Datsun Saves ... Your Money
DATSUN SAVES an important personal resource: your money.
One savings leads to another.
With demands for fuel and energy rising faster than the supply, it's more important than ever for all of us to conserve resources. Driving a new Datsun 1200 is one sure way to save gasoline. And that, of course, leads to another kind of savings: your money.
Fuel economy and other considerations.
The Datsun 1200 gets around 30 miles per gallon, over twice the national average of about 13.5. But that's not all a 1200 conserves. It saves space, for example. You'll park in leftover places you used to pass up. It's a joy to drive and handle, and it's simple and inexpensive to service. With just average care, a Datsun 1200 will last a long, long time.
Luxuries aren't forgotten. Standard on the Datsun 1200 Sport Coupe: reclining bucket seats, tinted glass, fold-down rear seat, white-walls and wheel covers. Test drive one at your dealer soon. Discover that driving comfortably and saving money can go hand-in-hand! Drive a Datsun . . . then decide.

Government report proves Datsun saves.
The government's Environmental Protection Agency has run gas mileage tests on all domestic and imported cars sold in the U.S. The tests simulated typical urban driving, and the Datsun 1200 delivered the highest mileage of all.
To dramatize this economy, we drove a Datsun 1200 from Los Angeles to New York. We say the car gets around 30) miles per gallon, but in this case we were wrong. Without special tuning or special equipment, we got nearly 38. We spent less than $30 for gas, coast to coast!
With the energy crisis making headlines every day, good gas mileage is more important than ever. That's why the Datsun 1200 makes so much good sense. It's the best way we know to save money without giving up the fun of driving!

With the demand for fuel rising faster than the supply, here's one way to help ease our energy crisis. According to the latest U.S. Bureau of Highways figures, the national average for gas mileage is about 13.5 miles per gallon. The new Datsun 1200 gets around 30 miles per gallon or over twice the national average. The average car in the U.S. is driven just over 10,000 miles a year, so you can save about a gallon of gas every day by driving a 1200. With gasoline prices going up, it's a considerable saving of another important resource: your money. Drive a Datsun ... then decide.
