Nissan Knows Where you Want to Go: Nissan Navigation System

 

Nissan Navigation System from the 2013 Nissan Altima

If it weren’t for gas station directions, we may not have made it anywhere decades ago. But now, with the prevalence of navigation systems we find our direction in ways we never before imagined. Whether it’s a new coffee place in a quite spot outside the city or a hotspot for dancing the night away, our navigation systems can  show us a great time and take us some place unexpected.

Branded with the Nissan name, Nissan navigation systems are known for their advanced technology and reliability. Be sure that there’s no sink or swim when finding a new route with Nissan. While some other external navigation sources may take you out to shore, the Nissan system will never leave you stranded.

Nissan Navigation saves. It saves you two valuable assets including one that you can never get back and one that you worked hard to earn: Time and money.

Nissan navigation works hard to find the best route for you. Traffic that ticks time away is avoided as Nissan updates directions based on live traffic updates, helping you avoid the traffic as others continue to blindly jam up sticky situations

With all of the different “route type” options available, you can keep more cash in your pocket because the system looks for the most efficuent route for your needs. Even with the amazing gas mileage of the Sentra, Altima or 2014 rogue, Nissan found even more ways to make things easier on your wallet.

Along with voice-guided directions the map navigation settings are easy to employ despite having a wide variety of functions. Set your route type to ‘Fastest’ and Nissan Navigation will make sure you’re on time for whatever you have scheduled.  ‘Eco’ calculates the most economical route saving you gas and wear on your vehicle, while setting the map for ‘Shortest’ lets your Nissan show you the physically shortest distance between locations. In addition to these map features, you can also use your navigation system to avoid freeway or tollway usage.

Typing in your desired destination is as easy as knowing your ABCs, and saving addresses to the memory is another simple task in the user-friendly Nissan.

If you’re on the road and you need to grab a quick bite or need to refuel after days of driving, simply touch “places” on the menu screen and choose from “Nearby Restaurants” or Nearby Gas Stations”and you’ll be shown directions for corresponding options within a 50 mile radius. On specifically equipped vehicles you can even check real-time traffic events and weather conditions so you can stay informed on the go.

Also, on select model you can stay in tune with your phone, via NissanConnect which uses hands-free technology, your smartphone, and Nissan’s display screen so you’re never out of touch. It’s loaded with features and compatible with a growing list of apps that let you play your music, keep tabs on your social network, and navigate any city like a local.

Most importantly, Nissan will never leave you stranded. Nissan provides constant updates and service for their software and maps. Easily downloadable and always current their softwear and map updates are easy to install.

Come to Berman’s Auto Group Star Nissan or Mid City Nissan for a detailed, up-close look at the navigation system.

Meet the Number One Nissan Sales Consultant in the District: Adelita Fific

“I was scared of my own shadow”, said Adelita Fific recalling her first few days selling cars.

Starting at Mid City Nissan in 2006, Adelita never imagined just how far she’d come in just a few short  years with the company.

Adelita Fific, Mid City Nissan

In 1999, pregnant and scared, she moved from the turmoil in Bosnia to Chicago with the help of her sister. “I didn’t know a lick of English”, she said recalling the journey.

Not letting her adversities define her, Adelita assimilated herself into the American way of life and started work at Mid City Nissan.

“I had no experience…but they just told me to go in and have fun,” she recalled.

Her initial fear soon turned into a compelling drive to excel after she sold her first car, a 2006 Armada.

“I was 6 feet tall and bulletproof”, she said remembering the moment. After a few years on the sales floor, she began to develop her own goals and her own  solid sales mantra: “Speak clearly, answer intelligently and listen silently,” she says.

 “Every time you sell to a customer don’t forget them. They chose you out of 15,000 other sales people. Always remember and stay grateful.” Her  positive outlook sure seems to be working as she was recently crowned the top Nissan sales associate in the district.  Being number one out of 188 other people would prompt others to sit back and relax, but for Adelita it’s still not enough. “Being on top drives me to do better”, she said of her success.

 Also ranked 9^th out of 2041 for sales in the region, part of her success relates to the bonds she forms with the people who come into her life. She sees each person who comes into the dealership as a potential friend, and chance to form a lifetime relationship. “There are people who bought 7 or 8 cars from me. They’re more than a customer. I know their friends, their family…they are family,” she says.

 When asked which customer sticks out in her mind as her favorite she thoughtfully replied that it was impossible to asnwer, “Every sale has its story and it would be selfish of me to pick just one.”

 The respect she has for her customers even flows over to her coworkers, noting that’s its just as important to be nice and get a long with the people you work with.  Coincidentally, mere seconds after saying this, one of her coworkers brought in a giant bouquet of flowers to celebrate her birthday. “See? Be nice to your coworkers and they’ll bring you flowers”, she said with a laugh.

