With a new and more fuel-efficient powertrain, a wider stance, a lower center of gravity, improved aerodynamics and a roomy, luxurious interior, the all-new Sylphy receives a standing ovation at the opening of 2019 Shanghai Motor Show.
The all-new Nissan Sylphy sporting a new look features the latest Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies which allows the driver to increased in connectivity, comfort and confidence.
At first look, the all-new Sylphy is characterized by its stance, which reflects the design concepts of “vigor” and “confidence.” Its signature Nissan features include the black grille with a three-dimensional V-motion design, bringing about a strong visual impact. The sides are defined by lean, striking proportions that create a sense of motion even when the car is stationary.
According to Nissan, the lower profile and streamlined exterior of the Sylphy contributes to the decreased wind resistance, drag coefficient of just 0.26, similar to Nissan GT-R. Of course, the exterior design cues hint at a number of key performance upgrades.
In terms of performance, the all-new Sylphy is powered by the new Nissan HR16DE Gen3 intelligent drive engine with Xtronic transmission. This new powertrain boost engine stability and fuel efficiency and provide a smooth driving experience. Steering, suspension and body rigidity have also been enhanced to improve handling and deliver a more solid driving feel.
Interior features that have been designed for increased comfort and convenience also include the three-outlet air conditioning system. Controlled by a single integrated switch, it supplies air separately to the left and right front seats and to the back seats. An 8-inch center color display and the 7-inch, high-definition thin-film transistor monitor, which shows drive information and readings from the car’s sensors, are arranged inside the meter assembly for a smart, highly functional design.
Among Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies in the all-new Sylphy are seamless smartphone connectivity and intelligent voice command. The Integrated Dynamic Control Module uses targeted brake applications after the vehicle encounters a bump or undulation to immediately improve the level of the body, enhancing ride quality. Additional technologies to assist the driver include Intelligent Trace Control, Intelligent Ride Control and Emergency Brake for Pedal Misapplication.
Safety features includes Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Cross Traffic Alert and Intelligent Driving Alert, which support the driver in anticipating and avoiding hazardous situations.
