The Nissan N6 is a plug-in hybrid mid-size sedan to be produced by Nissan under the Dongfeng Nissan joint venture.
Overview
[edit]The N6 is the second model in Nissan's N series following the N7. While the N7 is fully electric, the N6 is a plug-in hybrid. It is similar in size to the now-discontinued Maxima.[1]
It was unveiled in Beijing alongside the Teana Plus on October 17, 2025. The N6 shares its platform with the N7.[2] The NR15 engine used in the N6 began production earlier in the month.[3][4]
Design
[edit]The N6 uses a similar design to that of the N7. There's a full-width light bar, boomerang-shaped headlights, an illuminated Nissan logo, a closed-off grille, hidden door handles, and the NISSAN wordmark embedded into the rear light bar. The exhaust pipe is also tucked away.[5][1][4]
The use of Nissan's V-Motion grille design continues with the N6.[1][2]
Powertrain
[edit]The N6 uses a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated inline 4 codenamed NR15 producing 101 horsepower.[6] It is paired with an electric motor producing 208 horsepower and a lithium iron phosphate battery.[2]
The N6's battery size is 21.1 kWh and is claimed to be the largest in its segment.[2]
