Test drive Nissan Primera sedan since 2002 sedan

Nissan Primera car overview

General
And yet, the car is first of all, the form. So I thought when I saw the Nissan Primera of the new model. This does not mean that there would be a form, but everything else does not matter. This means that if the form is good, then I want to travel. In fact, Nissan did not have a long time that the running -in became so pleasant.
Primera is produced in the bodies of the sedan and the station wagon, but I like the sedan more. It is impressive by sports and a high sense of quality, and besides, it allows you to feel the future. Those who love a simple design can turn away from it, but those who use the machine as a tool of self -affirmation, Primera will undoubtedly be very pleasant. I read that at first the Nissan ratio of sedans and station wagons was 6: 4, but if you look in reality, the real ratio was 5: 5 to receive orders.
 
Exterior and interior
The interior is selected under the motto driving through industrial technologies, and its main theme was the combined control panel located horizontally. The keyboard of a personal computer is used vertically because it is so easier based on the structure of the human body. If so, then the machine control system would also be better to make vertical. And the design, which appeared from such an idea, actually has outstanding handling. The buttons combine the air conditioning, audio system and navigation system, but thanks to the perfect management program, this does not cause confusion at all. On the contrary, how much the number of buttons has decreased, the size of each of them increased so much, and they correctly work even when clicking blindly. I would like the dealers to come and try it all.
The dimensions of the body compared to the previous generation increased significantly (4565 x 1760 x 1480 mm), and, of course, the space of the salon became very spacious. Particularly mentioned free areas around the elbows on the front seats, and along with the shape of the doors, cut inward, this completely eliminates the feeling of crowding for people with a very dense physique. Here you can clearly feel the spaciousness characteristic of the size of the size No. 3. On the other hand, the upper edge of the door is issued inside the cabin, so you can feel the proper degree of compactness. Namely, in the Primera salon, despite its real latitude, it was possible to demonstrate a sense of compactness, which is characteristic of sports sedans, and it is simply great.
 
Performance
As for the gamut of the engines, they refused from the volume of 1.8 liters and switched to the volume of a higher class 2.0 liters and 2.5 liters (both in-line 4-cylinder). This is a completely understandable measure, if we take into account a significant improvement in quality in internal and external equipment. I think it would not be surprising if even a V-shaped 6-cylinder engine were installed.
I tried to drive on a 2.5-liter model of the sedan. It is equipped with a synchronized transmission with a 6-speed manual mode, which gives a very good result. The engine gives out a good torque at low and medium speed, and the strength of the shocks is sufficient even at high speeds. Smoothness and noiselessness are also excellent. In accordance with the torque, even when moving in the range D almost no discomfort inherent in a synchronized transmission (when, when pressed on the pedal, only the speed increases, and the speed follows). During sports movement, the Range L (with constant maintenance of maximum revolutions) is the fastest, but if you are looking for pleasure, it will be best 6-speed manual mode.
Superfantous reaction when switching speeds can easily recall the automatic transmission with a hydrotransformer, equipped with a well -made manual mode. It is extremely pleasant to a feeling of acceleration, which is generated by a gear ratio of gears with a small ratio of gears characteristic of a 6-speed mode. The work of pedals is filled with a sensation of sports characteristic of Primera. Due to the optional 17-inch tires, the landing according to the sensations is quite rigid, but the riding and handling at maximum speeds are excellent. Like the first -generation Primera, the new model can also win the reputation of the most controlled car among front -wheel drive sports sedans.
