Next-gen Nissan Serena's rear, interior leaked in brochure images
Will go on sale in Japan in August 2016.
The current, fourth generation Nissan Serena, introduced in Japan in 2010, is about to be discontinued. The fifth generation Nissan Serena will reportedly be launched in the company's home market in August 2016. Soon after leaked images of its front-end appeared, the next-gen Nissan Serena has been completely leaked through brochure images that have surfaced prematurely on the web.
The brochure images have leaked both exterior and interior of the fifth generation Serena. Along with a remarkably more expressive front-end and a curvaceous profile, the Nissan Serena adopts a more conventional rear-end. Along with new taillights, a new spoiler and a redesigned tailgate and bumper round-up changes at the rear.
Like the exterior, the interior is also completely new. Redesigned dashboard, instrument panel, centre console, HVAC vents and door panels and a new, flat-bottomed steering wheel refresh the interior. The infotainment system seems to feature a larger screen than the one in the fourth generation model. There's also a Rider package available that brings sportier exterior and interior in white or black theme.
