The Nissan Tulle 4.0L V6 model was officially launched, with three new models, which is the entry model based on the existing 5.6L model of Tulle.

New car profile.

The new model lowers the threshold/the overall style is stable and atmospheric

The new car is consistent with the current Touareg model in appearance, using the Nissan family design style, the front part of the car, the large grille with large chrome trim, compared with the old model, the new car in the middle of the network added three silver trim. The front bumper has black and silver decorations around the fog lamps on both sides, which is highly recognizable.

Tulle 4.0L Pilot Model

The length, width, and height dimensions of the Tuluo 4.0L model are still 5140mm x 1995mm x 1955mm, with a wheelbase of 3075mm, the same as the old model. Compared with other competing models in the same class, especially with the Landcruiser, the size of the Touareg still has a large advantage.

The Tulo 4.0L entry model adopts the exterior design of the old Tulo, with a medium headlight shape and a very stable overall style. In addition, the new car's taillights also still retain the design of the old 5.6L model, rectangular lights with multi-point light source type C-shaped light cluster design are very special.

The interior design style is stable, the entry model configuration is low

In terms of the interior, the Tulle 4.0L Pilot is the lowest model, so it retains the overall shape of the center console of the 5.6L model while eliminating the wood grain trim, large center screen, leather seats, etc. (high-end models will be retained), and visually more plain. Seats, the new car still uses a 2 + 3 + 2 type 7-seat layout, while the second row, the third row of seats is supported 4/6 ratio split down.

Powertrain with 4.0L V6 engine + 7-speed automatic transmission

Previously, the Touareg model in the country is only equipped with a 5.6L V8 naturally aspirated engine, while the new model will be equipped with a 4.0L V6 naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 279 hp and peak torque of 394 Nm. The transmission is matched with a 7-speed automatic transmission.

Due to the positioning of the hard-core off-road model, the Touareg V6 model retains a non-load-bearing body structure, and the front and rear suspensions are independent double-wishbone suspensions. At the same time, the vehicle is equipped with an intelligent all-mode 4WD system that provides AUTO gear, high-speed 4WD gear, and low-speed 4WD gear, and the 4WD system has four driving modes (sand, road, rock, and snow) to choose from.

Competitor models.

In terms of competitors, the Touareg is a large SUV model, its main competitor is only the Land Cruiser, and the two vehicles are the same hardcore SUV positioning. The positioning of the relatively luxurious Mercedes-Benz GLS, Lexus LX, Range Rover, and Cadillac Escalade models, is up to the same Nissan Infiniti QX80 to deal with. From the price aspect, the car's pricing also overlaps with the Audi Q7, BMW X5, and other luxury brand mid-size SUVs, so such models will also bring pressure on the Touareg to a certain extent.

Article Summary.

The Tumult model has not been well known in China, but it has gained a lot of recognition in domestic off-road circles due to its strong off-road performance and stability. Its biggest competitor, the Landcruiser, is far better known than it, but the Landcruiser has been discontinued in China and can only be purchased through parallel import channels in the future, which undoubtedly brings space for the Tulle model. The launch of the new Tulle 4.0L model is to further lower the entry threshold of the model, the starting price of 520,000 yuan is still a certain amount of sincerity. In addition, the new car in the configuration is slightly higher than the same price models, coupled with the identity of imported cars, I believe that this market is still very competitive, as, for the performance of the car after the market, we will also wait and see.
