For a Long time Serena had practically no competitors. But the tall, “square” body chosen for this model quickly gained popularity. The vast majority of modern Japanese minibuses are produced with this body.

The Nissan Serena traditionally features a spacious 8-seater saloon with three rows of seats. The new generation is distinguished by increased salon capabilities for transformation. The simple addition of a seat moving between the first and second rows has opened a truly untamed field for experiments. For the first time, we got a retractable driver’s seat and a spare wheel under the front passenger seat.The range of used engines has practically not changed. Still used a two-liter motor, supported by a variety. The car is found in all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive versions. Depending on the market, the configuration of the power unit can be changed to fully satisfy the demand of buyers in a particular country.

Good capacity with a relatively compact size will make it possible to use this type of transport in completely different areas of our life. Some turn small buses into separate apartments with all amenities. But most of all went to Ukraine, where the original project appeared  Pati Bas Kiev.

Unlike the closest pursuers, Nissan Serena and Toyota Noah Stepwagon is equipped with engines of 2 and 2.4 liters. On the 2-liter car, with front or all-wheel drive, there is a 4-speed “automatic”. In the modification with the 2.4-liter engine – variator or 5-speed automatic, depending on the type of drive.
