Nissan has officially taken the wraps off its Teana sedan at the 2008 Beijing Motor Show. The Teana was previewed by the Intima concept at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show and is slated to hit the Chinese market later this summer.
Despite being a Chinese model, the Teana will share a similar platform with Nissans in other parts of the world — such as the Altima, Maxima and Murano.
Stylistically, the Teana shares many of the same design elements with the Intima concept car — such as the overall design of the front fascia and the kick-up at the bottom of the C-pillar — but ditches the show car’s suicide doors and LED headlights.
The front-wheel drive sedan will be powered by a 2.0L four-cylinder, a 2.5L four-cylinder and Nissan ’s famed 3.5L V6, all mated to a CVT transmission. The Teana will also come in two trim-levels, base and up-level XV.
