As one of the popular joint venture car companies in China, Dongfeng Nissan has always had a relatively "moist" life in China, and many of its models have achieved ideal sales results. However, in recent years, with the advent of the wave of electrification and the rise of independent car companies, many joint venture car companies, including Dongfeng Nissan, have not had a good time. For example, Tian Lai not only launched a commemorative black gold version, but also officially launched a preferential policy for trade-in, consumers can enjoy a discount of up to 70,000 yuan, and the terminal discounts of dealers in different regions will also have certain differences, so you can consult local dealers.
Over the years, everyone has been very familiar with the appearance design of the Ethereal, the most recognizable is probably the front of the car, simple and recognizable, although it does not create a sense of future technology that is currently popular, but it is actually good for a family scooter. As for the black and gold version, it is only adjusted for the detailed design. The most attractive thing is that a circle of gold trim is added to the front surround, with black car paint, which looks a kind of luxury. In addition, many elderly consumers feel that driving a joint venture car is more face-saving, especially in fourth- and fifth-tier cities.
Compared with the exterior, the personal impression of the interior design layout of the Ethereal is better, and consumers who do not like the pure black interior can consider the black and brown contrasting stitching interior, which is more homely. The center console is also inlaid with a long strip of patterned decorative panels, while the black and gold version is inlaid with a wood grain trim plate, and a circle of gold trim is added around it to embellish it, which virtually adds a sense of luxury. Except for the entry-level level, the rest of the models are equipped with a 12.3-inch central control screen and the latest car machine system built-in, which is not rich in functions, but there is no pressure to cope with daily car use.
Only the middle and high-end models are equipped with 360-degree panoramic images, and many car owners say that the response sensitivity of the car machine system is average, and it is indeed a little tiring to use. In addition, the display effect of reversing image and 360-degree panoramic image is really not powerful, after all, when has this been, or such quality is really unacceptable. However, this is also a common problem faced by many joint venture models, and the gap between them and independent models is indeed relatively large.
Considering the practicality problem, the car continues to retain a lot of physical buttons and physical knobs, and the actual control experience is not a big problem. As we all know, the "big sofa" is also a major advantage of Nissan, and this is naturally the case with nature, so many family users pay for the comfort of the ride. The seat fits snugly against the body and can effectively filter out the bumps and vibrations of the road. Of course, the rear space is not so spacious and rich, and many users are satisfied with its ride comfort.
The power part, Tian Lai provides a total of two sets of power systems, respectively equipped with 2.0L engine and 2.0T engine, the maximum horsepower of the 2.0L model is 156Ps, the power output is average but good to take into account the fuel economy, just add 92 gasoline. The actual handling experience is inclined to be calm and comfortable, unlike the current popular new energy models, which have very strong acceleration, low learning costs, and fast start-up. Therefore, it is a very good choice for many family users, and it is exaggerated to say that it is "one car for three generations", and it faces a wide audience. Consumers who have higher requirements for power control can consider the 2.0T version, and consumers who are ready to start it are best to go to the local dealer for a test drive, after all, it is not good to know after experiencing it in person, and if possible, you can test drive the 2.0L and 2.0T models at the same time.
Although there are many minor problems with Ethereal, it is harmless overall, otherwise it would not be possible for so many people to be willing to pay for it. However, discerning people know that in recent years, the influence and sales performance of Tian Lai are obviously not as good as before. Although the brand influence and quality are there, the performance in terms of design and configuration can no longer well meet the needs of contemporary consumers, especially for young people, so the future of Tian Lai needs to optimize its own product strength in an all-round way, so as to continue to maintain that brilliant achievement.
