That's a Nissan Cefiro, sold as the Nissan Teana in India.

wanderlustindia · 5th September 2009, 19:49

Certainly the Nissan Teana!

its correct that a similar car sold in india is Nissan Teana and sold elsewhere in the world as Nissan Cefiro.

but this particular car in the photos is neither of the above!

harishnayak · 5th September 2009, 19:59

Is it the Cedia? Just a wild guess.

grandkruizer · 5th September 2009, 20:01

Thats the Renault Safrane. Its not available in Japan.

The Nissan Cefiro / Teana sells as the Nissan Maxima in UAE ... and probably the rest of the Gulf too.

However it's a different car from the Maxima sold in the US.

and the winner is..grandkruizer!

this indeed is Renault Safrane, it shares the same platform with nissan vehicles as Nissan and Renault have tie ups!

FourWheelDrift · 5th September 2009, 20:15

I stand corrected. This is not the Nissan Maxima sold in UAE.

grandkruizer is absolutely right. It's the Renault Safrane V6.

You could atleast state which of the two posts without model names is the correct make.

If its a Suzuki then it might be a Jimmy or a whizkid. I don't think its a Toyota or a Jeep since both don't make any vehicles of that size.

agspins · 5th September 2009, 21:46

I think its 70's suzuki jimny lj60

AyAn! · 5th September 2009, 22:01

Definitely a Safrane! BTW one can clearly see the Renault logo on the rims!
