CnEVPost reported on November 13 that Dongfeng Nissan has opened pre-sales for the NX7 plug-in hybrid SUV in China, with a starting price of RMB 129,900. The model will officially launch on November 27 at the Guangzhou Auto Show.
The NX7 is available in three variants. The 320 Pro starts at RMB 129,900, the 320 Max at RMB 139,900, and the 320 Ultra LiDAR at RMB 149,900.
The NX7 is Dongfeng Nissan's fourth N-series model and its second SUV after the NX8. The NX8 has a suggested retail price range of RMB 159,900 to RMB 209,900, with a starting price of RMB 149,900 after limited-time incentives.
The NX7 measures 4,785 mm long, 1,932 mm wide and 1,665 mm high, with a wheelbase of 2,815 mm.
It uses a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine designed for plug-in hybrid applications, with maximum output of 73 kW, paired with a drive motor with peak power of 170 kW.
All variants come standard with a 40.9 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery from CATL. The battery gives the model a CLTC electric range of 320 kilometers and a combined range of 1,666 kilometers with a full tank and a fully charged battery.
Dongfeng Nissan is offering pre-sale incentives worth up to RMB 35,000. A RMB 999 reservation deposit can be applied as RMB 3,000 toward the purchase price. Clover Green or Wisteria Purple paint, valued at RMB 3,000, is also available at no extra cost across the lineup for a limited time.
The 320 Ultra LiDAR variant gets the Momenta R7 driver-assistance system, jointly customized by Dongfeng Nissan and Momenta. Equipped with LiDAR, it supports highway and urban navigate on autopilot functions.
The system includes intelligent lane changes, passing oncoming vehicles on narrow roads, unprotected left turns and automated parking. Dongfeng Nissan said it enables parking-space-to-parking-space assisted driving.
The company said its parking assistance covers more than 300 scenarios across China and can park the vehicle in spaces just 40 centimeters wider than its body.
Inside, the NX7 features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P chip, the Nissan OS 3.0 infotainment system and a 17.3-inch 3K center display. It also debuts iFlytek's Spark Smart Cockpit 3.0.
Customers who buy the 320 Ultra LiDAR variant also get lifetime access to the Momenta R7 world model, valued at RMB 12,000, and a 55-inch augmented reality head-up display valued at RMB 5,000 at no extra cost. Trade-in subsidies are RMB 5,000 for existing Dongfeng Nissan vehicles and RMB 3,000 for vehicles from other brands.
Dongfeng Nissan also said the NX7 features its third-generation intelligent motion-sickness prevention technology, which can reduce its motion-sickness index by 83%.
The NX7 adds to Nissan's new energy vehicle line-up in China. Earlier in November, the automaker said it planned to introduce five more NEVs in China by the summer of 2027 to cover mainstream market segments.
The N-series lineup currently on sale includes the N7 battery-electric sedan, the N6 plug-in hybrid sedan and the NX8 SUV. With the NX7, Dongfeng Nissan will have two models each in the NEV sedan and SUV segments.
Dongfeng Nissan launched the updated N7 on September 22, lowering its limited-time starting price to RMB 109,900.
Total retail sales of N-series models in October were 4,694 units, down 28.23% year-on-year.
