The All-New Nissan Livina: The Extraordinary MPV For The Extraordinary Filipino


From the get-go, the all-new Nissan Livina is no ordinary MPV. While its foray into the lucrative segment comes at the heels of the some of the most established brands in the market, what Nissan had in mind was to offer an experience worthy of every Filipino family’s time and money. The Livina was created with the most careful thought and functional design, aimed at providing the best in comfort and performance. In essence, it is the vehicle to turn every family’s daily journey into a trip worth looking forward to.

We can all agree that our families deserve only the best, especially when it comes to comfort and safety. The all-new Nissan Livina embodies exactly it means to put them first. From the inside-out, there is something special for every member of the household that ticks all the boxes for the perfect family car.



Modern, elegant styling

The all-new Nissan Livina is fitted with the signature Nissan sleekness that is infused with classic details that speak of age-appropriate upkeep. Modern elements such as the V-motion grille, LED parklights and taillights, daytime running lights and fog lights offer a much-needed upgrade to the standard utility MPV look that most of us have become used to. Add in the 16-inch alloy wheels and the Nissan Livina has the stature of a small SUV more than an MPV.



An interior fit for a home

In order to maximize every minute of the day, some of us practically live in our vehicles, turning most family cars into “mobile homes,” even if these may not have the capacity to be. Nissan recognizes that for a vehicle to be an effective and practical choice, it must be a space that you can live in – for at least the next few hours.

The all-new Livina boasts of a spacious interior that can accommodate a total seating capacity of seven. Each row offers generous legroom that can fit the size of children to full-sized adults. For convenience, there are strategically-placed storage spaces, charging ports, and good-sized cargo hold. For added comfort, the Nissan Livina is equipped with Nissan’s exceptional air-cooling system, which is perfect for our persistent tropical weather.


Maximum connectivity

Being on the road on the daily means that being easily reachable is a priority. That said, a hands-free system is the most practical and safe choice. The all-new Nissan Livina offers the most up-to-date in connectivity. Built-in as a standard is a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with an easy-to-navigate LCD display. It is equipped with a seamless Phonelink software and wireless Bluetooth that allows you to enjoy hands-free access to navigation and entertainment while you’re on the road.



Equipped with Nissan Intelligent Mobility

It is not enough for a family car to have the latest in style and tech. A deciding factor for any vehicle is how safe it is for the driver and passengers, especially if it will be moving those closest to your heart. The all-new Nissan Livina understands that when it comes to family, there is no compromise. With this in mind, Nissan designed the Livina to have the Nissan Intelligent Mobility safety system integrated as a standard. This ensures that every Livina comes with special safety features that include Vehicle Dynamic Control, Hill Start Assist, Dual SRS Airbags, Anti-lock Braking System, Traction Control, among others. Making maneuvering easy, it comes with a rear-view camera and parking sensors.


Worry-free, stress-free ownership

The greatest peace of mind in owning a vehicle is not having to worry about surprises down the line – particularly when it comes to maintenance costs. The Livina comes with Nissan’s 5-year warranty program (for the VL variant) and is packaged with its twice-a-year Preventive Maintenance Service. This offers you the flexibility and reassurance that your car is being taken care of, so you can focus on the things that matter the most.

The all-new Nissan Livina was designed with the intent of complementing the multifaceted lives of the Filipino family. As you decided on the next car for your growing brood, consider one that meets the contemporary style of today, is founded on the ideals of simplicity, function, and practicality, and offers the best in comfort, safety, and performance. In a word, that is the all-new Nissan Livina.

Review: 2023 Nissan Livina 1.5 VL


Basically, there are two reasons why automakers would design and build a car. Either they’re doing it for the sheer passion of it, or because they see it as a way to improve their bottom line. More often than not, a car exists somewhere between these two extremes. For Nissan, this could very well be almost their entire line-up from the Almera to the Patrol. In rare occasions, you get something born out of pure passion like the GT-R, the Z, and depending on who you ask, the LEAF. Now, for every so-called “passion project” there’s one whose sole mission is to improve their bottom line, and that’s where the all-new Nissan Livina comes in.
