All new Nissan flagship - the Teana - launched
23 Oct 2013|16,193 views
The sixth generation Teana, with a history beginning under the name of Cefiro back in 1989, has reinvented itself with exciting innovations such as NASA inspired Zero Gravity Seats and the latest Xtronic CVT transmission. Paired with its new ZF Sachs Multi-link suspension and Active Understeer Control, the sedan promises a refreshing and dynamic driving performance with comfort and luxury.
On its exterior, the Nissan Teana has been redesigned for a more modern look - its larger dimensions establish a better presence while seamless and deep characterful lines cut across its body. Adding on to its updated look are bold and distinctive projector headlamps and large LED tail lamps.
The new Nissan Teana's interior feels more premium, with a choice between ivory leather with maple wood finishing and charcoal leather with graphite black finishing.
With the desire to help reduce driving fatigue experienced during long commutes, Nissan studied seating and posture research from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Utilising a new articulated seat shape with continuous support from the pelvis to the chest and distribution of localised deformation characteristics, the Teana's 'zero-gravity' seats help to reduce muscular and spinal loads as well as improve blood flow. This way, fatigue is reduced over long periods behind the wheel.
The new Teana is powered by three engine choices: 2.0-litre, 2.5-litre or 3.5-litre (available in 2014). Paired with Nissan's next generation Xtronic CVT, drivers can expect an exhilarating and seamless drive that is equivalent to an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The new CVT features expanded gear ratio coverage, with a lower first gear and higher ratio overdrive. New control logic and expanded gear ratio coverage help reduce noise and fuel consumption while improving drivability and responsiveness.
For example, during cruising, the expanded ratio lowers engine revs at highway speed for a quieter ride and improved noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) versus an automatic transmission. When starting from a full stop, the continuously varying ratios (compared to step automatic transmissions) results in seamless acceleration. And when accelerating while passing, acceleration is smooth and confidence-inspiring due to no stepped gear changes and minimised shift shock.
Along with greatly enhanced driving feel, the result of the new CVT redesign is an improvement in fuel economy from the previous generations.
Contributing to the exceptional driving comfort is Teana's new multi-link rear suspension that utilises a special shock absorber design by ZF SACHS and incorporating Active Understeer Control. The shocks use state-of-the-art valve technology to help control wheel hop and harshness, resulting in reduced transmission of vibrations to the cabin for enhanced body control and response, and a smooth, quiet ride.
