Servicing follows a 12-month or 18,000-mile interval for diesel models, whichever comes first. Nissan offers fixed-price service plans and extended Care Warranty options beyond the standard 3-year/60,000-mile cover. Chain-driven cam means no belt changes.

Higher grades or packs add forward emergency braking, lane departure warning, traffic-sign recognition, blind-spot warning and driver attention alert.
Keep the car with regular long runs so the diesel particulate filter regenerates cleanly. Use genuine parts at dealers or trusted independents. The body carries a 12-year anti-perforation warranty. Flexible seating and a luggage-board system make daily family use straightforward.
