Valentine’s Day takes place in February and while it is regarded as a special occasion for couples, it is also a time when appreciation can be shown to those whom we care about. With this in mind, Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM) is having a promotion with special offers on Nissan products as a way of showing its appreciation to customers.

The promotion, called ‘Fall In Love At First Deal’ is for popular models such as the X-Trail and Serena. In the case of the X-Trail, there’s a new Black Edition accessories package which gives a bolder image with black-themed items. The package includes a Black Front Grille, Black TOMEI Aerokit, 17-inch Gloss Black Alloy Wheels, Brown NAPPA Combination Leather Seat with Leatherette Dashboard and Knee Pads, and Ice Cool Tinting.

Since being launched in 1991, the Nissan Serena has had a varied model cycle through 5 generations, as long as 8 years (first generation) and as short as 5 years (third generation). Nevertheless, it has been a popular MPV in Japan because of its family-friendly design which has evolved with the changing needs of customers.

The sixth generation (C28) launched recently continues with this successful formula while offering new powertrain technologies and safety systems. Though having some visual similarities to the C27 generation, the new Serena has revamped styling, while maintaining roughly the same footprint. It also has the widest windscreen in the MPV category (1.2 – 2.0 litre class with 7/8-seats).

The Nissan Serena is Nissan’s best-selling minivan that’s sold all over the world but the folks in Japan has been graced with a new model. The new Nissan Serena comes with a refreshed new look inside and out along with a host of new intelligent safety features as standard. How cool is that? (more…)

Edaran Tan Chong Motor Sdn Bhd (ETCM) has introduced a new luxury variant of the Nissan Serena 2.0L S-Hybrid that dynamically enhances and exudes premium-ness; the New Nissan Serena J IMPUL.

Designed by Nissan specialist and tuner IMPUL, the Chrome-Plated J IMPUL Front and Rear Lip Spoiler on the Nissan Serena J IMPUL is specifically made in Japan to create a high precision, 3 dimensional design via injection moulding to achieve 10% downforce and improve high speed stability. The 18-inch IMPUL Millennium Alloy Wheels in Black and Polished finish enhances the luxurious design and compliments aerodynamics, while the Mocha-coloured Diamond Quilted Premium Leather Seats further embodies the soul of Japanese luxury.

“The introduction of the New Serena J IMPUL is tailored for customers who seek and appreciate Japanese luxury, while the 2.0L S-Hybrid system continues to offer best-in-class fuel economy of 14.2 km/L (NEDC R101) earning the Nissan Serena the Energy Efficient Vehicle (EEV) status. With thoughtful and innovative features like the Hands-Free Dual Power Sliding Door, Dual Back Door, 7 USB-Powered Ports, Intelligent Around View Monitor (I-AVM) with Intelligent Moving Object Detection (I-MOD), and Smartphone connectivity with Apple CarPlay™, contribute towards making the Nissan Serena 2.0L S-Hybrid the No.1 Best-selling Non-National Mid-size MPV in Malaysia*”, said Mr. Christopher Tan, Sales and Marketing Director of ETCM.

The New Nissan Serena J IMPUL comes with standard 5-years unlimited mileage warranty, while the accessories come with 3-year or 100,000km warranty (whichever comes first).

Following its launch yesterday, we’re currently en route to Penang in the new Nissan Serena S-Hybrid Highway Star and thus far it’s proven to be a very capable 7-seater MPV.

How do 14 cup-holders sound to you? Or the 7 USB ports? It’s capable of sustaining highway speeds quite easily, and tops out at about 190kmh, which is more than fast enough for a vehicle in this category.

Here’s the first impression video, with Yap Kam Foo of EVO/Aurizn, with Christina from Top Gear and Bryan Au of Motor Trader in the back. Do stay tuned for more to come!