Veterans at Berman’s Auto Group Reflect on Time Served

While Mike Betancourt was at a job fair at his college nearly a year ago, representatives from Berman’s Auto Group approached him to ask if he’d ever thought about selling cars. When Mike responded that he hadn’t since he’d been in the Marines for the last 81/2 years, Berman’s representatives told him he was hired-on the spot.

Berman’s Auto Group doesn’t just welcome active members and veterans into their dealerships with military discounts, but they happily employ many of them too. On this Memorial Day, 2013 not only do we salute those soldiers who served here and abroad, but we salute the ones who now work under our own roof.

A few weeks after Berman’s Auto Group spoke to Mike, he arrived for his first day of work. Since then, he’s excelled at his job, attributing his success to the military training he received years before.

Military veterans of all ages are working through the ranks at the Berman Auto Group doing everything from selling cars like Mike to managing whole departments like Joon Choi who has been with the auto group for nearly 10 years. Before he got into the car industry, sales manager Joon Choi experienced life in the Marines for three years.

Working in avionics, Joon traveled the world, gaining the skills he would later use in civilian life. Joon agrees that serving in the Marines helped him to excel at his chosen career path in the auto industry.“We encounter different people every day in this business and my military time really helped me to learn how communicate with people from all walks of life,” says Choi.

Today, as the active captain of his sales crew he works hard to ensure that every customer leaves his dealership with their questions answered and their concerns eliminated.

“Different opinions, different people. That’s what America is and we worked to ensure that that’s what it will always be,” said Joe Fasanella, used car director at Berman’s Auto Group.

Joe served 5 years in the Marine Corps Special Forces where he says he learned the value of being able to relate to people, following up and even just staying in contact. According to Joe, once you live the military life, it’s ingrained permanently.

“It changes everything. Before it was only me. After I had a new family and we did everything as a unit. It really teaches you how to work as a group, and you need those skills in everything you do after,” he said.

According to Milton Stewart, it’s not just the way you see yourself that changes with time in the military, but the way you see others.  Stewart, a sales consultant at Mid City Subaru who served in the Army for 8 ½ years in their telecommunications department says that life’s priorities change with the experience.

“You see the worst that can happen to people and you have to survive through it. And I hope that on this day, people recognize and respect anyone who put a uniform on for this country,” he says.

The men and women who devoted countless minutes, thousands of hours and many years to the country, like Mike, Joon, Miton and Joe only hope that Americans appreciate their effort on this day.

“Appreciation. I hope they appreciate for a moment. Devote just one day to those who have fought and died for our county, ” said Betancourt.

Steve Waldrop, of Berman’s Infiniti of Chicago who served 4 years in the Army Nation Guard says he’s thankful for those who came before him and paved the way for him to serve. An even greater gift the Army provided him with? The value of life and how to live it.

“The Military taught me courtesy, leadership and to never take my life for granted. I’ll never forget that.” he said.

Although they all worked separately for different branches, in different years, and locations, they all worked towards the same goal. They worked to ensure the safety of this country and the freedoms within. Today, while their surroundings have changed, our military staff at Berman’s Auto Group work just as hard to serve their customers with the values, work ethics and discipline they learned while serving in the military.

Berman Auto Group Helps Feed My Starving Children

Withthe daily flow of city traffic adding to our hectic city life, it’s often easy to forget that other countries are completely stagnant with destitution. Often times, it’s refreshing to take time out of our own lives to help the lives of others because in the process we can learn to appreciate just how good we really have it- even if we’re not moving on the Edens.

Taking a breather from their normally busy routines, a small group of representing the Berman Auto Group volunteered their time with the Feed My Starving Children organization.

Mary, Elaine, Ken and work to make the food packs

 

Founded in 1987, Feed My Starving Children has been working as a nonprofit group to provide nutritionally complete meals for malnourished and hungry people in close to 70 countries.

During their volunteer time, Berman Auto Group’s CFO, Elaine Swift, Inventory Manager, Ken Swift, Todd Berman, Mary Joyce and Human Resources Manager, Sonia Schmidt worked to turn a fortified formula into special prepackaged meals to be delivered around the world. The Berman group managed to pack 52 boxes full with their efficient assembly line setup consisting of Sonia sealing bags, Todd working to pack the boxes and the others switching between duties like mixing the formula.
In all, one packed box contains 36 food bags  meaning that with the 52 boxes they produced  these volunteers managed to pack enough food to feed  around 34 children for up to 8 years.
Before the packing, the group watched a video about the organization and the hunger felt world-wide.

Sonia couldn’t fathom some of the haunting imagery she saw,  recalling a particularly haunting scene while shaking her head, “In some countries mothers will take actual mud and mold it into a patty to feed it to their children before bed so they don’t go to bed with hunger pains,” she said.

