The Datsun Cherry, known later as the Nissan Cherry, was a series of subcompact cars which formed Nissan's first front-wheel drive model line. The Cherry line includes the first generation E10, the second generation F10, third generation N10, and the 4th generation N12. In Europe, the E10 Cherry was called Datsun 100A or Datsun 120A. The second-generation Cherry was known as F-II in Japan and "Datsun F10" in North America. It was Nissan's first front-wheel-drive model to be sold in North America. In Europe, F10 was known as Datsun 100A F-II (with A10 engine) or 120A F-II (with A12 engine). For export markets (outside of Japan), the N10 and N12 were considered part of the Nissan Cherry lineup, although in Japan they were known as the Pulsar. Specifically for North America however, the N10 was known as the Datsun 310.
