Is the engine of the Nissan Sylphy imported or domestically produced?
2 Answers
The engine of the Nissan Sylphy is domestically produced, but the technology is imported, and its engine model is HR16DE. In terms of noise, the Nissan Sylphy engine operates quietly, with smooth power acceleration, and it remains stable during high-speed driving. The Nissan Sylphy is a compact car launched by Dongfeng Nissan, with dimensions of 4641mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1450mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2712mm. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 99kw, and is paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission.
As a long-time owner of the Nissan Sylphy, having driven it for over three years, I can confirm the car's engine is definitely domestically produced at Dongfeng Nissan's Huadu plant. I've specifically checked - the HR16DE engine is largely assembled in China using local materials, with most components also domestically sourced. This brings multiple advantages: convenient maintenance, low costs, as even roadside repair shops can handle it, unlike imported engines that often require expensive 4S dealership visits. The Sylphy's outstanding sales performance in China owes much to its excellent engine localization, coupled with solid reliability and fuel efficiency of around 6L/100km, making daily commutes worry-free and economical. Nowadays, domestic engine technology matches imported ones, and Dongfeng Nissan maintains strict quality control, so there's absolutely no need for concern.
