Japanese cars are very popular in Russia. There are several objective reasons for this. The "Japanese" are unpretentious in maintenance, they are relatively cheap compared to the "Germans", and most importantly, they do not break down as often as their European counterparts. That is why many motorists prefer to buy cars from the Land of the Rising Sun. We will consider one of these instances in our today's article. This is the 2014 Nissan Teana. Reviews, review and specifications - next.
Description
So, what kind of car is this? This is the second generation of Teana, which has been mass-produced since 2008. The car was first presented in April at the Beijing Motor Show. A month later, official sales started in Japan, as well as in Russia.
Design
The machine belongs to the D-class and is straightrival Camry. In terms of design, the Nissan Teana is more presentable than the Toyota. Up front, there's a huge chrome grille, big headlights stretching back, and chrome strips at the bottom. The car proves with all its appearance that the budget class is not its category at all.
Among the disadvantages is the metal's tendency to corrode. This is a disease of many Nissans. It is necessary to regularly monitor the metal and remove rust in time. This is especially true of large cities, where s alt is poured onto the roads.
Dimensions, clearance
The car has impressive dimensions. The length of the 2014 Nissan Teana sedan is 4.85 meters. Width - 1.8, height - 1.52 meters. At the same time, the car has a small clearance - reviews say. "Nissan-Teana" 2014 on standard cast wheels has a 15-centimeter ground clearance. Driving this car on unpaved roads will be risky. The car has a too long wheelbase, low ground clearance and large overhangs to make the driver feel confident in the pits and on the primer.
Salon
Let's move inside the Japanese sedan. The interior of "Teana" is impeccable - the reviews say. In this regard, Nissan has gone far from the Toyota Camry with a blue center console.
The interior can rightly be called luxurious. White steering wheel, leather seats with a lot of adjustments and heating, white door cards, a panel, as well as numerous wood grain inserts. The latter imitate the structure of wood as much as possible, which is a plus. Note that the trim levels include black leatherinterior, as well as velor. The review in the Nissan Teana 2014 is magnificent - there are no dead zones, and to make it convenient to park, there is a parking sensor. Due to the large dimensions of the body, there is enough space inside with a margin. Rear passengers will feel comfortable without resting their knees on the back of the front seats.
The trunk on the Teane is roomy. Its volume is 488 liters. The seats do not fold down, but have a ski hatch that can carry long loads.
Of the shortcomings, reviews note a weak stove. Warm air flows well only from the central deflectors. There is a weak stream on the legs and windshield.
"Nissan-Teana" 2014 - specifications
The range of power units consists exclusively of gasoline six-cylinder engines. There are only three of them. There is only one gearbox - a continuously variable variator. The base for "Teana" was a 2.5-liter unit with a capacity of 167 horsepower. With it, the car accelerates to hundreds in 9.8 seconds. The maximum speed is exactly 200. There is also a 182-horsepower engine with the same displacement, but with all-wheel drive. Up to 100 kilometers per hour, the car accelerates in 9.6 seconds. The maximum speed for this version is the same - 200 kilometers per hour.
A 3.5-liter engine is available in the maximum trim levels. It was adapted for the transport tax and now the ICE power is 249 horsepower. Acceleration to hundreds - 7.2 seconds. The maximum speed is 210 kilometers per hour.
Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting the variator. By default, this box is more demanding to maintain and gentler to operate than a conventional automatic. Do not overheat this transmission, as well as frequently perform dynamic acceleration from a standstill. It often happens that the box "buggy" on the go. This malfunction is "treated" by flashing the electronic transmission unit.
About consumption
As noted by the reviews, the 2014 Nissan Teana is a voracious car. Moreover, this characteristic is applicable to both the 2.5-liter and the flagship engine. In the city, a Japanese sedan can spend from 13 to 15 liters of gasoline. On the highway, the car consumes at least 8.5 in economy mode. Therefore, when buying "Teana" you should prepare in advance for its "appetites" - the reviews say.
Chassis
The front of the car has a classic suspension with MacPherson struts. Behind - multi-link. Brakes are fully disc. Already in the basic configuration there is an ABS system and brake force distribution, as well as an emergency brake booster. According to reviews, the 2014 Nissan Teana responds well to the pedal.
Steering - rack with electro-hydraulic booster. This mechanism is characterized by variable effort, that is, the steering force depends on the speed of movement. According to reviews, this is a very useful feature. On the track, the car stands like a glove, and when parking, the steering wheel can be turned with almost one finger.
As shown by the test drive, "Nissan Teana" 2014has a very soft and comfortable suspension. At the same time, it cannot be said that the sedan is clumsy. The car confidently enters the turns, which is good news. Also, reviews note the silence of the suspension. Inside there are no knocks and vibrations when passing irregularities. Some compare the TEAN to a ship in terms of suspension performance. The machine is well suited for both short and long distances.