Along with their time, the Berman Auto Group also donated 250 dollars to their foundation and since each “MannaPack’ meal from Feed My Starving Children costs a mere 22 cents to produce, the amount will keep thousands from going to bed with a gnawing hunger.

Despite their hard work, Todd Berman said that they all still had a great time and that they hope to return soon. “Every time we had a box packed we had to do a team cheer to get someone to come take away the box.”It’s was really a lot of fun actually! “.If you have any questions about Feed My Starving Children or would like to make a donation please visit their websitehere!

Berman’s Auto Group at the 2013 North Shore Women’s Conference

It may have been a male dominated industry once, but for the Berman’s Auto Group this trend is on the fast track to be being passé. At any of our 4 locations you’ll find women selling cars, women in the service department and women as managers overseeing the showroom floor.

Not only are more women working in the auto industry today than ever before, they’re also making most of the purchasing decisions on everything from consumer electronics to vehicles.

With more and more women coming into positions of power, owning their own businesses and making such huge marks in the economy, Chicago area Chambers of Commerce stood up and took notice. Soon, the North Shore Women’s Conference was created and local Chambers from from Evanston, Skokie, Niles, Des Plaines and many more converged to show off their products and network with other businesswomen at the same time.

Complete with a guest speaker and catered lunch, over 70 Chicacgoland businesses were represented during the event with booths displaying their latest and greatest products. Those in attendance at the Holiday Inn, Skokie location included such companies as Andy OnCall, Dream Kitchens, Go Green Wilmette and of course, Star Nissan.

One of the few gentleman at the event, Star Nissan Sales Consultant Danny Aguayo set up an exhibit table with social media director, Rachel Lemieux. Together they laid out informational brochures featuring new vehicle  like the 2013 Atlima sedan and the new pathfinder and struck up great conversation with area business leaders and interested consumers.

Fellow exhibitor  Ashley Colby with Courage to Connect said she was thrilled to not only be an exhibitor but to be an attendee to the 6^th annual conference.

“I’ve made three connections for personal reasons and some connections for business at the same time. Along with business networking, I purchased a cake for my son’s birthday and a bracelet,” she said. With such an eclectic mix of industries attending the event there was no shortage of things to see and and people to connect with.

From 10:00 am on May 3^rd, 2013 to 1:30 pm Danny and Rachel got to talk to the community and a lot of visitors to their booth adored the Nissan brand. Attendee, Jan Leahy of Glenview raved about her 2010 Altima sedan. “People just come up to me and say it’s absolutely beautiful. This happens everywhere I go,” she said.

During intermission, local personality Nancy Gerstein spoke about her journey in the professional world inspiring all the guests over a lite lunch. Even more inspiring was seeing so many strong and influential women in the area all under one roof. We are so proud that we could be a part of this liberating event and we look forward to seeing you all next year.

Check out our Facebook page to see the photos from the event.

Infiniti of Chicago’s Q50 Preview/Pre-order Party

On May 16th from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., Infiniti Chicago will welcome the new Q50 into its dealership to give guests an up close look at the flagship for the brand’s restructuring.

Earlier this year Infniti announced that in order to form a more cohesive environment, they would be renaming all of their vehicles with the prefix ‘Q’. This new nomenclature started with the repositioning  of their famous G Sedan to the Q50.

Along with the change in name, came a bold new look and an increase in technology. The Q50 now boasts more under the hood and a dual touch-screen infotainment system on the dash.

Infiniti of Chicago invites all those who are interested in this new vehicle to attend and register for a chance to take the Q50 on a weekend-long test drive.  For those who want to be first in the nation to own the Q50, pre-orders can also be submitted during this event. Test drive requests can also be scheduled and reserved for future dates.

Along with complimentary hors d’oeuvres and cocktails, Infiniti of Chicago will have Q50 specialists on hand to answer any questions about the new vehicle.

Berman’s Infiniti of Chicago is part of the Berman Auto Group and has specialized in selling new and used Infiniti vehicles to residents in and outside of Chicago for years.

RSVP and we’ll make room especially for you! RSVP HERE!

Infinti Announces the QX60 Hybrid, Plans to Add it to USA Lineup

 

The 2014 QX60 Hybrid from Infiniti

 

Working hard on its branding renovation, Infiniti has recently announced that it would be releasing a new hybrid crossover set to debut at the New York Auto Show at the end of March.

Named the QX60, this 2014 Infiniti model features Infiniti’s Direct Response Hybrid motor and two-clutch system adapted to front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. With these two features in play, Infiniti hopes to push the QX60’s fuel economy to best-in-class. Expect the QX60 to get around 26 miles per gallon which is amazing for any crossover, let alone a 7-passenger luxury crossover.

