Any new Nissan models?

[sagaraemiru]

i've seen a white 2nd generation x-trail with expat plates in españa ave. earlier today...

;)Hi there, newbie here.
Merong lalabas na all new X-trail pero gasoline pa rin and a new sub-compact car....pero di sentra. panay asian models

Did the X-Trail sir maranello and miss rose look anything like this?





And another thing: If it's not the Sentra, is it, by any chance, the Tiida/Versa (possible Vios fighter)?



Or is it the Bluebird Sylphy (closest model to the Sentra we have)?



If that is the case, Yulon FINALLY thought of revitalizing Nissan's lineup here.

Well, there's a new Infiniti M debuted at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance today.

IMHO Sagaraemiru,

Hatchback po ang lalabas, kung di na naman mag-iiba ang isipan ng management. Kakainis kasi ang reason for not selling the Diesel X-trail ay dahil poor quality raw ang diesel natin at maaapektuhan ang performanace ng engines nila, e bakit ang UMC naglabas ng Navarra. Ganda sana ng sales ng X-trail diesel,  balik sa drivers' side and panel at diesel pa
Kelan pa kaya magigising ang Yulon.
I've tried Toyota, Nissan and Honda, at maganda naman ang performance ng Nissan, papaano babalik ang bilib ang masa sa nissan eh kung di sila sumasabay sa model changes ng Toyota at Honda, just my thoughts.

Ah, ok. Alam ko na may two versions ang Nissan Tiida, much like the Toyota Vios/Yaris and Chevrolet Aveo. Heto yung hatchback, right?



Oh, and one more thing: Mayroong Nissan X-Trail diesel na rin sa Japan (Nissan X-Trail 20GT), launched last year only. (of all places possible pa kamo, since mas galit sila sa diesel kaysa sa mga Amerikano.) The diesel engine used is sourced from Renault (hence having a different engine code: the M9R. It is a CRDi 2.0L inline-4 with VGT and intercooler)

True enough, the diesel we have here is of poor quality (since ULSD is way too expensive for the Philippines, and biodiesel isn't standardized yet). But it's probably the cost of production and the stupid tax brackets this country have (for imported CBU cars) that hinders Nissan (or generally any car manufacturer out there) from bringing diesel cars. And also to our preferences here since diesel-powered passenger cars are relatively unheard of here (save for the Hyundai Accent and the Ford Focus TDCi).

And like the Americans, Japanese and most of all the Taiwanese, we generally perceive diesel as "slow, dirty and crude". Blame it on all the jeeps, trucks and buses out there. 

And another thing, what actually hinders Nissan's popularity is probably the most powerful way of advertisement of all in the Philippines: word of mouth. Just add a few people who would say that Nissan is rubbish and unreliable, spread it out on the masses, and presto. The very reason why Toyota is popular here.

Wow Tiida at new gen X-Trail,i really wish the Slyphy and Tiida sedan would be here..

The Nissan Cube and new gen Micra will be available likely in 2012 and those cars will be sourced from Thailand.

yes!! that x-trail but in white color and with blue expat plates...


for me the USDM sentra looks better than the bluebird sylphy...

i like the styling of the versa/tiida

Where's the Nissan Quest???

[Bankai™]

for me, the Nissan Sentra is way way waaaayyy behind the race.. 



..a new model! ASAP!

[sagaraemiru]

^Actually, it's not just the Sentra. Basically the entire Philippine lineup (save for the Frontier Navara and the Grand Livina)

They seem to settle for second best, to say it softly. 

[maranello_5775]

any news about the nissan murano and teana?

[Lee17]

The nissan sentra's looks are just classic for me. But thats what someone says when something looks pretty old already. A few months back I saw an ad from Mercury Drug , a promotion of some sort. THe prize is a brand new sentra. and the sentra on the pics are those of the USDM's. I got pretty excited so to speak. I wonder what happened to that?

What I want Nissan to Join is the supermini market. I love how the micra looks. yummy.

By that, you mean the second-generation Nissan March, which are obviously ex-RHD cars? (judging from the wipers' sweep direction and the pillar antenna's location) It's the basis for the odd-looking Nissan Verita.

Considering the popularity of the Toyota Yaris and the Suzuki Swift, Nissan should also consider bringing it here.
