Dongfeng Nissan Tianlai, one of the three musketeers of the Japanese B-class car, sold 163,741 vehicles last year, creating the best annual sales since the domestic production of Tianlai in 2004, while the sales of Camry and Accord last year were around 210,000 units Compared with the comparison, there is still a big gap between Tianlai and the two big brothers. Recently, a set of photos of the mid-term remodeled model suspected to be the seventh generation of Tianlai were recently exposed on the Internet, and it was rumored that it would be launched in November this year. You should know that the listing of the seventh generation of Tianlai has been in December 2018, 3 and a half years ago, and it is time for the mid-term reform. As the saying goes, three years a small change, seven years a big change, after the mid-term change of the natural sound in the end what has changed? Can you still keep up with the pace of the two big brothers? Let's find out!
Appearance:
There is not much information about the front face that can be known in the spy photo picture, the front face basically continues the family design style of the current tianlai, the details have been modified, the front face of the large area of blackened style of the grille is consistent with the current model, and the V-shaped chrome strip will become narrower and thinner and move down parallel to the bumper, bringing a stronger sporty atmosphere. The four raised four muscle lines on the hood are still used in the mid-term remodeled model, and the front fog lights have been adjusted to adopt an integrated light set.
The mid-term revamp used a new multi-width wheel, the black roof line and suspension roof of the D-pillar were also retained, and the waist line was extended from the front door to the rear of the car, and the side visual effect was prominent. It is said that the mid-term redesign will lengthen the body size, (the current model body size is 4901mm long / 1850mm wide / 1450mm high, wheelbase is expected to be 2825mm) wheelbase is expected to surpass the veteran competitors Toyota Camry and Honda Accord. The Japanese large sofa that has always been handed down by Tianlai is loved by the majority of consumers, and the seat cushion is comfortable and the cushion is soft. There is no doubt that the chair is the biggest selling point of Tianlai. After the wheelbase is extended, it is bound to improve the performance of the rear legroom, and the rear passengers will form a huge advantage over camry and accord in terms of comfort and space!
The biggest change in the rear of the car is that the taillights have finally been replaced by LED light groups from the previous halogen bulbs, which at first glance thought to be the rear tail lights of the BMW X3. Just thinner and longer. The lampshade is blackened to further enhance the display after lighting. As a joint venture brand B-class car, 2022 is still using halogen lighting is really incomprehensible! Domestic A-class cars can already play with the headlights.
Interior:
Nowadays, Japanese brands adopt a straight and simple interior design style. For example, Mazda Artez, Honda Civic. It can also highlight the sense of luxury. The mid-term revamp of the tianlai is no exception There are more changes in the interior, reducing: cumbersome lines, flat design of air conditioning outlets, increases: wood grain trim decoration, mobile phone wireless charging,
The central control screen adopts a new suspension type, which should be more than 12 inches, which will be much larger than the current eight-inch central control screen, and the bottom also has physical buttons, which is convenient for daily driving operations and is not easy to stain fingerprints. The disadvantage is that it lacks the aesthetics of the design, and it is a bit forced to plug in the meaning of the center console. The gear handle is also a mechanical gear handle, and does not use Nissan's new electronic gear handle. The cup holder was changed to rectangular and embellished with silver chrome strips. Xiaobian believes that the interior design of the mid-term revamp is very successful, it does not look greasy, increases the charging of mobile phones, and controls the screen size in the center. This highlight should be praised by the manufacturer! It is very practical and adds a lot of interior technology.
impetus:
There is no news of power at the moment, as a mid-term revamp, it is expected that the new car power system will continue the current model. It is expected to be equipped with two engines with the same engine, 2.0L four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, maximum horsepower Ps 156, peak torque of 197 Nm, and match the CVT stepless transmission. NEDC fuel consumption is 5.9L/100km.
2.0T four-cylinder engine, maximum horsepower Ps 243, peak torque 371 Nm, matching CVT induction gearbox (analog 8 gear) NEDC fuel consumption of 6.6L/100km.
summary:
This mid-term redesign should be listed in November this year, consumers expect e-Power hybrid model news officially did not disclose for the time being, the Japanese three musketeers, Camry Accord have hybrid models, and sales are quite a lot. A comparison with the natural sound can be too much of a loss! If the mid-term redesign of Tianlai can bring hybrid models, you are eligible to go to the ring and compete with the two big brothers! Don't let the big brother eat meat, you can only drink soup. Tianlai must also know in his heart that his sales volume is lower selling price and greater preferential margin. So yeah! Let's have a long snack! Look at the Audi in the Ashkenazi BBA, is it a little touching?
