Tuda is one of the few off-road SUVs introduced by Nissan to the domestic market in the form of a joint venture; although it has superior off-road performance, and the price of 15-20 is also reasonable; however, Tuda was only available in my country from January to October this year. The sales level of about 1,000 units sold also indicates that its presence is indeed not strong. What's more, when people refer to Nissan's off-road SUV, they can only think of Paladin and Passo; so that the Tuda, which is called "Small Passo", almost never mentions it.
Of course, despite the bottleneck in the domestic market, Nissan clearly has no plans to give up Tuda. No, not long ago, Nissan took the lead in the Arab region to release the new X-Terra (that is, the domestic market Tuda). So, how much has the "Small Patrol" improved this time? Let's take a look.
Although the new Tuda is only a mid-term facelift, its appearance is no less than a replacement. The front face of the new car uses a larger and more regular multi-spoke grille; combined with a new style of irregular headlights and a fog light area embedded with a vertical LED light source, it is not only given a stronger The atmospheric texture and fashion composition of the brand also made it further solidify the name of "Small Patrol". The side of
, the slender profile, and the powerful front and rear wheel eyebrows and side skirt structures are almost the same as the old models. Of course, the body is not adjusted, and it is also in line with the settings of the general mid-term facelift. Moreover, the rear of the new car also has more obvious changes; the huge taillights composed of bidirectionally extending LED light strips are also connected by arched chrome plating, making it both exquisite texture and stylish personality elements. Then the design of a large area of silver protective board was added to the enclosure, which further enhanced its wildness. The interior part of
is also amazing; the new car adopts a structure with smoother lines, and adds more soft materials; it has a more high-end texture. In addition, the combination of the color LCD instrument and the embedded central control screen allows it to show more fashion and individual atmosphere. For the space part of
, although the editor has not yet obtained its accurate size parameters; according to overseas media reports, the size of the new car will be further optimized on the basis of the old model.
As for the power part, the new car has not made any adjustments; it will still be equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine and match the same 7AT gearbox of Patrol. In addition, off-road equipment such as time-sharing four-wheel drive system, rear axle differential lock, and steep descent will also appear on the new body. Unfortunately, the rear brakes of the new Tuda will still use drum brakes. On the whole, although the setting of the rear drum brake is indeed disappointing; after all, its appearance and interior design have been significantly improved; and the off-road performance is as good as usual. So dear friends, do you think that the new model of "Small Touro" will win the recognition of domestic consumers?
