What owners and experts like about the Nissan Tekton
City drivability
Strongly positivebased on 8 reviews
“this 1.3 L turbo petrol DCT engine held up quite well across all the three days across mixed terrains, broken roads, steep inclines, well paved roads and the performance was something quite adequate”
Handling
Strongly positivebased on 6 reviews
“जिस तरीके से Nissan ने इसकी ट्यूनिंग की है और जो ओवरऑल गाड़ी की ट्यूनिंग है इन टर्म्स ऑफ ड्राइविंग इन टर्म्स ऑफ सस्पेंशन हैंडलिंग ये गाड़ी यार एकदम नेक्स्ट लेवल है”
Driving position
Strongly positivebased on 5 reviews
“the first thing that I must talk about is the driving position. It is actually spot-on. Right in my field of vision is the bonnet, and that really adds a good degree of confidence, especially for newer drivers”
Engine refinement
Strongly positivebased on 5 reviews
“थ्री सिलेंडर से कोई मतलब दिक्कत वाली बात नहीं है, बिकॉज़ द रिफाइनमेंट ऑफ़ दिस इंजन इज़ वेरी गुड... इसमें ना वो सीटी वाली आवाज आती है और बहुत ही अच्छा है”
Connected car features
Strongly positivebased on 5 reviews
“the navigation you can have it directly on the instrument cluster and you don't really have to use it through the infotainment system. I used it throughout the instrument cluster”
Boot space
Strongly positivebased on 6 reviews
“Behind this electrically operable tailgate is a massive massive boot... In terms of boot space, it is 518 L, which is simply class best and ideal for those long drives”
Where the Nissan Tekton falls short
Not every point below is a serious flaw. Some are mixed opinions where reviewers disagreed, and the label says which.
Turbo response
Generally negativebased on 11 reviews
“this engine is not completely devoid of turbo lag. Compared to the 1 L turbo, lag is well-contained. Still, there's no getting away from the fact that turbo lag is not completely eliminated in this one”
Rear seat space
Mixed reviewsbased on 7 reviews
“6 फीट से नीचे-नीचे वाले लोगों को कंफर्ट मिल पाएगा। अगर हाइट आपकी 6 फीट या उसके ऊपर है तो वहां पर थोड़ा सा आपको परेशानी हो सकती है... तीन लोग प्रॉपर्ली बैठ नहीं पाएंगे”
Highway overtaking
Mixed reviewsbased on 6 reviews
“on some of the steeper inclines it did seem to struggle a little. Part of that could just be the altitude and part of it is probably the gearbox holding back deliberately to avoid overworking itself”
