2020 Nissan Sunny - First impression

The brand new 2020 Nissan Sunny is the latest offering from the Japanese automaker and is slated to make its debut quite soon. The sedan also happens to be the newest addition to the Sunny nameplate’s long lineage, the first edition of which was introduced back in 1966. Over the years, the Nissan Sunny sedan has become a typical sight on the streets of the United Arab Emirates and for an excellent reason. 

Churning out 122 bhp and 155 Nm of torque, from its 1.6L 4-cylinder motor which comes equipped with the carmaker's latest generation engine technology, the Sunny is an impressive option in a segment which has been so far dominated by its chief adversary, the Hyundai Accent and the much loved Toyota Corolla. 

An incredible vehicle for the typical urban customer, the Nissan Sunny is the ideal option for those looking for a car that is particularly great at offering unparalleled levels of comfort and practicality at a competitive price.

How does the new 2020 Nissan Sunny look?

Exteriors of the new sedan are longer, wider and taller than the preceding model and the 2020 Nissan Sunny embodies an entirely different shape roused by Nissan's ‘Emotional Geometry' design language. 

The front fascia of the car has been completely redesigned along with the rest of the car and features the same styling elements as the rest of the Nissan family portfolio which includes models like the all- new Nissan Altima and even the carmaker’s flagship Nissan Maxima sedan. 

• The front end of the car now features a ‘V’- shaped grille inspired by Nissan’s V- motion design philosophy.
• Both front and rear of the all- new Nissan Sunny now get LED treatments featured in both the headlight and taillight units.
• The rear of 2020 Nissan Sunny now features a new diffuser with an updated design that is painted in the same color as the rest of the body.
• The tail lamps of the 2020 Nissan Sunny gets a ‘boomerang’- shaped led unit
• The car rides on 10- spoke machined alloys which also get a glossy finish.
• Pillars of the sedan have been blacked out to bestow a floating roof effect.

What’s new inside the 2020 Nissan Sunny?

As the 2020 Nissan Sunny is a completely redesigned model, the cabin of the car has also been updated. The all-new Nissan Sunny now comes equipped with a Start/Stop button. The cabin has been completely redesigned and now features an all- black paint scheme. The steering wheel has also been redesigned and gets a flat bottom. There are brushed aluminum accents throughout the cabin and can be found on components such as air vents. The dashboard now features exposed contrasting stitching which runs across the width of the cabin. Located right in the middle of the dashboard we find a touchscreen infotainment system that doubles as the display for the reversing camera. 

Are there any changes under the hood for the new Nissan Sunny?

Under the hood, the 1.6- litre, 122 bhp 4- cylinder engine will likely be offered with a continuously variable automatic transmission. In typical Nissan Sunny tradition, we expected that the Japanese carmaker will employ its competitive pricing strategy with its popular mass- market sedan. Therefore we can say that Nissan will also offer an inexpensive variant that will come equipped with a 5- speed manual gearbox. 

Are there any changes in the 2020 Nissan Sunny’s safety features?

The all- new Nissan Sunny managed to receive a 4- star crash test safety rating by the ASEAN NCAP. In the United Arab Emirates, the sedan will be offered with a wide range of safety and driver-assist features which will include:-

• Rear automatic braking 
• Pedestrian detection 
• High-beam assist 
• Intelligent driver alertness 
• Automatic emergency braking 
• Lane departure warning
• Blind- spot warning 
• Rear cross- traffic alert
• Intelligent cruise control

What colors will the 2020 Nissan Sunny available in?

The 2020 Nissan Sunny will likely be offered in around 8 different color schemes which will probably include the same options like those offered in the international markets. These paint scheme options will likely include Electric Monarch Orange Metallic, Scarlet Ember Tintcoat and Blue Metallic amongst others.
