Unique way of using the car
I'm not afraid of your jokes. In the first few days of using the car, my Tiida was basically alone in the parking lot. Except for occasional business trips, it was rarely seen in the public. He made an appearance on the occasion, so that his colleagues laughed and said: "I have heard about the practice of using the game as a substitute, but this is the first time I heard about it! Really due to work.
But as soon as I have time, I go to the parking lot to see if my car has been stolen or touched, and by the way, I will also take a look at the unique shape of the Tiida. In fact, Tiida's willow-leaf-style lights and high-roof design are not the first of Nissan's creations. In the early years, European cars also had similar styles, but Tiida had special lines in some seemingly ordinary positions, such as the tailgate cover, plus " The color rendering exclusive to Tiida is particularly easy to impress.
In order to highlight its distinctive personality, Tiida is more diverse in body color selection than the sedan Tiida, but practice has proved that it is best not to choose white, black and other colors that easily bury the beautiful curves of the body. Dilute the innate fashion and vitality of Tiida.
Exercise is not the original intention
Get out of the dark parking lot, bask in the warm sun, blow the soft breeze, the fashionable Tiida quickly adapts to the busy rhythm of the city, and the modern city The atmosphere is very consistent. From passers-by looking at it from time to time to silently nodding, I found that driving a Tiida has a kind of pride that is easily recognized.
Like all hatchbacks, the Tiida's handling feels more direct than its sibling, the Tiida, but that doesn't mean it's following the sporty hatchback line that European automakers are keen on. On general roads, Tiida's suspension conveys a wealth of road information. You can say that the suspension is not high-end enough, but it can also be said to have a sense of movement or activity. Fast in and out of corners, the suspension provides decent support, and the tires have enough grip to accommodate your little indulgence.
However, if it's a little more crazy, it will exceed the Tiida's ability. In fact, its body has a high center of gravity, and the swing of the body when cornering seems to deliberately suppress the impulsive heart of young drivers. Although the steering wheel of the electronic power steering is fast and light, and has a high directivity, the road surface feeling is average, and it always makes people feel that every corner is too easy and lacks reality. During this period, many colleagues in the editorial department got on the train with fighting spirit, but most of them returned disappointed. This is not to blame for it, after all, Tiida is a family car that is comfortable and practical.
The benefit of reduced sports performance is improved comfort, and relaxation and driving with a peaceful mind are the habits that Tiida owners should have. From this point of view, there is no essential difference between Tiida and Yida in terms of positioning.
The essence of finding happiness
Earlier, my colleagues in the editorial department said that they needed to change the car, and Yida, which was very consistent with its price positioning, was the first to be excluded. The reason is that for him, who has always played modification and off-roading, he has always been looking for models based on his own standards, and is rarely moved and assimilated by cars because of some advantages. It sounded like a bit of machismo. At first, I also agreed with his concept of playing with cars, but during the time I spent with Tiida, my position was quietly and silently changing.
Every time you enter the car, a strong home atmosphere blows your face: the simple and elegant light interior tones, the slightly inclined center console panel, and the sofa-like spacious seat make people escape from the hustle and bustle and feel the warmth of home . It is undeniable that since the beginning of the Teana, Nissan has paid great attention to the selection of materials in the cabin. It will not use too many function buttons and bright-colored materials to show how high-tech it is, but use shapes and matte-colored materials as much as possible to achieve the purpose The purpose of pleasing people, coupled with the high body of the Tiida to create a large space, makes people feel superior like being in a high-end community.
In the cabin, the Tiida has extraordinary advantages: the rear seats are adjustable, not only can move forward and backward, but also the inclination angle can be changed under the convenient operation of the mechanism, which seems to be better than the similar mechanism of Toyota Reiz See more brilliant. So much so that every time a friend gets in the car, I always start from the back (seat), judging how much space and how extravagant it is. This is the legroom treatment only available for millions of models!
