Nissan Teana (J31). 2003–8 (prod. n/a). 4-door sedan. F/F, 1997, 2488 cm³ (I4 DOHC), 2349, 3498 cm³ (V6 DOHC). Large Nissan sedan, lacking the sporting flair of US-market Maxima, which was on a lengthened version of the same platform. Shared platform with contemporary Altima, but looking more like an enlarged Nissan Bluebird Sylphy (G11). Refined V6 engine and, overall, a comfortable car. Sold as Cefiro or Maxima in many export markets.
