New Nissan-Almera: owner feedback, bundle, photo

Nissan Almera is a golf-class car, characterized by high reliability, unpretentiousness, availability and a large number of advantages. He replaced the outdated Nissan Sunny. For the first time the car was presented at the Frankfurt Automobile Exhibition in 1995. It was offered in three- and five-door variants in a hatchback-type body, and a year later a four-door sedan was produced.

The European division of Nissan was working on the design of the car. The car had a modest, attractive appearance with a raised middle part of the body, an impressive rear rack and a high roof.

To date, the company has released three generations of the model with a lot of modifications and additions.

Russian residence permit

The new "Nissan Almera" of the third generation, known in Europe under the name Nissan Pulsar, was officially presented in 2012. The model survived the second life in the form of a Korean sedan Classic, and now appeared before the domestic consumer as a budget sedan with a Russian residence permit, as its assembly is organized at the Togliatti plant. The Japanese concern Nissan for the first time developed the car focused on the Russian market, on some versions, and at all exclusively for it.

The novelty is built on the platform of Renault Logan, which is very popular in Russia. From it, the model also received the engine, transmission and other technological solutions. The designers did not invent anything new and literally "copied" the exterior from the Teana model.

Low cost emphasizes almost all the details, and the chrome radiator grille further strengthens the budget of the car. The most noticeable change that the Nissan Almera got was a new body.

In comparison with the Logan model, the novelty has increased in size. Now its total length is 4 656 mm, the width is 1 695 mm, the height is 1,522 mm, the wheelbase is 2,700 mm. 160 mm - the ground clearance, which received a new Nissan-Almera. Reviews of car enthusiasts say that on serious off-road it may not be enough, but on country roads problems will not arise.

Salon

The car has a classic five-seater saloon. Free space for the driver and passengers is provided with a margin, while the decoration and arrangement of the controls cause questions. The quality of the materials used is average, and the front panel is simple, devoid of any frills.

The second passenger row is designed for three people. Initially, it did not add up, which did not allow increasing the capacity of the luggage compartment.

But it was corrected in the third generation of the car, when a new Nissan-Almera appeared. The owners' comments indicate that the folding backrest in the ratio of 60/40 is very handy for a similar car. But this option is provided for all but the basic configuration.

Specifications

The first time the car will be produced with a single power unit, but in the future the range of engines is planned to expand. In this case, the manufacturer does not exclude the possibility of the appearance of a diesel engine. The car is equipped with a motor capable of producing 102 liters. from. Power at 5,750 rpm, and a working volume of 1.6 liters. Thrust is transmitted to the front axle, all-wheel drive variations are not provided.

The new Nissan Almera is not inferior to competitors in its segment in terms of dynamics and speed: the maximum developed speed is 185 km / h, the acceleration to 100 km / h takes 10.9 seconds. According to the "passport" data, the average fuel consumption of this engine in the mixed cycle is 8.5 liters. At the same time, it meets Euro-4 environmental standards. The novelty is available with two variations of the transmission: a 5-speed manual transmission and a 4-speed automatic transmission. Specialists recommend using the last gearbox.

Suspension

Taking into account the specifics of Russian roads, the chassis of the car was further strengthened by stronger suspension elements designed for increased loads. Front independent stand MacPherson, rear - torsion beam. The suspension settings of the novelty are close to rally cars, which is explained by the same low quality and roughness on the roads.

Among the minuses of the novelty, you can confidently note the narrow wheels (185/65), but a good suspension compensates for this deficiency, and unevenness is almost not felt in the cabin. The steering is not very sharp, but it's enough for a comfortable and confident ride. Disc brakes installed in the front, and drums from behind - the braking system that the new Nissan Almera received.

Photo of the car will make it clear even to the common man that the model is distinguished by uncommon off-road qualities. First of all, this is confirmed by high ground clearance. When fully loaded, it "sags" only up to 145 mm, so you should not worry about getting stuck on a country road. And if you also recall the additional protection of the chassis, then all doubts are completely lost. The novelty was tested in different road conditions, including on the track for motocross, where he showed himself remarkably.
