Nissan Stagea M35 was launched in 2001 and was intended exclusively for the Japanese market. This is a kind of Nissan response to the Audi Allroad - an ingenious German development that became the progenitor of a new subclass of passenger cars that combine the advantages of a station wagon, a powerful engine and all-wheel drive.
Increased clearance brings the performance of this car closer to crossovers. Externally, the car is somewhat unusual: there are no pointed shapes familiar to Nissan, a large length (4.8 meters), 18-inch wheels, large front lights in the form of a parallelogram, a virtually vertical rear end, a scratch-protecting plastic skirt around the entire bottom of the car and 15- centimeter clearance. In general, the car is somewhat similar to the same Nissan, but with the 3R31 Skyline model, and the overall platform is close to the Infiniti FX. To lighten the car, aluminum and plastic parts were used in the body elements, which allowed the Nissan Stagea to gain a considerable weight of 1680 kilograms.
The interior of this car is made in a sporty style, including leather upholstery,specific design of the steering wheel and gearbox, as well as characteristic ergonomics. Light wood inserts are extremely non-vulgar and harmonize perfectly with the skin of a delicate peach color.
The optional package is wide enough for a 10-year-old car: a multimedia system, airbags, power windows, a powerful audio system, a rear-view camera and other accessories. The ergonomics of the car is close to ideal. Seats and steering wheel can be adjusted according to the type of driver. The trunk volume is 500 liters, so you can confidently go on a long family trip on our Nissan. In general, everything was done at a fairly high "Japanese" level.
What is under the hood of our hero? And there, the Nissan Stagea 2, a 5-liter turbocharged engine capable of developing power up to 280 horsepower. The peak speed of the car is 230 km/h. The motor can be aggregated with a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. A big drawback of the car can be considered high fuel consumption, which in the urban cycle is close to 20 liters of the 95th.
On the road, the car feels confident, which allows you to develop good engine speed. The Nissan Stagea has a smooth ride and stability, made possible by shock absorbers equipped with a device that cuts off low-amplitude vibrations. The car also received an improvement in the Atesa E-TS all-wheel drive system with the so-called snow synchronizer. itallows the car to more confidently stay on slippery roads.
Let's move on to the summary. The disadvantages of Nissan Stageia are high fuel consumption, high price of spare parts and rather weak brakes. Pros: fairly modern design, comfortable, roomy and slightly luxurious interior, a good combination of handling and a high level of comfort, a powerful engine and four-wheel drive. That's all - and about the Nissan Stagea M35. This model was produced until 2007, having fairly good sales. Now in the secondary market it can be purchased for 12 - 15 thousand dollars, although with a fairly high mileage. However, we all know the Japanese who create cars that can overcome even the millionth mileage mark. It is worth noting that some modifications of the car were released, including the Nissan Stagea GTR, AR-X, RX and others, with slightly different engine versions and appearance.
