Nissan Almera facelift introduced in Thailand for 2019
KUALA LUMPUR: Nissan has brought a new facelift for its Almera subcompact sedan in the Thai market. This has been done to keep the car more relevant to the modern day sedans like the Honda City and the Toyota Vios. The revisions were made mostly on the interior and slightly on the exterior too.
The cabin of the facelifted Nissan Almera has been given a good revision and the first thing you will notice is the flat-bottom steering wheel. The touchscreen infotainment system on the dashboard is bigger now and there are some paddings and trimmings on the door panel. The cabin wears a completely black color tone.
On the exterior side, things are mostly similar to the one already on sale. The new kit addition is known as the Sportech and gets a unique looking bumper up front. There are air intakes at the sides along with DRLs. The kit also adds certain other bits like a skirting for each of the sides, a rear spoiler, and a new bumper. It now rides on beautifully crafted machine-finished alloy wheels.
On the mechanical side, the settings are still the same. There is the same 1.2-litre engine that churns out 79 PS of power and 106 Nm of torque. The power is sent down to the wheels via a CVT gearbox. However, here in Malaysia, the Almera sedan is powered by a bigger 1.5-litre engine that produces 102 PS of power 139 Nm of torque. A four-speed automatic transmission sends the power to the wheels.
Also, the same facelifted kit might not make it to the Malaysian shores as the car already received the Black Series treatment recently (in November). The prices of the Black Series here starts from RM 69,800 and goes up to RM 79,800 (OTR without insurance). These figures are exactly the same as the standard variants without the black additions.
