Nissan Teana production starts (CN)

Today at the Xianfang manufacturing plant of Dongfeng Motor, Nissan's Chinese partner, the first 2009 Nissan Teana rolled of the production line. The new Teana is based on Nissan's new D-Platform and sees China as its main market, since Chinese customers took half of global sales of the first generation.


The second generation of the Teana has been designed with Chinese needs held in high regard, resulting in a quiet, comfortable and relaxed ambiance for both the driver and the passengers.

The new Teana is powered by Nissan's 2.5 litre V6 and 3.5 litre V6 engines, that is mated to a Xtronic CVT transmission with Adaptive Shift Control (ASC). The entry level model uses a 2.0 litre 4-cylinder engine.

The Nissan Teana will go on sale in China later this month priced between RMB 190,800 and RMB 332,800. Nissan hopes to sell more than 8,000 units a month and in the long run twice as many as the first generation Teana which reached a total of 166,000 sales.
