What is the maximum speed of the Nissan Terra on the highway?
2 Answers
Nissan Terra's maximum speed on the highway is around 200 km/h. Below is a related introduction to the Nissan Terra: 1. Interior: The new Terra features a symmetrical layout for its interior, equipped with a large central control screen and one-key start among other configurations. The instrument panel adopts a traditional mechanical pointer design. 2. Powertrain: The domestically produced TERRA Terra is powered by a QR25 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power output of 135kW. For transmission, the engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual or a Jatco 7-speed automatic transmission. The Terra also comes equipped with a part-time four-wheel-drive system.
I've driven the Nissan Terra at its top speed a few times. The official data is around 180 to 190 km/h, but on the highway, the fastest I've reached was about 185 km/h, at which point I noticed increased wind noise and the steering wheel feeling light. As a rugged SUV, it has a 2.5L engine but only about 170 horsepower. The vehicle is heavy and has high aerodynamic drag, so it lacks explosive power, especially when climbing hills or fully loaded. For highway cruising, maintaining 110-120 km/h is the most comfortable and fuel-efficient. Exceeding 140 km/h makes it somewhat unstable and can easily trigger the ESP system to intervene. I've also tried different model configurations; the diesel version might differ by less than 10 km/h, and off-road tires have a significant impact as well. The key is safety first—China's speed limit is 120 km/h, so pursuing extreme speeds isn't necessary. Regular checks on tires and brakes can improve performance.
