The differences between the 2019 and 2020 Teana models lie in their configurations: the 2019 Teana features a 7-inch central control LCD screen, while the 2020 Teana has an 8-inch one. Both the 2019 and 2020 Teana models share the same body dimensions: length 4901mm, width 1850mm, height 1447mm, with a wheelbase of 2825mm, a minimum ground clearance of 132mm, and a curb weight of 1435kg. Both models are equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 159PS, a maximum torque of 208Nm, and a maximum power output of 117kW, paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission.

I think the 2020 Teana has made some progress in terms of technology. For example, the infotainment system—while the 2019 model still had the old version, the 2020 model upgraded to the newer NissanConnect, which has a smoother interface and more features, like supporting more smartphone apps. The ProPILOT driver assistance system was also upgraded, making adaptive cruise control smoother and reducing fatigue on long highway drives. The interior hasn’t changed much, but the seat material might be a bit softer, making it more comfortable. Oh, and the price is about the same, but the 2020 model includes more standard safety features, like blind-spot monitoring, which was optional in the 2019 model. Overall, the 2020 model is better suited for those who love new tech, but if you’re an existing owner, the 2019 model is still solid and reliable—it won’t let you down.

After trying the 2019 and 2020 Teana models, I didn't notice much difference in comfort, but the 2020 version has some thoughtful small details. For example, the seat padding is slightly thicker, making long drives less tiring. The cabin's noise insulation has also been improved, with better window sealing that reduces wind noise, so kids can sleep in the back seat undisturbed. The space remains the same, neither bigger nor smaller, but the key improvement is a slight reduction in fuel consumption—the 2020 model's engine tuning is smarter, saving some fuel in city driving. Safety-wise, there's a notable highlight: the 2019 model required an additional automatic braking system, but the 2020 version comes with this feature built-in, which is a big help for new drivers. Price-wise, the 2020 model is slightly more expensive, but the added features are practical and worth the extra cost. If you frequently travel with family, the 2020 model is the better choice—it offers everyday comfort and safety without being overly flashy.

From a design perspective, the most noticeable change in the 2020 Teana is its front fascia. The grille has become more angular and stylish, while the LED headlights provide brighter illumination for clearer nighttime driving. The overall body lines are sleeker compared to the 2019 model, which still retained some rounded edges. Younger buyers might prefer the cooler appearance of the 2020 version. In terms of color options, the 2020 model adds several new shades, such as a deep blue metallic paint that shines brilliantly in sunlight, whereas the 2019 model only offers standard colors, which can feel a bit monotonous. The wheel design has also been slightly adjusted to a multi-spoke style, adding a sporty touch when in motion, though the interior remains largely unchanged with no major surprises. If you're buying a car for the first time, the 2020 model offers stronger visual impact and more head-turning appeal, but the 2019 version is more affordable, still looks good, and is simpler and cheaper to maintain.
