Purchased a Nissan Note e-POWER NISMO S! - Reasons for purchase, deciding factors, etc.

Considering a commuter vehicle

For a little while now, my husband has been saying, "I need some kind of used car for my own commute.He said, "I'm not going to be able to do that. My husband's previous commuter car was "Volkswagen GolfBut last May, the Golf was replaced by a manual BMW 320, and I started driving that every day, so my husband inevitably had to commute to work in a Porsche.

Of course she enjoys being able to commute to work every day in her Porsche, but it is a 50 km round trip from her home to her husband's office.It's a waste of more and more mileage just commuting to work.My husband says this at every opportunity," she said.(It's 1,000 kilometers in a month, right?)The new commuter car is now in the process of being purchased.

My husband is a candidate for a commuter car.

The best thing is that the current version of the "BMW 5 SeriesI love this car. The one time I test drove one, it was luxurious, drove well, and I felt BMW was back after a brief hiatus. However, the 5 series is a bit big and maybe too big for commuting. If I want something more compact and easy to drive, I'm thinking about the Nissan Note e-POWER NISMO or the Mazda 3...

and so on.

Nissan Note e-POWER NISMO S

Then this year, my husband went to test drive a Mazda3 by himself, and he also checked out used car websites every day to see if there was a car that looked good.(We will have a test drive review of the Mazda 3 in a later article)Just the other day, a very good condition "Nissan Note e-POWER NISMO SI found "The

I contacted them immediately and found that someone was already in talks, so I temporarily gave up on the purchase, but they immediately contacted my husband to tell him that the person had not purchased it that day, and when he went to see it the next day, he made an immediate decision.

By the way, I asked why the person in the business meeting didn't buy it.I don't want to come to see the car and decide on the same day... I want to think about it for a day and call you.He said, "I'm sorry. The sales person said, "That makes it likely that the next person waiting will decide and not be able to buy.He told them repeatedly that he would "still think about it for a day.

Afterwards, the store was called "I still decided to buy it.She called me and said, "I'm sorry," but at that time, the business rights had already been transferred to her husband.

Well, well...I guess a good used car that hits the spot will sell really quickly if you don't make a quick decision. By the way, my husband is

It took me less than five minutes to decide. I don't have the feeling that it's unusual to make a quick decision when buying a car. I think I'm the type of person who decides on anything as soon as I think it's a good idea.

He said.

My husband purchased a2018, 3.900 km, with navigation system, fully equipped with factory options, rated 6 points as degree, A both inside and out.This is a very good condition "Note e-POWER NISMO S" of the "Note e-POWER NISMO S". This was offered for sale for 2,030,000 yen.

My husband was looking for an "S" in dark metal gray that did not have the Recaro seats, so it was a perfect fit.

I asked my husband what was the deciding factor in his purchase.

Last year, theI bought a normal note e-power for my mother and drove it.I was surprised at how good it was. First of all, the legs are not squishy, and the acceleration and smoothness of the motor are very pleasant. One-pedal driving is easy and natural, and it is very easy to shift the load. And unlike other hybrids, the motor's torque is not suppressed to make it feel more like an engine car.The fact that the torque characteristics of the motor are conversely used as a selling point is favorable.
Well, there are many opinions about the car, such as the lack of usability of the interior, high speed fuel consumption, noise, etc., but I personally don't care about those things at all, and that's not what I'm looking for in a car. I don't care about that at all, and that is not what I am looking for in a car.Whether it is fun to run or not.From a "I'm not sure how I feel about this" point of view, it was outstanding in its class. It was also one of the few cars in this class that made me want to drive long distances.
This time it is the NISMO version of the NISMO, and since it is an "S" version, it has plenty of power. I chose this car because I think it is one of the best in terms of resale and cost performance.

He said. I see.

Since we have already obtained a garage permit, the Note will be arriving at our house sooner than expected, but I will post a review on my blog soon. Anyway, this brings the total number of cars in our house to six... I feel that our family's car life has taken an unexpected turn since the beginning of the new year.

    I have never driven the NISMO, but the acceleration is good even with the stock e-Power.

    Nissan's vice president Mr. Hoshino seemed to have said in an interview, "Our engineers, who are well versed in the enjoyment of cars, have designed the acceleration curve curve and the rise of e-POWER," so that's what he meant, apart from the absolute acceleration power. Engineer Tamura also said that he has taken the acceleration G waveform of the GT-R and incorporated it into the actual car, and I am sure that the nismoS will be very close to that.

    It would be fun if you could try a ride comparison with the GT-R sometime in the future.

      >"Our engineers, who know the joys of cars inside and out, have designed the acceleration curve curve and the rise of the e-POWER."
      I see! That's great. It sure feels great, doesn't it?

      It will be interesting to compare the NISMO S with the GT-R. I also wonder how different the NISMO S is from the stock one.
      I will report on this in my blog.
