The Nissan (in Swedish pronounced as /ˈnɪ̂sːan/) is a 200 km long river in southwest Sweden. It ends in the Kattegat bay of the North Sea in Halmstad. The straight middle and upper course of Nissan follows a branch of the Protogine Zone – a zone of crustal weakness in western Sweden.[3] Nissan drains the western part of the South Småland peneplain.[4]
