The 2008 Nissan Teana is about as big a change as you can have without completely disregarding the previous model. The images speak for themselves, and although the styling of the Teana will probably not please everyone, fans of the original car should have few complaints. Personally, I like it.
Inside, the design is very nice indeed. Not quite as minimalist as the outgoing model, but I think Nissan has succeeded in keeping things clutter free and it looks like they haven't followed Honda who put over 80 buttons all over the Accord console. Actually it looks more like Nissan were taking cues from Volvo when they penned this interior. Either way, the result is a good one.
Nissan is likely to retain the 2.0 litre 4-pot engine to allow it to compete at the lower end. But we can expect the 2.3 litre VQ23DE to be replaced by the larger and more powerful 2.5 litre VQ25DE for the mid-range models. Nissan could also offer the VQ35DE for the range topper.
Nissan VQ engines are renowned for their smooth power delivery and refinement, and things should get even better with the new Teana. The V6 2.5 litre engine will be the most popular.
In Japan the engines are matched to CVT transmissions.
Well, the new Teana was first shown at the 2008 Beijing Motor Show, and has since been released in Japan, China and Singapore. Here in Thailand, Nissan have been offering very attractive financing packages on the current Teana, and it is highly likely that the new Teana will arrive within the next 6 months.
