Nissan is one of the most popular car makers in the world, but few people know it also used to make spacecraft engines. The Lambda 4S-5, an experimental carrier rocket, was developed by Nissan; in 1970, it launched Japan's first satellite into space. Over the years, the brand has bolstered its success by entering a strategic alliance with Renault, a French manufacturer, and Mitsubishi, also based in Japan. The fastest car by Nissan is the GT-R, which can do 0-60 in less than three seconds - a genuinely eye-watering speed.
