Nissan Livina: The MPV that makes your family's drive easy

With the Livina, it's about making the drive much easier

Daily life is all about challenges.

Each day, we’re presented with all kinds of problems to solve. And it gets difficult, especially out on the road.

Nowadays, convenience has become a priceless commodity. That’s why the Nissan Livina exists: it’s the family vehicle that is all about making your drive easy.

How does it do that? Let us count the ways.

Easy To Admire

There was a time when multi-purpose vehicles were boxy things that were very utilitarian, but things have evolved. Customers want a vehicle that’s pleasing to the eye, no matter where they drive it. That’s something Nissan’s designers took to heart with the all-new Livina.

The vehicle features smooth, elegant lines from every angle, especially with that prominent V-Motion grille up front; a Nissan signature. The chrome grille is flanked by two sophisticated LED daytime running lights up top. Yes, the slim lights are DRLs; the headlights are actually just below just like the Nissan Juke that has proved very popular here.

That striking and elegant look also translates inside, where Nissan upped the feel of the cabin with a tasteful application of colors such as brown and beige. And if you’re looking at the VL variant, you can even have the Livina with luxurious leather seats.

Whether you’re looking at the Livina while it’s in your garage or if you’re sitting in it, this is an MPV that’s easy to admire.

Easy To Load

Has your family ever had to go out of town and had to rent a bigger vehicle because you didn’t have enough seats in your sedan? Or have you ever had to pay extra for delivery at the appliance store because that new 50” smart TV doesn’t fit in your trunk?

With the Nissan Livina, you can do away with all of those hassles about space.

Bring the whole family along with the Livina because you’ve got 7 seats available and there’s still space for bags for the trip. The Livina also has one of the easiest third rows you can access because the second row folds and tumbles to make ingress and egress even easier.

If seating isn’t what you need, then the Livina is perfect for you too. The third row folds down flat to give you 5 seats and a lot of cargo space. There are even compartments under the baseboard behind the third row for items you want to keep away from prying eyes. But if maximum cargo space is what you need, then you can also fold the second row to create a continuous flat load space.

You can also mix and match by folding down or tumbling seats as you see fit to be able to carry long or tall items in your Livina. There are even a variety of compartments all around for your drinks, small pocket items, phones, and even a shoe tray under the front passenger seat. In this MPV it’s just so easy; it’s all up to you to maximize it for your needs.

Easy To Enjoy

There’s plenty to enjoy in the Nissan Livina, and it starts with the infotainment system. Most of the variants have the 7” touchscreen display audio system which has Phonelink, Bluetooth, USB, Aux in, and up to 6 speakers depending on the variant.

If you need to keep your devices charged (of course you do), then the Livina makes it easy. There are a variety of USB ports that you can hook up to, or you can bring your own USB adapter and plug in to the various 12-volt outlets all around the cabin. No matter where you sit, you’ve got access to power.

But really, what’s enjoyable in the Livina is the impressive power of Nissan’s airconditioning systems. The front coolers are more than enough to drop the temperatures in the cabin quickly, but don’t fret if you’re seated in the back because you’ve got a rear cooler system with vents on the ceiling. Yes, even in summer, it’s easy to stay cool in the Livina.

Easy To Drive

The heart of any vehicle has to be the powertrain, and the Livina has one of the most proven engine and transmission combinations in the industry.

That beating heart is a 1.5-liter Twin Cam 16-Valve Inline-4 engine. It makes 105 PS at 6000 rpm and 141 Newton-meters of torque at 4000 rpm; plenty for a vehicle of this size. If you want the convenience of two-pedal driving, Nissan has a 4-speed automatic available in the VL, VE and EL variants. If you want to do the shifting yourself, you can opt for the 5-speed manual in the E variant.

The priority of any family vehicle is safety, and Nissan makes sure you and your loved ones are kept safe in the Livina. All variants of the Livina has anti-lock brakes, dual SRS airbags, and each seat has safety belts. You can be assured that young toddlers will have a proper and safe spot because the Livina has ISOFIX anchors.

That’s just the beginning though as those who opt for the VL or VE will have features such as hill start assist, a reverse camera, rear parking sensors, Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) and the Traction Control System (TCS). With the Livina, you can drive confidently.

Easy To Own

The ownership experience is something that Nissan focuses on with their entire lineup, and the Livina is a shining example.

All variants are priced to give families true value for their money, with the range starting with the Livina 1.5 E 5-MT which retails for PHP 1,029,000, followed by the Livina 1.5 EL 4-AT which is priced at PHP 1,109,000, and then the Livina 1.5 VE 4-AT with a PHP 1,149,000 SRP. For those that want all the options available, then the Livina 1.5 VL 4-AT is the one, and it retails for PHP 1,209,000.

Buying is just the start though, as Nissan ensures the Livina is easy to own. Nissan’s preventive maintenance schedule for the Livina means owners only need to come in twice a year. That means less time spent for service, more time enjoying your Livina. And if you opt for the VL, Nissan covers your vehicle for an extended 5-year, 150,000 kilometer warranty.

Whichever Livina you pick, you can be assured that life is made easier. This new MPV has the style you want, the versatility you need, the convenience you demand, the drive and safety you’ll appreciate, and the ownership experience that makes it even more enjoyable.
