Following the exposure of the declaration picture, "Automotive Industry concern" noted that the actual picture of Zhengzhou Nissan's new Paladin interior was also exposed on the Internet.

Judging from the exposed pictures, the interior style of the new car basically continues the design style of Zhengzhou Nissan Parasso and Vernon 7, but has been greatly modified in detail. The car adopts deep and light two-color matching, and the shape of the center console is similar to that of Palaso and Vernon 7, but it is equipped with oversized central-controlled liquid crystal display screen and hidden storage space in the lower part of the sub-instrument console.

Previously, the new car declaration map has appeared in the new car declaration catalogue of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. According to the declaration information of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the trademark of the new car is "style plate" and the rear of the car is marked with the letter "PALADIN". This logo is exactly the English of Paladin, a famous car of Zhengzhou Nissan at that time. In addition, Automotive Industry concern noted that the logo of the new car is not Dongfeng Shuangfeiyan LOGO, but a new LOGO, and Zhengzhou Nissan is expected to "revive" the old SUV Paladin as a model under the new brand.

Friends who are familiar with Zhengzhou Nissan must be no stranger to the appearance of this new car, the appearance of the new car basically continues the current Nissan Touda design style, the biggest change is the use of a new brand logo. In terms of details, as a new model, the new car has also been optimized in detail. The front face weakens the Nissan family "V"-shaped chromium-plated grille and is replaced by a new China net design and a smoked headlamp version design. In the rear part, the new car is also highly similar to the Tuda model, except that the rear of the new car is replaced with a brand-new style of large-size roof spoiler, and the chrome-plated banner located in the upper part of the rear license plate area is marked with the new "PALADIN" letter, which is highly recognizable.

In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car is 4882/1850/1875mm, the wheelbase is 2850mm, and the positioning is hardline SUV. For comparison, the current Nissan Touda length, width and height are 4882/1850/1835mm, wheelbase is 2850mm. In other words, except for the height increase of the 40mm, the other dimensions of the new car are consistent with the current Nissan Touda.

In terms of power, the new car is equipped with a 2.0L four-cylinder gasoline turbocharged engine provided by Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi, with a maximum power of 168kW and is expected to match the ZF8AT gearbox. Completely different from the current Nissan QR25 engine, the current Nissan Tuda is equipped with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power increase of 26 kilowatts.

Paladin is a car brand produced by Zhengzhou Nissan Automobile Co., Ltd., once famous in China, Tuda is regarded as Paladin's successor, officially unveiled in 2018, positioning non-load-bearing body hard SUV, power, equipped with QR25 2.5L self-priming engine, the maximum power is 135kW. In terms of transmission, the engine is matched with a 6-speed manual or Jatco 7-speed automatic transmission.

The appearance of the "Paladin" declaration chart means that the model, which was once famous in China, will return to the domestic market. In addition, the development of the new car based on Nissan Tuda also means that the car will have a hard SUV attribute. In terms of price, the price range of the 2020 Touda currently on sale is 169800-248300 yuan. As the new car no longer uses the Nissan LOGO logo, according to the previous product logic of Zhengzhou Nissan, the starting price of the new car is expected to be cheaper than Tuda, or around 150000 yuan.

Tuda sold a cumulative total of 1649 vehicles in the first three months of 2023, including 313,540 and 796 from January to March, respectively, according to retail data from the Federation of passengers.
