Concept and design
edit
At Auto China 2014 in Beijing, Nissan had presented the first design for a new compact model called "Friend-ME". At the same show, Nissan had presented a concept design called Lannia.[1] At the Auto Shanghai 2015, Nissan showed a production model for the first time, whose design remained very close to the concept design. This show was honored as "Best New Model to Come".[2] Nissan has designed the Lannia to appeal to people between 20 and 30 years old.[3]
Production version
edit
Unveiled during the 2015 Shanghai Auto Show, the price tag of the production Nissan Lannia starts at CN¥105,900 (approximately US$16,419). The production version of the Nissan Lannia is produced by Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. (DFL), Nissan’s joint venture in China. The Nissan Lannia is powered by a 1.6-liter, 127 PS (93 kW) inline-four gasoline engine coupled with an Xtronic CVT Transmission. The Lannia also features high-performance suspension, EPS (Electric Power Steering), and VDC (Vehicle Dynamics Control) systems.[4]
Due to poor sales, the Nissan Lannia was discontinued in China in 2022 without a successor.
Equipment
editThe Lannia offers a safety package with parking space monitoring, Lane Keeping Assist, and Blind Spot Assist.[3]
