The Nissan N6 (Chinese: 日产N6; pinyin: Rìchǎn N6) is a range-extended mid-size sedan to be produced by Nissan under the Dongfeng Nissan joint venture.
Overview
[edit]The N6 is the second model in Nissan's N series following the N7. While the N7 is fully electric, the N6 is a plug-in hybrid. It uses similar dimensions as the Maxima but is 2.6 inches shorter in length while it is 2.2 inches taller and 1 inch wider, and uses a slightly smaller wheelbase than the N7.[1]
It was unveiled in Beijing alongside the Teana on October 17, 2025. The N6 shares its platform with the N7.[2] The NR15 engine used in the N6 began production earlier in the month.[3][4]
The N6 launched on December 1, 2025. Nissan is considering selling the N6 in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and some parts of Latin America.[5]
Design
[edit]The N6 uses a similar design to that of the N7. There's a full-width light bar, boomerang-shaped headlights, an illuminated Nissan logo, a closed-off grille, hidden door handles, and the NISSAN wordmark embedded into the rear light bar. The exhaust pipe is also tucked away.[6][1][4]
The use of Nissan's V-Motion grille design continues with the N6.[1][2]
Features
[edit]The features of the N6 vary by trim level. The Pro trim offers an electric sunroof, ambient cabin lighting, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 14.6-inch infotainment screen, meanwhile the Max+ trim uses a larger 15.6-inch touchscreen and Nissan’s AI Zero-Pressure Cloud Carpet Seat for the driver. The seat integrates 49 pressure sensors and provides 14-way electric adjustment, leg and lumbar support, heating, ventilation, and massage functions. All trims use Qualcomm Snapdragon chips and processors, with lower trims using the 8155 processor and higher trims using the 8755 chip.[7]
Powertrain
[edit]The N6 uses a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated inline 4 codenamed NR15 producing 101 horsepower.[8] It is paired with an electric motor producing 208 horsepower and a lithium iron phosphate battery.[2]
The N6's battery size is 21.1 kWh and is claimed to be the largest in its segment.[2]
On a full charge, the N6 can go 112 miles (180 km) on electricity alone. After the battery depletes the NR15 engine kicks in as a generator.[9]
