The Nissan Terra will make its way to a number of markets in Southeast Asia, after the Japanese automaker announced its rollout plan for the frame-based SUV. The Terra, which is available as a five- or seven-seater, has already made its debut in China, where it is offered as the former.
According to Nissan, customers in the Philippines can already start pre-ordering the new Terra ahead of deliveries starting from August 2018, making the country the second in the world to receive the SUV. Unlike the petrol-powered version sold in China, the Terra destined for the Philippines will be powered by the YD25DDTi 2.5 litre four-cylinder turbodiesel that makes 190 hp and 450 Nm of torque.
The SUV will also be introduced in Thailand and Indonesia during this fiscal year, with Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam set to follow – no mention of specifications yet. Malaysia was not listed as one of the markets where the Terra will be offered.
The Terra will be built at Nissan’s production hub in Thailand for the Southeast Asian market. “The new Nissan Terra is being built in and for Southeast Asia. It demonstrates our commitment to making innovation accessible to more customers in the region,” said Yutaka Sanada, Nissan’s regional senior vice president for the Asia and Oceania region.
Features available on the Terra include the Nissan Intelligent Mobility suite of systems (Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Warning and Intelligent Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection), locking rear differential, Hill Start Assist, Hill Descent Control and a ground clearance of 225 mm.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Tan chong doesn’t want to invest, and Nissan Japan not interested too
Ini salahan besar MAI..
MAI is one of the departments that should close down. All do nothing there. Goyang kaki and get 5 figure pay
Invest what? Did you know Thailand was the automobile hub for Japanese car maker where the car and parts manufacture there was exported as far to Europe, Latin America and US?
Maybe they are afraid of the new govt…who wouldnt if every single project is cancelled…
Hopefully with a clean Government now, more companies will return back to Malaysia instead of choosing Thailand.
My message to these companies are….we are no more corrupted like before.
No. We go back to the heyday height of corruption back in the 90s.
ETCM is obviously not good enough.
Rumours has it that sime Darby and naza are talking with Nissan Japan, well your guess is as good as mine.
Fortuner sudah ada maa, what for buy Terra horr
For msia, becos assembly is by TC, so TC needs to agree. Maybe TC will assemble it 2 years later in 2020, typical TC of being late comer….
No need la for TC to assemble it. Volume will be too low and the vehicle will end with ridiculously expensive packaging but with minimal fitting (i.e. only two airbags, no blindspot warning, etc). Just pickup from the Thailand hub cukup. It will be consistent QC since its a Nissan hub.
Tan Chong Malaysia’s Management are still Dead and Useless AF. No new or updated models compared Nissans in Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Canada, USA and especially Japan.
No official Juke, GTR, Murano, Petrol, Note and even the Hideous Honda HRV killer the beautiful Qashqai. WTF? No wonder Honda Malaysia is Jaguh Kampung Jepun No 1 in Malaysia with SHIT build quality cars.
Tan Chong upper management still stuck in the 90s. Living in past glory of the V6 Cefiro.
They wont have the foresight to bring in new models.
Thank God Subaru is under the Singapore branch of the family that owns Tan Chong Group.
