2 Answers
The 20t transmission of the new Teana is imported. The transmission, generally referring to the gearbox, is a mechanism used to change the speed and torque from the engine, capable of fixed or stepped changes in the transmission ratio between the output and input shafts. The Teana is a B-class car under Nissan, and this model has been well-received by many consumers since its launch. The new Teana has a wheelbase of 2825mm, with length, width, and height measuring 4901mm, 1850mm, and 1447mm respectively. The new Teana is equipped with two types of engines: a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine delivers 159 horsepower and a maximum torque of 208 Nm, while the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 185 kW and a maximum torque of 380 Nm. The front suspension of the new Teana uses a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension employs a trapezoidal control arm multi-link independent suspension.
Regarding the transmission of the new Teana 2.0T, I've heard it's usually not imported. Dongfeng Nissan has mature production lines in China, and the new Teana has a high localization rate, with most engines and transmissions supplied locally. I've researched Nissan's supply chain—many components are provided by domestic joint ventures like JATCO, prioritizing cost control and efficiency, reducing the need for imports. Unless it's a high-end or special edition, imported components might be involved. From a driving perspective, there's not much difference in transmission quality; domestically produced ones are equally smooth and durable, with more convenient and cheaper maintenance. I suggest checking the factory nameplate or consulting the 4S store when buying to avoid misunderstandings. Overall, you can confidently choose the domestic model—it offers great value for money and peace of mind.
