Was the Sylphy Previously Called the Bluebird?
2 Answers
No, the Sylphy was not previously called the Bluebird. Here is an introduction to the Sylphy: Introduction: The Sylphy is a mid-size car under Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd., and is one of the most typical mainstream family sedans in the Chinese market. Smart Features: The new car is equipped with the latest Nissan Connect super-intelligent system, featuring an external 8-inch HD capacitive touchscreen, which includes functions such as voice control for the vehicle and remote control of the vehicle. Voice control allows for basic operations of the vehicle's online entertainment system, all-time online navigation system, Bluetooth phone, driving recorder, and air conditioning through simple voice commands.
Having driven Nissan cars for decades, I must clarify that the Sylphy is not the old name for the Bluebird. The Bluebird was my first car, which I drove for over ten years, and it was discontinued around 2000 when Nissan introduced the Sylphy as a new model line. I remember the Sylphy was marketed as the successor to the Bluebird at its launch, featuring a more advanced platform design, but it had a completely independent name—Sylphy. The two share some similarities in their chassis, and after test-driving both, I found the Sylphy's interior more comfortable and fuel-efficient, while the Bluebird had that classic, old-school charm. As a long-time owner, I’d advise car enthusiasts to refer to Nissan's official historical records—the Sylphy represents a new era, while the Bluebird is a cherished memory of the past. The Sylphy debuted after 2000 and was never a renamed version of the Bluebird.