Change in mentality
Tiida is such a car. The harmonious and unified driving experience will make people make compromises unexpectedly, stop being arrogant, and learn to experience the delicateness of life. In daily use, the design of thicker seat cushion and higher body makes the actual sitting position naturally higher than that of ordinary cars, and the good vision makes people feel comfortable. It's just that the design of the seat makes the back of the head lack support, and leaning back will make the hands holding the steering wheel a little farther away, which is very awkward. When you tie the headrest of a colleague up, the degree of compliance is just right.
I found a problem from this meticulous deviation: the good advantages of cars produced under the platform shared by Nissan and Renault can be inherited and carried forward, but at the same time the shortcomings of engineering design may also be infinitely magnified. It is essential to improve different models. For example, the size of the steering wheel is too thick, and it is easy to get tired when you hold your hands tightly for a long time. The Tiida steering wheel has a new concave and convex position designed according to the shape of the fingers at the 2 o'clock and 10 o'clock positions. Let it go, it feels a lot better.
In terms of mechanics, Tiida ostensibly takes the Sven route. The 109bhp 1.6-liter engine is coupled with a four-speed gearbox with a mild feel like a CVT, and the daily driving is gentle and elegant, and it is easy to give passengers the impression of lack of power at first!
But this is only happening at the beginning, and only for passengers. Because as a driver, you can feel the brisk and continuous power when you lightly step on the accelerator. This all-aluminum engine is not the type that likes high revs. You don’t need to push its speed deliberately, let it be between 2000~3000rpm, and the abundant torque can find a reasonable foothold. The slight push back makes me feel On Shennan Road in the early hours of the morning, I smelled a little bit of a small sports car.
As a result, I came to a conclusion that whether the Tiida's power is strong or not depends entirely on your expectations for the throttle response. If you try to squeeze power with your right foot, it probably won't give you excitement; but as long as you relax, its power will surprise you every time. Over time, this delicate communication with Tiida's throttle has also been extended to the perception of other things, and I have become more delicate in observing and thinking about people and things around me. This can be said that Tiida taught me.
There are still faults
In addition to the adjustable rear seat, Tiida's intelligent key system (I-KEY) has also been highly praised by us. Placing it within an effective radius, the door lock and the engine can be opened by pressing a button, which is definitely one of the technologies that must be possessed when buying Tiida. But at the same time, such a convenient smart key is really easy to forget.
After the interview at the Guangzhou Auto Show, everyone was so busy that they took their cars and went their separate ways. But when I picked up the Tiida from my colleague and drove two high-speed intersections, I suddenly remembered that I only took the car from him, not the car keys!
What I once feared actually happened! It's also my fault for not paying attention to the little red warning light flashing on the dashboard. Take away the key after hitting the car, the Tiida can be started, as long as it does not turn off the engine, there is no way! I can only turn around and find my I-KEY in the face of the rolling traffic in Guangzhou... In order to avoid such reckless behavior, I will take the key to open the door every three or five days to remind myself. Especially when you lend your car to others, remember to get the car back together with the "invisible key".
As a family car, the Tiida has been criticized for its unreasonable design in some storage compartments. There are many places for placing scattered items in the front and rear of the car, but the space is often "deep and narrow", and it is deliberately bought when storing some drinks. Small bottles can only be put down. When encountering toll invoices, coins, etc., you have to reach out and dig for a long time to search for them. It really loses the style of a fashionable car.
Happiness set sail
Memories will always be occupied by happy times. It has been a while since I returned to Tiida, but the people, things and things I have experienced with this golden Tiida are moved together. The past scenes are still in my heart, never forgotten. Tiida is such a car with rich emotions, it can teach you how to cherish every extraordinary moment in the prosperous world; it can let you try to slow down the pace of life, and use the delicate touch that has been buried for a long time to experience the happiness of life . We may not be able to keep the time, but at least for our own happiness, we can grasp it with both hands.
