A Benefit Corporationâs articles of incorporation must state that the corporation is a Benefit Corporation, and that one of its purposes is to create a general public benefit. As such, a company obligates itself to create a general public benefit by becoming a Benefit Corporation.
Jim Y. , Marietta, Ga. At Nissan, SV apparently is internal code for one or two steps above the base model.. The SV models in Nissan's lineup are a step up from the S version in price and standard equipment, and the S models are typically the lowest or second-lowest priced versions.
Nissan couples a detuned version of its 2.5-liter four, generating 158 hp, to a permanent-magnet AC synchronous motor-generator that produces up to 40 hp. Thus the Altima Hybrid puts out a total of 198 hp. The electric motor has enough low-end torque that it alone can get the Hybrid moving from a standing start.
