For the A-series 1000cc Engine see: A10 Engine

Nissan A10 chassis was marketed as Datsun Violet/510/Auster/Stanza/160J (1977-1981). Violet was Nissan's C-class (compact) "budget" model family. It differed from the Bluebird family notably by not using IRS. With the 810, Bluebird moved upscale (luxury sedan) while A10 Violet continued as the lesser compact sedan. The A10 is nearly identical to Sunny B310, except for trim including different grille and rear lights. In North America the A10 was badged as a Datsun 510.
