Nissan AD Wagon 2007 Review

The Nissan AD Wagon is a compact station wagon known for its reliability and practicality. It’s been a popular choice in many markets for its versatility as a family and commercial vehicle. The 2007 Nissan AD Wagon is part of the third generation (Y12 series), which commenced in 2006. This generation continued the AD Wagon’s tradition of offering straightforward, utilitarian transportation.

Exterior Design

The 2007 Nissan AD Wagon featured a functional and no-frills exterior design. It was built with a focus on utility rather than style, characterized by its boxy shape and simple lines. The ground clearance was around 150mm, which is adequate for urban roads and moderate rural paths, typical of Sri Lankan driving conditions.

Interior Design

Inside, the AD Wagon offered a basic but practical interior. The focus was on maximizing space and utility. The boot space was generous, particularly when the rear seats were folded down, making it suitable for carrying larger loads, a common requirement in Sri Lanka for both family and business use.

Performance

Powered typically by a 1.5-liter or 1.6-liter engine, the AD Wagon provided modest performance. It was well-suited for city driving and capable of handling daily tasks with reasonable fuel efficiency, an important consideration in the Sri Lankan market.

Ride Quality

The ride quality was utilitarian, with a suspension set up to handle load carrying rather than comfort. It was adequate for urban driving and short trips, but longer journeys might be less comfortable compared to more passenger-oriented vehicles.

Safety & Technology

Safety and technology features in the 2007 model were basic, in line with its utilitarian nature. It included standard safety features for the time, but lacked the advanced technology and safety equipment found in more modern vehicles.
