Car "Nissan Fuga": technical features, description and reviews

“Nissan Fuga" first appeared before the eyes of motorists in 2003, at a presentation in Tokyo. This attractive machine has sparked the interest of many people. However, I developed it specifically for the domestic market of Japan. However, true connoisseurs of high-quality cars did not stop. Ordered a model in her Homeland or themselves brought the car to his home. Anyway, in Russia there are people who own this car. Well, since it is so popular, it should be special attention paid to its characteristics.

Design

The Main feature, which boasts “the Nissan Fuga”, is its appearance. From the very first glance at the car, it becomes clear – this is a real business class. A powerful grille, “narrowed" headlights, a little overlay on wings, rear optics, like the Skyline, aluminium doors and wings, predatory lines of the body… it All just can not leave indifferent.

Another shape could not be affected by the dimensions of the car. Machine long – the first model reached 4 840 mm Width of the car was 1 795 mm height-1 510 mm. Thanks to these dimensions, the model seemed elongated, dynamic, forward looking and wide. As a real sports car. By the way, the wheelbase could boast quite an impressive size – as many as 2 900 mm ground clearance, the developers have done sports low – 13.5 cm. Japan is, of course, acceptable. But here in Russia, in the case of getting to the area with bad roads, have to go at minimum speed and in a detour pits.

It “taxis” and the drive wheels changes the geometry of the rear suspension depending on steering angle and speed. All this has a positive effect on the control.
