What are the differences between the Sylphy and the Sunny?
2 Answers
The differences between the Sylphy and the Sunny are: 1. Different body dimensions: The Sylphy has a body length, width, and height of 4631mm, 1760mm, and 1503mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2700mm; the Sunny has a body length, width, and height of 4456mm, 1696mm, and 1514mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2600mm. 2. Different body lettering: The Sylphy has 'sylphy' on its body, while the Sunny has 'sunny'. Both the Sylphy and the Sunny are compact cars under Dongfeng Nissan, with a four-door, five-seater sedan body structure, and both are equipped with naturally aspirated engines.
When I was choosing a car, I also compared the Sylphy and the Sunny. The Sylphy is positioned as more high-end, with a length of nearly 4.7 meters, and it feels noticeably more spacious inside, especially in the back seat where you can even cross your legs comfortably. The Sunny, on the other hand, is just over 4.4 meters long, and the back seat feels a bit cramped with three adults. The Sylphy's interior uses soft-touch materials and comes with a large infotainment screen, while the Sunny is mostly hard plastic with basic configurations. In terms of power, the Sylphy's 1.6L engine is more powerful than the Sunny's 1.5L, making overtaking easier. However, the Sunny does have lower fuel consumption, needing only about 6 liters per 100 km in city driving. Now that the Sunny has been discontinued, if the budget allows, the Sylphy is definitely the more comfortable choice. If you're just looking for a cheap used car for commuting, a second-hand Sunny might still be an option, but overall, it falls short in comfort and space compared to the Sylphy.
