How are you supposed to pronounce Nissan?

I prefer the British way "Ni-san" just the way it’s spelled. Why the hell do people in America pronounce it "Knee-Sawn"?!??

Probably because thats how it's pronounced in it's television commercials.

Yeah, just like they pronounce Hyundai "hunn-day" in the commercials. What they think we are so stupid that they have to change the pronunciations for us? As far as I know North America is the only place where they sell the products as Knee-Sawn and Hunn-Day!
