In case you haven't heard, a famous nameplate with a quarter of a century of history in Australia has turn toNissan showrooms. For those of you who've been living under a rock for the past few months, it's the Pulsar. And this particular model is the flagship variant of the regular Pulsar range. The Ti that comes with all the bells and whistles.
All Pulsars come with a decent spread of standard features, including alloy wheels, cruise control, airbags, multi-function and multi adjust steering wheel, and a full size spare wheel. Externally the Ti boasts the biggest alloys[sp]. 17 inches in diameter while at the front there are xenon gas headlights.
Inside, the Ti takes on a luxury focus with leather seats, push button engine start, bluetooth with audio streaming and an infotainment display and as the top tier model until the arrival of a triple S sports version, the Ti employs only a continuous viral[sp] auto gear box in tandem with the Pulsar's 1.8 meter petrol engine.
We have to admit we're not the biggest fans of CVTs. They tend to be a bit noisy and a little bit sluggish at building up to speed. And the CVT of the Pulsar While it does have that sound of imitating a slipping clutch but saying that It accelerates smoothly and is pretty quick to get off the line.
And there's also another bonus over the manual because the engine is doing about a thousand reps less at highway speeds. That contributes to a free of intrusive noise, including limited wind whistle and tire roar, and efficiency. With fuel consumption improved by nearly 15% over its predecessor, this small slurps just 6.7 liters of unleaded petrol every 100 kilometers.
It a comfortable, refined cruiser, where the Pulsar Ti hits the sweet spot. The suspension has a soft setup, that is more focused on a ride that is and good at absorbing bumps without being at the expense of body control. Yes, there are better cars to steer in the segment in terms of being sharper and more dynamic The thing about the Pulsar is that it's got lots of tire grip, plenty of composure, and the steering is linear and well-weighted.
It's not exactly a small car at 4.6 meters long, though Nissan has also ensured good packaging that's created generous cabin space for all occupants. as well as a massive boot. It may be a bit of an exaggeration to call this a mini limo, but The Nissan Pulsar Ti certainly has more in common with cars from a class above.
And with a return of that badge, expect this car to be big metaphorically too. music
