Sedan
In 1993, the Nissan Cima, a luxury luxury car sedan, received a number of changes. In the exterior, they reflected on some external elements of the body: a new radiator grille, an upgraded bumper in which cornering lights appeared, and a chrome molding was added to the trunk lid. The interior of the car was updated in detail, and in addition to the model with the 4.1 V8 engine, another modification now appeared, it was equipped with a 6-cylinder “turbo” V-shaped engine, the working volume of which was 3 liters. Salon Nissan Cima was created in accordance with the main concept, which sounds like "the same comfort for each of the four." From the impressive list of equipment, we can distinguish the electric adjustment of the steering wheel in two planes, an analog clock on the front panel, separate climate control in the front and rear, multi-point interior lighting (legroom, central and rear racks, central tunnel and window buttons). In the top-end configuration, all the seats of the car, including the rear ones, are equipped with electric adjustments. The front passenger seat is controlled not only by its own buttons on the door on the left, but also from the duplicated remote control on the back on the right. The rear armrest has its own individual climate control and audio control unit.

 The top-end Nissan Cima Y32 engine is a V-shaped 8-cylinder DOHC VH41DE engine with a working volume of 4.1 liters and a capacity of 270 liters. with. The engine is very reliable and resourceful, its timing chain practically does not cause problems. The unit is equipped with phase shifters and individual ignition coils. In the rear-wheel drive version, the sedan spent 14.1 liters of gasoline per 100 km in 10/15 mode and 7.1 liters per hundred in 60 km / h mode. For the four-wheel drive version, these figures were 14.9 l / 100 km and 7.8 l / 100 km. After updating the model, engine 3 appeared under the hood. 0 V6 DOHC Turbocharged VG30DET Series. Developed power - 255 hp This motor also turned out to be quite unpretentious, maintainable and slightly more economical than an atmospheric unit - in 10/15 mode it consumes 12.2 l / 100 km, in mode 60 km / h - 6.2 l.

 Nissan Cima is built on the same Y32 platform as the eighth generation Cedric / Gloria, but with a 55 mm longer wheelbase. Front suspension rack type, rear - multi-link. On a Limited L category car, the hydraulic suspension with adjustable dynamic travel (“active suspension”) is an active suspension with microprocessor-controlled hydraulic drives on each wheel, similar to the Infiniti Q45. Such a system, less capricious than pneumatics, proved to be excellent - the car is perfectly controlled, rolls are extinguished in corners, smoothness under normal conditions deserves very high marks. In the atmospheric version 4.1 V8, the sedan can be all-wheel drive - the 4WD S-four series, equipped with the Attesa E-TS system. Car dimensions: length 4930 mm, width 1780 and height 1435 mm. Wheelbase 2815, turning radius 5.6 m. Dimensions of the saloon: 1960 x 1490 x 1160 (L x W x H). The trunk of the sedan is large in volume and quite deep.

 The Nissan Cima Y32 is equipped with a driver's airbag, anti-lock braking system and anti-slip system - only in the standard “Type I” version these options were offered at an extra charge for the first time, but since 1995 all of the above has become the standard for all models, and the side airbag system has appeared in the list of options security. For all its splendor, the second-generation Nissan Cima in the domestic market for used Japanese cars was somewhat underestimated and is considered to be exclusive in its way. The closest comparisons beg with the Toyota Celsior (XF10). Both of these cars are one of the best in the segment of the right-hand drive second-hand 90s, however, it is fair to say that potential buyers of cars of this class were more oriented to the left wheel, even if it was about the Japanese “branches” represented by Infiniti and Lexus. Advantages of the Nissan Cima are softness, a very decent level of comfort, a solid and noble appearance in the British style. In addition to the high tax, the disadvantages are high fuel consumption, difficulties with the availability of some spare parts.
