Nissan Almera

The Nissan Almera is a line of sedans produced by the Japanese manufacturer Nissan since 1995. The early generations, the first generation N15 and the second generation N16, were compact cars in the C segment and were essentially the European export versions of the Nissan Pulsar. Starting with the third generation N17, the Almera was reclassified as a subcompact sedan in the B segment, built on the Nissan V platform, and that version has been marketed under five different nameplates in various international markets. Early production cars used a 1.4 litre GA14DE or 1.6 litre GA16DE petrol engine or a 2.0 litre CD20 diesel, the second generation was offered as a three- or five-door hatch and a four-door saloon, and some cars later received the 1.5 litre dCi diesel from Renault.
