Test Drive Nissan Almera Classic since 2006 Sedan

Almera Classic.

We present the Nissan Almera Classic car. The machine segment with whose sales on the Russian market began in April 2006. It is designed on the basis of the existing Nissan Almera N16 and complements the Nissan line in Russia. The car is delivered only in the body of the sedan, most popular in Russia.
 
Nissan Almera Classic has been prepared for Russian operating conditions, it was tried at low temperatures in the winter and on a different road surface. In December 2005, January 2006, the car was tested (including on public roads) professional testes of Dmitrovsky landfill in the presence of the team of engineers from Japan and Korea. In total, the car drove about 20 thousand km. The daily route included the city cycle movement along the streets (with tramways, traffic lights, traffic jams), as well as the high-speed cycle on the Moscow Ring Road. Country regime of tests provided for runs on the roads of Solnechnogorsk, Dmitrovsky and Sergiev Posad districts. About 30 km was passed on roads without solid coating (soil). Every day the car did two circles with a length of about 300 km.
 
A few words about the design. Front suspension with MacPherson racks. Nissan Almera Classic is designed to keep the balance between comfort and good handling. Controllability has improved due to the increased rigidity of the structure, and the comfort has increased due to the decrease in friction in the amortized racks.
 
The use of rear multi-dimensional suspension with a transverse beam made it possible to improve the rate of car stability. Thanks to a broad track and optimal settings, the rear suspension provides high stability when turning turns. The rear multi-dimensional Nissan Almera Classic suspension is similar to those installed on PRIMERA and MAXIMA QX cars. Due to the multi-dimensional wheel design, there are perpendicular to the plane of the road during rotation, braking and when moving with any load, making the car control accurate and predictable.
 
To reduce the noise and vibrations, foam materials from an insulating urethane foam are applied to foaming the cavities of the body elements in the car. In the design of the roof and exterior door panels, vibration-insulating materials are also used.
 
The machine, including the main nodes and aggregates, is distributed by the overall guarantee of Nissan, which is three years or 100 thousand km of mileage. Warranty against end-to-end corrosion is valid for 12 years.

Volume of 1.6 l, power 107 liters. with. You cannot choose from anything, but about this single engine one can say that it will satisfy the requirements of the future owner. Due to the optimization of the phases of opening and closing the intake valves in relation to the movement of the vehicle (load and the frequency of rotation of the motor shaft) and the optimal setting of the intake manifold was able to increase the efficiency of the inlet process and increase the torque on the low and medium speed, as well as the maximum power at the maximum speed of rotation. . Optimization of the phases of ink valves using the CVTC system (system of continuous change of gas distribution phases) and the automatic transmission control algorithm made it possible to significantly improve fuel efficiency.

Transmission
Almera Classic is aggregated with a four-stage automatic or five-speed manual nissan gearbox.
Mechanical KP at discretion.
If it is supposed to operate the car away from the city, then the manual box is even preferable to automatic: in the case of force majeure circumstances, at least it will be possible to take a car on a tug.
Automatic CP advise.
Buying a foreign car with the possibility of installing an automatic box, sin does not take advantage.
The airbag for the passenger we advise.
Do not believe that, having spent on a pillow, lift the extra money. Yes, perhaps, in reality, they will forever stay above the glove compartment, but let it be so.
Passenger seat belt with pretensioner we advise.
See the point about the pillow for the passenger.
Fastening for children's seats ISOFIX we advise.
If you plan to drive with a small child, it is worth thinking about the attachment for an extra chair immediately so that it is not to suffer with the installation.
Anti-lock ABS system we advise.
Currently, the car without an anti-lock system can be considered morally obsolete.
EBD brake force distribution system we recommend.
A pair with ABS is a very necessary option.
Assistance system for emergency braking Nissan Brake Assist advise.
All that is associated with safety, and even more active, can not advise.
Anti-Hijack system at discretion.
If you live there, where the crime is not, and the trips will be performed in prosperous places, then this system is actually useless.
Air conditioner we recommend.
Civilization benefits are available in this car!
Heated seats at discretion.
Love lying on the stove take!
Central headrest in the backseat at discretion.
If there are three passengers from behind, the head restraint is most likely not useful. Usually in the machines of this class it turns out to be in the neck area even in the raised state.
Audio system: radio and CD player (2DIN) at discretion.
Can't you spend minutes without your favorite pop group? Order immediately.
Four speakers at discretion.
It will be an unusual solution in the event of the acquisition of the radio and voltage columns.
Antenna on the rear window at discretion.
In the musical package antenna as a gift.
Rear power windows at discretion.
Actually, in the budget car it is a luxury.

Central armrest in the backseat with cup holders at discretion.
 
Sitting in the trunk in the back of the rear seat at the discretion.
 
Electric drive mirrors at discretion.
 
Heated mirrors at discretion.
 
Fog lights at discretion.
It is a pity that you can only install the fog cattle in the most expensive version.
15-inch alloy wheels on the discretion.
On beautiful wheels, the car looks prettier and more interesting, but, in the case of whene, you can install them later, and buy a car, which I liked, that is, Nissan Almera.
