QUOTE(Kitty_catts @ Apr 28 2019, 06:44 PM) As a fellow owner, i would say parts quality is shit. Maybe perodua parts last longer than nissan. And as someone mentioned before, to change smthg, u have to take apart a lot of things. good point! Nissan spare parts are shit! Only mad people will buy Nissan.

Bad news from USa
......Nissan's more immediate problem was with the continuously variable transmissions it uses in its vehicles. Nissan said it has earmarked an extra ¥66 billion ($590.5 million) to extend warranties to seven years, from five, on CVTs used in certain U.S. models.
The campaign covers more than 3 million vehicles sold from 2012 to 2017, including the Sentra, Versa and Altima sedans, Karube said. The CVTs begin to rattle and vibrate with age.

I am not surprised, because if you actually read through the Nissan FB comments got quite a group of unhappy customer from X-Trail and Serena C26 had issues With their CVT. But today I read something about improved CVT durability in the facelift X-Trail video drive review in Paultan.
On the side note... It seems official from TCM, no more Teana. Focus on SUV than D segment.

Going full sub line up also not there with one X trail

If Malaysia unable to CKD, price wise they can't compete at all. If let's say we can CKD also, it will take years, new techs will be out by then. Sad really. I'm hoping the Expander comes in at least to join in affordable people carriers. Since Proton Ertiga discontinue as well.

QUOTE(Jedi @ Apr 27 2019, 10:29 AM) My spouse family use exclusively nissan cars. Nissan Latio almera cefiro teana x trail IMHO Fuel saving yes No power also yes Expensive parts yes. Easily broke down parts also yes. Appearance not appealing also yes If you are a standard day to day or family man driver Nissan is for you. If u are a spirited driver then this car is not for you I have a Honda city myself. I liked it more than their sedan. Overall its a no to Nissan for now. But u should paultan the image of up and coming nissan that is gonna replace almera sylphy and American teana. Those look really beautiful interior and exterior. I will definitely test drive and consider trade in my Latio if its on par or better than Honda Not really, There is the GTR and fairlady....

It could be a very long while waiting for this whole business of Nissan gang up with Mitsubishi to infighting with Renault to resolve and move on This post has been edited by EnergyAnalyst: Apr 30 2019, 05:48 PM

I view it that the reason Nissan isn't successful here is because of the distributor.
Mostly focused on bottom of pyramid cars when the market had moved on.
Wish they would bring in the Qashqai and Juke. Definitely would be a CHR, HRV and possibly even a CRV fighter. Qashqais are among the consistently best selling cars in EU.
For Japanese cars, I will pick a Mazda these days.

Mazda is really the only Japanese brand that has made and continuing to make great strides. I find smaller sized brands a lot more offensive these days, even Subaru

https://www.zigwheels.my/car-news/nissan-ma...models-on-cards» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Nissan Malaysia to extend its lineup; four models on cards Published: Today By Ajay Singh, 199 Views KUALA LUMPUR: Nissan Malaysia passenger car lineup currently consists of Almera, Serena S-Hybrid, X-Trail facelift, and Navara pickup. Apart from this, the brand has three commercial vehicles on offer. However, all is going to change soon, as Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM), Sales and Marketing Director Chris Tan during X-Trail’s media drive said that the company would launch a new model in the country within six months of its debut in the neighboring countries, Thailand and Indonesia to be specific. Thus, giving us hopes to meet new Nissan cars soon.
We are expecting to get out hands on the new N18 Nissan Almera. This fourth-gen sedan would be introduced with the much anticipated B-segment crossover, the Nissan Kicks. Mr. Tan, during the media drive also revealed that the all-new Nissan Sylphy unveiling would follow the Almera introduction in the Malaysian market.
Though the actual timeline of the launches is not revealed by the company, however, it’s known that the ASEAN spec Kicks will arrive ‘very soon. The crossover’s arrival will be followed by the new Almera that recently made its debut in North America as Versa.
In its new version, the Nissan sedan sits on the V-platform that’s a product of the Renault-Nissan Alliance and can be found on new March/Micra. Design-wise, the new Almera has taken a radical jump over the ongoing model that was introduced back in 2012. While the exterior wear’s a sharp suit, the cabin gets a contemporary look and feel.
Further, Mr. Tan said that the company is under no plans to bring back the Teana nameplate which it dropped a while ago for the Malaysian market. So, no fifth-gen L33 Teana for us. What we’ll be getting is the all-electric second-gen Leaf, the car is expected to make a mid-year debut. Leaf will come first , rejoice.
