Nissan distributor Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM) has introduced the Nissan Almera Black Series in Malaysia. The second model to receive the Black Series treatment after the NP300 Navara, the B-segment sedan gets a aerokit designed by Japanese tuner Tomei, as well as extra equipment for no extra cost.
This means that the Black Series, offered in 1.5E and 1.5VL Auto variants, are priced exactly the same as the standard models at RM69,800 and RM79,800 respectively, on-the-road without insurance. Included in the list price is a five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty, plus a three-year/150,000 km warranty for all the accessories.
These accessories include the aforementioned Tomei aerokit, consisting of an aggressive front spoiler, side skirts and rear diffuser, all finished with Dark Titanium accents. Meanwhile, the existing front grille, door mirror covers and 15-inch Y-spoke alloy wheels have been painted gloss black, as has the new rear spoiler.
On the inside, buyers are treated to leather seats with the same Dark Titanium highlights as the exterior, plus a Clarion Advanced Display Audio infotainment system with a 6.75-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity and a reverse camera. Also fitted is a wide-angle Driving Video Recorder dashcam as well as Solar Gard window tint film.
All these go on top of the Almera’s standard equipment, which includes halogen reflector headlights, LED daytime running lights, door mirror indicators, a driver’s airbag and ABS with EBD and brake assist. The VL adds front fog lights, keyless entry, automatic air-conditioning, a multifunction steering wheel, a Fine Vision instrument cluster and dual airbags.
The mechanicals remain unchanged, so the Black Series gets the same 1.5 litre HR15DE four-cylinder petrol engine, sending 102 PS and 139 Nm of torque to the front wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The car will be shown at the upcoming Nissan Nationwide Test Drive Carnival in selected showrooms over two weekends, on November 9 to 11 and November 17 to 18 from 10 am to 8 pm.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
wow, they still sells a single airbag car that cost almost two Saga Executive.
No safety upgrade, no buy!
But basher says losing sales means they working hard and not lazy wor…. somemore ancient dinosar means superb reliability wor….
So shameful. In Europe, no car has 2 airbags. Here, our Government does not protect us from greedy car companies who shortchange us.
In Europe, if a car has no VSC (like this car) or only 2 airbags, the respective Governments will actually sue the car company on behalf of the rakyat and demand higher safety spec.
In Malaysia, MITI, MAI all tidur, lepak and minum teh 8x sambil makan kuih lapis
So shameful that u claimed they working hard but continue to gips lousy poor safety specs on a dinosar car. Shame shame.
Dual airbags
Got 2 airbags now. Hahaha.
The Ah Beng Ultimate Drving Mesin
Sorry..that title goes to Godcar@vios
There will be more tailgating moron on the road thinking he is driving a gtr
Poor man GTR badge without power come with really ugly look. PUIK !
Ah Beng most ugliest and useless ultimate machine
no need buy mercedes amg to get a black series
When you want an amg but you can only afford an almera…
this P.O.S datsun is still selling? other options like Honda City/Jazz or the new Myvi is a better buy…
Oh No! Not again… always recycled product?
I say the Almera LED daytime running lights is just too bright, brighter than even the main beam and very glaring to the eyes.
Much better than your myvi cheap DRL
I prefer Mivi’s cheap DRL than Almari’s DRL. Looks like LED light inside my almari
Black series….
So ppl cant see u driving an almera?
Lol!
Tan Chong making many people angry after their Teana post 2 days ago. Malaysia wants to launch facelifted Teana in Malaysia but in US already got brand new Teana model (Altima). We are 3 years late. How bad is this?
No need to be ANGRY.
There are other better and most exciting choice to choose
Nissan badge just doesn’t SHINE but APEK in style and engineering
Who care what Tan Chong sells. ? Nissan is just not most people cup of tea nowadays except the better and value for money choice Renault and Subaru cars
Wow! Still exist orh this car. Nissan Almera, u should intro new model for replacement. Black Series? Next few months, Black Series Special after that Black Series Special Edition and next Black Series Special Edition Limited and next model Black Series Special Edition Limited (100units) With Nismo racing sticker. Good marketing strategy.
the heck? they are still recycling this? with two airbags? amazing…
dont just blame TCM for this.. blame the stupid potential cheap buyers who still gonna support this cheap product
Beautiful front, hideous rear
Wow. Only top spec give airbags to passenger? That also add another one only and priced at 80k? Without ESC some more. Damn TCM are you living in 2010?? Makes Bezza top spec with ESC a better buy than this.
i rather buy a myvi despite having more safety features and nissan services is bad …
Those who kutuk this car, certainly havent drive or sat at the back. Owned this for 4 years. Very comfy ride & spacious rear legroom & headroom means its good for families of 4 or those with old parents. Rear seats habe deep side bolster that supports your back nicely.
But then, it doesnt offer a sporty drive & feels lethargic going uphill. Its highly utilitarian & less hedonic, nwvertheless it does its job remarkably well.
Just close shop la. So bored to see your lousy boring product.
the ugliest looking car in its segment.
I really dont understand why such an ugly car get even uglier and people still buying it. Its an eyesore seeing one on the road..
Dear author
Can you please explain why Nissan is still allowed to sell cars with 1 airbag? What happened to 2 airbags regulation?
But at least got ABS. ABS more important day to day than airbags. ABS prevents crash, airbag only help during crash.
You referring to my Alza without ABS spec?
I could “black series” my own ride with 2 bottles of spray paints from Mr DIY…
No replacement in sight. Playing only with colours and body kits. They are going to drag on like 130y which is sold for more than 10 years. Carlos Ghosn or Tan Chong is sleeping.
The only thing that does not get attracted is the dark seat covers. I think this is donky Hide emanated from African continenent procured by Chinese migrant in the African continent.
Please therefore get the proper seat covers. It does not matter a few more thousand for the car which you will be keeping for few years.
Not again! Stop la recycling products TC. If you don’t have the economic of scale to assemble it, then just import it from Thailand. Your Nissan offering is WAY outdated. 1 airbag? Oh come on…
City drive fuel consumption very high. Full 80 mileage 380km only.. Check with Nissan center they said normal.
Even my car also same.
Same spec same problem.
Not recommended for this black series
