny Excellent with distinctive grille, taillights, and interior compared to the regular B210 models. Although the South Africa 120Y also used the same grille, the 120Y did not use the Excellent-style taillights. Power was provided by L-series OHC (overhead camshaft) engines.
