The Nissan Sunny 2012 model has been discontinued. The reasons for discontinuation are as follows: The Nissan Sunny lacks personality both inside and out: its mediocre exterior design fails to keep up with current trends. The interior design is even more outdated, with extensive use of plastic materials that exude a strong sense of cheapness. Currently, many models under the Nissan brand have entered the YOUNG-NISSAN 3.0 era, while the Nissan Sunny is gradually fading from public view. Pursuit of profit at the expense of reduced features: Generally, automotive safety can be divided into active safety and passive safety. With advancements in the automotive industry, common electronic assistance systems are no longer unfamiliar. For example, standard configurations like traction control systems and ESP (Electronic Stability Program) for vehicle stability are entirely absent in the Nissan Sunny lineup. On slippery or snowy roads, the vehicle's stability is very poor, especially when cornering at slightly higher speeds, leading to a loss of control. In terms of occupant protection, the Nissan Sunny is only equipped with front airbags for the driver and passenger, lacking side airbags both front and rear. Additionally, the Sunny's braking performance is mediocre, with many owners reporting a feeling of inadequate stopping power. Braking performance depends on various factors, including the braking system, brake pads, vehicle mass, and tire performance. The Nissan Sunny uses front ventilated disc brakes and rear drum brakes. This configuration is typical for low-end models, featuring poor heat dissipation and performance degradation after prolonged braking. In terms of tires, the Nissan Sunny uses 185/70R14 specifications across all models. While narrow tires have lower friction, which can improve fuel efficiency slightly, this also results in longer braking distances, increasing the risk of accidents.