Infiniti hopes to release the hybrid QX60 into their lineup this summer along with the previously announced newbie, the Infiniti Q50- which is replacing the G sedan. Previously the JX35, the QX60 was produced to continue the crossover’s reign as Infiniti’s 2nd best selling vehicle behind the G line.

With its release, Infiniti will be able to boast three hybrid vehicles in their lineup including the Q50 hybrid and the Q70 hybrid.  Its MSRP is projected to be only $3,000 above its non-hybrid counterpart. Infiniti created this vehicle in order to extend driving rage, enhance duel economy and reduce emissions without adding a major price increase to the line.

Powering the QX60 is a 2.5-liter supercharged engine and a 15 KW electric motor connected to a CVT Net system which allows the hybrid crossover to get around 250 horsepower.  The new hybrid also uses a regenerative braking system, meaning that the battery partially recharges during vehicle breaking.

With Infiniti placing added emphasis on technology, expect the QX60 to offer a wide range of standard and available amenities like Backup Collision Intervention system and more.

We will update with more information about the vehicle’s features and pricing after its official media unveiling on  March 27, 2013.

Mid City Nissan is Marching for Babies

Mid City Marching Crew: Jessica Bahena, Right; Ariana Rios, Mid; Nikki Carrizalez, left

While a screaming baby isn’t usually a pleasure to listen to, that first time a new mother hears her baby fill up his lungs and cry is a beautiful affirmation of life.

But when Jessica Bahena didn’t hear this confirmation cry in the delivery room after going into labor prematurely, fear completely took over.

“I thought right away he didn’t make it. They cleaned him out and gave him air and put the breathing tube in and he made it. But I couldn’t hold him for at least an hour and a half and even then, it was only for two minutes,” said Jessica.

While a large percentage of infants born prematurely suffer from an increased risk of lifelong disabilities such as cognitive issues, cerebral palsy, neurological problems, respiratory issues and sensory deficiencies or loss, those who come in contact with Jessica’s son today would never guess that he was born prematurely.

At the age of nine, he’s now a healthy, happy boy who drives his mother up the wall and back down again-but she wouldn’t have it any other way.

“He’s so active now, some days I just want to tell him to stop running. But, I’m just so happy he’s here,” she continues.

Years after her son was born, Jessica was preparing for her 2nd child when things took an unexpected turn after she went into labor at five months. Fortunately, doctors were able to stop the labor and she was placed on bedrest. Along with the bedrest sentence, she was also given weekly shots for the rest of her term, allowing her to make it to eight months before actual delivery. “I don’t want anyone to go thought this, not once, not twice- not ever,” she said while shaking her head.

Weighing a mere 3lbs 1oz, Jessica’s son was just one of 500,000 babies born prematurely that year and Jessica was just one of 500,000 mothers who had to go through the heart-wrenching pain of seeing her baby struggle for life. Today, as the rate of premature births slowly declines, Jessica wants to keep that downward trend going.

After reaching out to her friends at Mid City Nissan about The March of Dimes, she soon found that the issue of preterm birth was important to her coworkers as well.

“I wanted to do this for her… and this is just one way out of many that I can give back, it’s obviously something I want to do, “ said Nikki Carrizalez, a long-time friend and a fellow Mid City Nissan coworker.

Ariana Rios, a sales associate at Mid City Nissan decided to join the cause after seeing so many people around her affected by premature births.

“When Jessica said she was doing it, she said we can do donations or join the walk. My brother was born premature, one of my customers, her son is still in the hospital and it’s been six months, my husband’s cousin had twins who were also born premature and they were in the hospital for 6 moths too,” said Ariana.

Soon after, the three women decided to join forces with The March of Dimes and are now working to spread awareness to raise money for the organization. Touched by their drive and passion, their Mid City Nissan coworkers have donated what they could to support their fundraising team, 4hearts. Mid City Nissan as a whole also plans on walking in this year’s March for Babies on April 20, 2013.

Hoping to raise awareness for the organization and raise some money in the process, team 4hearts agrees that if their donations and time can positively affect even just one family, they will consider their efforts a success.

“It’s not really about the money; if you want to help us you can either donate or walk with us, “said Nikki.

I’m asking for dollar donations, I don’t care what I get. Whatever you want to give, It’s just to help! If you want, just donate your time-it’s only three miles, and you get to hang out with us,” said Ariana.

A donation to The March of Dimes through 4hearts not only goes towards the research that helped produce the shots that kept Jessica from having her baby at five months, but it also goes towards at-home care for premature babies.

There are so many ways you can help team 4hearts at Mid City Nissan! Click on the link below to make your monetary contribution, or even stop into the dealership to donate! Help us give babies a fighting chance!
