As a comparison, the domestic cash Jinke is equipped with 1.6L engine and matches the CVT continuously variable transmission, all of which are pioneer models.
In 2014, Nissan unveiled the Kisks Concept, a concept car from Sao Paulo, Brazil, which was jointly developed by Nissan's American design center and the Brazilian design center. In August 2016, the mass production version of Kiscks was officially launched in Brazil. Dongfeng Nissan introduced Kicks into domestic production and sales in 2017 and named it "Jinke". It made its debut at the 2017 Shanghai Auto Show and went public in July 2017, with a guiding price range of 998-134800 yuan. Nissan Jinke positioning small SUV, length, width and height are 4295/1760/1588mm, wheelbase 2620mm, pricing and size are smaller than Nissan Xiaoke, power is equipped with the Nissan Sunshine system 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, matched with the CVT gearbox.

As a small SUV, Nissan's main competitors include joint ventures such as Honda XR-V/, Volkswagen Visitor / Tougaard, Toyota Yize / C-HR, and so on. Judging from the sales performance of the joint venture small SUV in 2023, Honda Colour and XR-V performed best, with sales of 52608 and 39371, respectively, compared with Nissan's 8111, which far underperformed other joint venture small SUV, even though it cut prices in 2023. Of course, the performance of the current joint venture small SUV is not good. The top three small SUV sales in 2023 are domestic cars, while the sales of Qiyue, Linke 06 and Chuanqi GS3 are 89920, 60734 and 53912 respectively.
It is not known whether Dongfeng Nissan will introduce a new generation of domestic models after returning to Nissan, but the probability of introducing domestic models is expected to be relatively high. However, even if it is introduced into the domestic market, the new generation of strong customers still do not seem to have many bright places. Changing the appearance and increasing the size are the basic operations, and the core power system has not changed, but four-wheel drive models have been added on the original basis. Coupled with the fierce competition in the current domestic market, the new generation of strong customers may just maintain the status quo.
Finally, do you think the new generation of hot guests look good?
