Just yesterday, Edaran Tan Chong Motor Sdn Bhd (ETCM) introduced the all-new Nissan Grand Livina Tuned by Impul. This morning’s launch is also the world debut of the only Grand Livina to be tuned by a world renowned Japanese motorsports specialist, IMPUL Motor Racing Development.
The IMPUL parts fitted onto this new Grand Livina you see here are:
1. IMPUL Complete Aerokit
The complete aerokit exudes visual drama and dynamic presence with its front grille, front and rear bumper spoiler, side skirts and the Impul trademark rear wing spoiler.
2. IMPUL Sports Suspension System
The suspension system consisting of upgraded shock absorbers and springs are fine tuned with a 25mm lowered ride height to reduce unwanted roll and pitch for optimised handling and to enrich steering feel of the Nissan Grand Livina.
3. IMPUL Blast II Exhaust Muffler
A high quality stainless steel exhaust muffler in a polished finish and etched Impul logo tail pipe. It contributes to improve engine response with a sporty note and also complements the overall aesthetics of the exterior.
4. 17″ IMPUL Aura SX-10 Alloy Wheels with Dunlop Formula D 01 205/45 R17 Tyres
These new wheels come in polished finish are designed for a luxurious feel. These wheels are fabricated with the IMPUL New Super Cast process that results in a 20 to 30% weight saving in comparison to conventional processes thereby delivering the latest in wheel design technology and a commitment to higher quality and safety.
The Nissan Grand Livina Tuned By IMPUL version is offered at a cost of only RM10,500 above the standard Grand Livina.
With the exception of the alloy wheels, all IMPUL Grand Livina parts are produced in Malaysia. Quality and reliability of these parts are assured with the appropriate cost competitiveness. Besides offering customers great value, the competitive pricing has put the locally built parts up for consideration to be exported to other ASEAN markets, China and South Africa at a later time.
The pricing of the new Nissan Grand Livina Tuned By IMPUL starts at RM95,586 for the 1.6MT Comfort, onto RM99,386 for the 1.6AT Comfort and finally RM108,086 for the 1.8AT Comfort variant.
Also at the event – We get a very very rare and exclusive chance to interview IMPUL President, team boss of Team Calsonic IMPUL, former Formula One driver and now entreprenuer. We get his thoughts on the new R35, racing in Super GT and his closest competitor. More on this once I’m done transcribing it but meanwhile visit www.impul.com.my for more information.
