00:00Welcome to the video from the Auto Magazine Tuning Blog.
00:05This article was about the Nissan Serena of the 2023 model year,
00:09a family-friendly, 6th generation MPV that particularly impressed with its functionality and innovative hybrid technology.
00:18Even though MPVs were currently the most exciting body style on the market,
00:22Nissan remained true to its line and presented a vehicle with the Serena that wanted to be one thing above all else, practical.
00:30In their range since the 1990s, the Serena 2023 once again featured the boxy shape typical of MPV,
00:38which deliberately focused on maximum interior space.
00:43But this moving brick was anything but outdated.
00:47The front end was modernized with elegantly integrated LED headlights that blended harmoniously into the large radiator grille.
00:54A special highlight, Nissan claimed to have installed the widest windshield in the segment at the time
01:02in order to significantly improve visibility to the outside.
01:07In addition, there were electric sliding doors on the passenger side and fully LED-based lighting,
01:12which made the Serena clearly recognizable in the dark.
01:17Nissan made some significant improvements to the interior.
01:20Drivers benefited from around 12 centimeters more legroom behind the steering wheel.
01:27The redesigned gear lever also contributed to the tidy appearance.
01:33Families with children in particular appreciated the eight water-repellent seats,
01:37which were easy to clean even after accident-prone ice cream escapades.
01:41There were also numerous USB ports so that all passengers could charge their mobile devices while driving.
01:50Speaking of comfort, each row of seats had its own climate control as well as a pre-cooling function,
01:55which ensured a pleasant temperature, especially on hot days.
01:59Depending on the equipment variant, the Serena was either around 4.7 meters or 4.8 meters long,
02:051.7 meters or almost 1.8 meters wide and 1.9 meters high.
02:10The wheelbase was 3.1 meters.
02:13This made the Serena one of the most spacious vehicles in its class.
02:18The weight was around 2.1 to 2.2 tons, depending on the equipment.
02:23No lightweight, but no Colossus either, especially considering the spacious cabin.
02:28There were two drivetrain options available.
02:32The classic version used a 2.0-liter gasoline engine without a turbocharger,
02:37which delivered around 150 horsepower and approximately 200 newton meters of torque.
02:43This engine was available with both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive
02:46and was combined with a continuously variable automatic transmission.
02:51Nissan also offered an e-power hybrid version.
02:54This featured a new, particularly quiet 1.4-liter gasoline engine with 98 horsepower
03:00and 123 newton meters of torque, which was used exclusively to generate electricity.
03:07The actual drive was purely electric via an electric motor,
03:10which delivered a total system output of 163 horsepower
03:14and an impressive 315 newton meters to the front wheels.
03:19The flagship of the series, called Lockshin, offered even more technology.
03:23Among other things, it featured ProPilot 2.0,
03:27a system that enabled semi-autonomous driving on single-lane highways from around 40 kilometers per hour.
03:33It was supplemented by the ProBlot Park,
03:35a parking assistant that was able to recognize parking space markings for the first time in a Nissan model.
03:42Those opting for the e-power model also benefited from a special function.
03:46The van could be used as a mobile power source, for example for camping trips or in an emergency.
03:54This feature, which was otherwise only known from electric vehicles with bi-directional charging,
03:59clearly set the Serena apart from other models in its class.
04:04Unfortunately, the Serena was not officially offered in Europe.
04:07Anyone who still wanted to enjoy this practical all-rounder had to consider importing it from Japan.
04:13On the domestic market, the petrol version started at the equivalent of around 19,000 euros.
04:22Nissan asked around 34,000 euros for the top model with hybrid drive and full equipment.
04:28A fair price considering the technology and space offered.
04:31In conclusion, it should be said that the 2023 Nissan Serena may not have been the most exciting new car of its year,
04:40but it impressively demonstrated that well-thought-out concepts and clever design still had their place,
04:46even in the age of the SUV boom.
