First spy shots of the 2019 Nissan Grand Livina have
just surfaced online, and they reveal its exterior almost entirely. As
expected, it’s simply a Mitsubishi Xpander with a unique front. Compared to the Mitsubishi
Xpander, the 2019 Nissan Grand Livina has a streamlined design. The grille,
lights and bumper, all have a distinctive design, although the main lights in
the mid-section and the muscular contour around them aren’t all that different.
Like every new Nissan in the market today, it flaunts a V-motion grille, one
which particularly 2019 Nissan Altima fans or drivers wouldn’t find unusually
huge.
The 2019 Nissan Grand Livina has dimensions very
similar to that of the Mitsubishi Xpander (4,475 x 1,750 x 1,700). It may
employ the same engine as the donor - the 4G91 1.5-litre petrol. This naturally
aspirated four-cylinder develops 105 PS at 6,000 rpm and 141 Nm of torque at
4,000 rpm. It sends drive to the front wheels via a standard 5-speed manual
transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission.
A possibility that cannot be ruled out is Nissan
offering the Juke’s HR15DE 1.5-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol
engine with the XTRONIC CVT. In the sub-compact SUV, it is tuned to produce 114
PS at 6,000 rpm and 150 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The originality may extend
to the infotainment system offered as well.
The 2019 Nissan Grand Livina’s launch will be in
Indonesia first, at the February 19. Dealership personnel say that
customers should get to see the MPV in person starting on the 25th. Deliveries
will commence next month.
