Good news for Nissan’s handy Dualis ‘crossover’ with a 1.6- litre turbo-diesel engine headlining 2013 updates.
Nissan has also ramped-up the technology with all Dualis models gaining a standard reversing camera and satellite navigation from 1 May.
ST and TS models add new-design 17-inch alloy wheels.
Nissan’s R9M 1.6-litre turbo-diesel engine introduces a new ‘TS’ model grade for the Dualis (only available in five-seat models). It’s based on the existing ‘ST’ variant but with extras such as front fog lights, privacy glass and some additional chrome highlights.
The turbo-diesel delivers 96kW of power and peak torque of 320Nm. Combined cycle fuel consumption is rated at 4.5l/100kms.
Unfortunately there is no automatic transmission for diesel Dualis.
The updated Nissan Dualis range looks like this:
4x2 ST manual $25,990
4x2 ST automatic $28,490
4x2 TS manual $29,990
4x2 Ti-L manual $32,190
