In many cases, the facelift is more difficult to design than the new car, not only to inherit the style of the original car, but also to conform to the current trend changes.
The most obvious change in the new Teana is the front end, the front face has been redesigned, the new V-Motion design is more open and atmospheric, and at the same time, the horizontal visual width is strengthened, making the front shape more flat and close to the ground.
The new front face of the new Teana emphasises horizontal lines, with a large number of protruding chrome trim strips, and the lines on the center grille and sides are corresponding, visually connected, making the front end look wider.
The painted black vertical trim strips on both sides visually play the role of a boundary, allowing people to feel the visual width of the front of the car, and if they are removed, there will be no such strong visual stretching effect.
The lines on the engine cover are more important feature lines, which will be determined at the early stage of design, which can not only improve the aesthetics, but also improve the strength of the engine cover. Nowadays, the wheels of new cars are getting bigger and bigger, and from a design point of view, larger wheels will make the body more dynamic and visually impactful.
The new Teana has been replaced with a new dense multi-spoke wheel, which actually echoes the new front face design, both of which are relatively complex designs, and the overall sense is more unified and coordinated.
Regarding the proportion of side windows and doors, generally the larger the proportion of the door, the more stable and powerful the body, but in fact, the proportion of the window is related to the visual angle of the passenger in the car, there are more laws and regulations, and the design of the new Ethereal ensures that the driver and passengers have a wide enough vision.
The waistline design of the body does not adopt a simple and solemn straight single waistline, but adopts a forward-sloping double waistline design, which can have a visual effect of swooping forward.
Nowadays, mid-size cars are popular for the C-pillar design with a large inclination, and the design of the natural sound also makes the smooth side roof line more conducive to aerodynamic performance.
The upturned ducktail design at the rear is also a common practice in new cars, but in fact, this design is more for aerodynamic considerations, which can make the airflow detach from the body faster, reduce the turbulence at the tail, and thus improve the aerodynamic performance.
The outer contours of the taillights have not changed, and the internal light clusters have been replaced with more stylish LED strips and 56 individual LED light sources, making the new model more expensive and more aesthetically pleasing.
The car has also been designed in many details that are conducive to aerodynamic performance, such as the ridge line of the rear surround, the sharp corners and ridges on the taillights, etc., and many small details are designed to make the airflow more quickly separated from the body.
The lower envelope of the new Teana adds two diamond-shaped exhaust outlets, which not only emphasize performance and sporty style, but also have a sharp and angular design that is consistent with the style of the vehicle.
The changes in the interior are mainly concentrated in two places, the first is to replace the 12.3-inch central control screen, and the shape has become elongated, making the lines straighter, which also has the effect of stretching the horizontal visual width, making the interior space a little wider.
NISSANConnect 2.0Plus has been upgraded with 14 new functions, with a 12.3-inch large central control screen, which is more convenient in terms of voice control, and at the same time increases the functions of on-board KTV, listening to books and shopping malls, and the top model also adds AR real-world navigation function.
At the same time, it is equipped with 64-color intelligent interactive atmosphere lights, which can provide 4 interactive modes and 5 scene modes, which can change color according to the situation of music or multimedia system, and also provide dynamic elements for the atmosphere in the car.
The Multi-Layer ergonomic seat, known as Nissan's large sofa, retains the "zero gravity" comfort while replacing it with a new three-dimensional quilted perforation pattern, as well as side embroidery and a more premium brown interior.
Another detail is that the new key is no longer the original oval, but made more flat, the shape is no longer oval, but a rectangle with rounded corners, the shape will be a little more fashionable, and the function will basically not change.
