"Tested and proven by consumers themselves, the all-new Nissan Grand Livina, tuned by Impul, can achieve 50km per litre if handled properly," said Edaran Tan Chong Motor Sdn Bhd (ETCM) executive director Datuk Ang Bon Beng at the launch recently.

This improved version of the model has distinctive looks and sports-tuned performance which are trademarks of Impul Motor Racing – a world renowned Japanese motor sports and specialist Nissan tuning expert.

The Grand Livina accounts for more than 50% of Nissan passenger vehicle sales since its introduction, with an average monthly sale of over 1,000 units.

This car comprises a complete Impul Aerokit, Sports Suspension System, Blast II Exhaust Muffler with slick 17-inch Impul Aura SX-10 alloy wheels and Dunlop Formula D-01 205/45 R17 tyres.

The Impul’s sports suspension system is fine-tuned with a 25mm "lowered ride height" to reduce unwanted roll and pitch for optimised handling.

While the stainless steel exhaust muffler improves the engine response, the Impul Aura SX-10 alloy wheels are fabricated with the Impul New Super Cast process that results in 20-30% weight-saving dynamics that enhances safety on the road. With the exception of the alloy wheels, all Impul Grand Livina parts are produced in Malaysia, which makes getting spare parts easier and faster.

The Impul Grand Livina, which comes with a three-year or 100,00km (whichever comes first) warranty, can be viewed at selected Nissan showrooms nationwide.

The automobile is priced at RM95,586 for the 1.6 MT Comfort model, RM99,386 for the 1.6 AT Comfort model and RM108,086 for the 1.8 AT Comfort model.

The on-the-road prices, inclusive of insurance, road tax, registration fee and ownership claim, are only valid for consumers in Peninsular Malaysia.
