This car replaced the lineup of cars based on the Nissan LL Class platform - Cedric and Gloria, which were produced by Nissan for many years. Apparently, it's time to completely change the concept of the machine. Fuga debuted in the fall of 2004. If we talk about the origin of the name, the word "fuga" in Italian means a kind of musical work, and in Japanese it means elegance, sophistication. The curved roof of the sedan gives a touch of "merchant". The top-end configurations belong to the GT class and are equipped with 19-inch wheels, and the rear wheels are equipped with an active steer system. Under the hood of the Nissan Fuga is one of three engine options: a V6 of 2.5 liters or 3.5 liters or a V8 of 4.5 liters.
 One of the undeniable advantages of the car is a roomy interior, and even with a good margin in height, which makes the interior space the largest in its class. There are many color options for the interior and leather upholstery options, which is also important. Standard equipment includes electric mirrors with folding function and electric front seats with memory function, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control with Plasmacluster Ion technology. In the most saturated trim levels, you can see the front passenger seat with a retractable footrest, the front seats are equipped with a microclimate support system, the rear seats are also equipped with electric drive, heating and an individual control system (audio, air conditioning, seat adjustment), a DVD system with 8 '' monitors is installed in front and back, Bose speakers with 14 speakers and more. In the new Fuga model, it was decided to use two varieties of the VQ series engine. First of all, this is a 6-cylinder V-shaped engine with a working volume of 3.5 liters, and, in addition, the same engine, but 2.5 liters. Both motors are DOHC type. Their power is 210 and 280 horsepower. In August 2005, they were supplemented by an 8-cylinder engine with a displacement of 4.5 liters, familiar from the Infiniti M45 model - its maximum output of 333 liters. with. On all machines, regardless of engine size, there is a 5-speed automatic transmission. It should be noted that it can also work in a semi-automatic mode of downshifts.

 The design of the Nissan Fuga uses the FM – L platform, which became the main one for the company after it was tested in the Skyline lineup. But at the same time, the suspension and shock absorbers underwent further improvement. In versions 450GT and 350GT Sports Package, the car is equipped with 19-inch wheels, an active steering drive of the rear wheels is provided. For models with a 3.5-liter engine, the 4WD Attesa E-TS with electronic torque distribution was offered. The sedan has a wheelbase of 2900 mm, and its length from bumper to bumper is 4830-4900 mm. The total width of the body - 1795 mm, height 1510-1525 mm. The minimum turning radius, depending on the modification, is 5.3-5.6 m. The dimensions of the internal space are decent - the dimensions of the cabin are 2140 x 1535 x 1240 mm (L x W x H). The luggage compartment has a volume of about 400 liters and a hatch for transporting long lengths.

 The first generation Nissan Fuga is considered a very safe car. Standard equipment includes front airbags, ABS and VDC (vehicle dynamics control, including TCS traction control), three-point seat belts for all seats. Side airbag system and curtain airbags - option or standard for expensive versions. The car has an intelligent cruise control. Enhanced safety is promoted even by standard fog lights, a stepless wiper with the function of determining the speed of the car and a rain sensor, an active light control system, xenon headlights with auto-leveling function (simple models are equipped with halogens with a manual adjustment mechanism). According to its driving characteristics and level of comfort, Nissan Fuga is quite ready to argue with the best European cars of the highest category. Its attractive sides are a roomy interior with a large supply of rear space, and quite powerful engines. Owners also appreciate the appearance of the car, its reliability, quite sturdy, albeit stiff, expensive suspension to repair. Negative aspects are associated with the availability and price of some parts, insufficiently good sound insulation, low ground clearance, and often increased oil consumption.
