Nissan is making headlines in the Middle East and beyond with the all new N6 Plug In Hybrid sedan, blending the space of an Altima with a price even lower than the Sunny. Revealed through Nissan’s partnership with Dongfeng, the N6 takes direct aim at budget conscious buyers who want size, tech, and electrified driving, all without breaking the bank. With a starting price around 15,000 dollars, the N6 is positioned to shake up the hybrid market in ways that will make rivals rethink their strategy.
The Nissan N6 stretches out at 4,831 millimeters in length with a wheelbase of 2,815 millimeters, making it nearly the same size as the Altima, but with a price point well below even the Sunny. The cabin offers 570 liters of trunk space, giving families and professionals plenty of room for luggage or shopping. Although the design borrows cues from the electric N7, the N6 stands out with its own character and does not share body panels. This balance of generous size and budget friendly price is almost unheard of in today’s sedan market.
Under the hood, the Nissan N6 uses a plug in hybrid setup that puts electric power front and center. The system produces a total of 208 horsepower and 320 newton meters of torque, allowing for brisk acceleration from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in just 6.8 seconds. The 21.1 kilowatt hour LFP battery delivers up to 180 kilometers of pure electric driving based on the CLTC standard. That means most daily commutes can be done without burning any fuel, while the gasoline engine is there for longer trips or peace of mind.
Nissan offers the N6 in three trims: Pro, Max, and Max Plus. Even the entry Pro model includes 17 inch wheels, a panoramic sunroof, ambient interior lighting, a 10.25 inch digital gauge cluster, and a large 14.6 inch center touchscreen. Step up to the Max Plus and you’ll find a 15.6 inch screen, AI Zero Pressure driver’s seat, 49 pressure sensors, ventilated, heated, and massaging seats with 14 way adjustment, anti motion sickness tech, facial recognition, and a Snapdragon 8775 processor. These features are rarely seen even in sedans costing twice as much, giving the N6 a luxury edge at a value price.
Official pricing starts at 15,500 dollars, with a limited launch offer dropping it to just 15,000 dollars. That makes it 1,400 dollars less than the N7 EV, and a massive 2,400 dollars under the Sunny. Even the top Max Plus trim undercuts the basic Sunny on price. Key local rivals include the Geely Galaxy A7 at 11,500 dollars and the BYD Qin L at 13,600 dollars, but Nissan bets that better build quality, advanced hybrid drive, and premium tech will help the N6 win over buyers looking for something extra without spending extra.
