The Datsun 1300 Saloon was a compact car produced by Nissan under the Datsun brand between 1968 and 1973. It was a popular choice for its affordability, reliability, and fuel efficiency, particularly in Europe and Australia. The 1300 Saloon was essentially a slightly larger version of the earlier Datsun 1000, sharing many mechanical components but boasting a more powerful engine. It was available in three trim levels: the standard 1300, the more luxurious 1300 Deluxe, and the sporty 1300 SSS.

The 1300 Saloon was powered by a 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine, which was initially carbureted but later received a fuel injection option. It produced between 60 and 80 horsepower, depending on the year and trim level. The engine was mated to a four-speed manual gearbox in most models, with a two-speed automatic transmission being offered on some later models. The 1300 Saloon was known for its responsive handling and comfortable ride, making it a popular choice for both daily commuting and weekend drives. Despite its modest size, the saloon offered surprisingly spacious interiors, comfortably seating four adults and offering adequate luggage space. The 1300 Saloon was a significant vehicle for Datsun, helping solidify the brand's reputation for quality and affordability in the global market.
