      I actually bought the 2.0L version in Taiwan.  Everything else being the same.  I did test drive the 2.3L version and you can only tell the difference when you floor the gas pedal. 

      I guess the most attractive thing to me about the car was its exterior shape.  You either love it or hate it but to me, it seems stylish like a BMW.  Some people don't like the large behind of the car, I think it is because most cars don't have behinds so large.  Next thing is the price.  It costed about $150,000 NT ($5,000US) less than a basic Toyota Camry here in Taiwan.  I test drove the 2008 Camry, while its exterior seems more refined and contemporary than Teana, that alone is not worth the $5,000 US inflated price.  In fact, Teana can hold its own from the outside.  But to me, the Teana 2.0 drives smoother and feels more stable than the Camry 2.0.  I've heard people who bought the Camry often get car-sick when they drive hours on the winding twists of the mountain road.  I've been driving Teana for almost 3 weeks now and it feels so smooth and stable.  It also feels like it is moving steady and slow, like a large ship moving, but in fact it is because of its large size and great suspensions that gives you that illusion.  My mom who usually scolds me for going too fast on my old Corolla, but she doesn't scold me anymore on Teana even though I'm driving faster on Teana than on the Corolla.  When you go 120 km/h on the highway, it feels like you are moving at 60 km/h.  Camry is a little wider than Teana but Teana is a little longer, weighs about 30-50 kg more.  But inside I think Teana feels bigger.  As I was saying earlier, Camry steering to me feels a little loose and awkard.  Carmy 2.0 is feels also sluggish to me, more so than my Teana 2.0.  It may due to Teana few extra horsepower. 

      I think the interior is just OK.  Some people think it is luxurious, while others think it is overly simple and bland.  I had a TV installed, I really have little complaint about the inside.   

      Overall, I have been getting about 10.5 km/l in gas mileage for my first 2500 km.  This isn't so good or too bad either.  I would guess 2.3L would get slightly worse gas mileage. 

      I'm quite happy with my Teana, I hoped the gas mileage would be a little better, but for a big car, it isn't so bad.  I like the styling, I like the smooth ride, while the accelaration is really nothing to write home about, it is a great car for a great price.  I would've bought the Carmy if it wasn't so expensive, but I think I'm very happy with Teana.  It is for somebody who wants a luxurious big sedan without paying too much for it.  Oh yeah, the keyless ignition comes in very handy.  Next thing I would buy for my car is to replace the rims to something that'll make it stand out more. 

      Good style; smooth ride; good value; looks like it cost moremediocre fuel economy. very simple interior. Feels a little lethargic.

      Disappointed and having bad experience on Nissan Teana 2010/2011 2500 cc type XV with CVT Transmission, here is total review, trying to be as thorough as possible and for additional information we're using this as metropolitan city car with more than 9 million city populations. 1) CVT transmission just works fine & well, never have any issue with it as long as we change the AT oil on time on proper spec 2) Fuel consumption with bad, average and good traffic combined around 1 litre = 8 KM 3) I really love how the exterior looks, calm, elegant, classic, quite ageless with long body chassis reflecting to 4) Comfortable seating experience for back seat passenger whose using driver frequently + lovely back seating armrest with wood panel and 5) Behind armrest, there's a connecting partition for access to trunk (lovely feature) 6) Leather seat cracks after its 6th and 7 th year, really falling apart and torn 7) Audio for the car at this price has no Bluetooth, no camera both reverse and front is not available, steering wheels with audio control is a yes 8) Engine and part is having so many problems: a) Tensioner acting up, I can change my tension once every year or twice per 3 years with mileage lower than 30K KM, always committed to using original spare parts but still, I can go nuts if I do not change it since the metal friction noise will turn you mad b) Air con: in specific evaporator broke twice in 40K KM and not cool enough for tropical country whilst good side it has dual mode for left and right passenger preference c) Steering rack causing mild leak that went through underneath bushing and creating new problem in the wheel alignment whereas its normal to get half side of my tire worn out easily d) Water exit way from sunroof, you have to manage this and check water outlet below back passenger door both left and right, remove the clip on the door seal rubber and water will normally flow from there ( a lot sometimes) after rainy season e) Sunroof rattles for sure you can hear sometimes on a slight or bumpy road soft crack crack crack sound, for ones with sensitive ear, this will be hard to bear f) Trunk cover made out of Styrofoam with fragile quality so every time we need to take out the spare tire it will be torn g) Start and stop engine button failed to work on 10th year even with good maintenance (still on process fixing this as I am writing this) h) Right rear view mirror motor dead on its 7th year without any sign I) Right driver side power window acting up a lot and stuck so often as well j) Without original brake pad you'll hear lots of squeaking sound everytime you hit the brake k) Steering wheel leather also cracks before 6th year l) Radiator top cap (black plastic part) just crack and crumble and the significant sign was radiator water kept on decreasing quite significant but not to an empty stage m) Large trunk capacity Please take note that my car is well maintained and oil exchange happens every 4000 - 4500 KM using semi synth oil 10/40 and or 5/30 For me to be honest I am disappointed with this car, its taking so much time for maintenance and tough for working people that sits a lot within traffic and do not have enough time to cope with these things and lots of money too whilst spare parts availability is far from abundant. Thinking of selling it end of this year as I start to give up after a fixed comes b problem and c to x y z makes my heart jumps. This is a Japanese car as troublesome and sensitive as EU car brands with prestige that might be more worth it
