Luxury for the Emotions
More than smooth-riding modern luxury,
Cefiro has the power to give you a soul-
stirring driving experience. The VQ engine
series that includes the 3.5-liter VQ35DE
and 2.3-liter VQ23DE engines has won
Ward's Auto World's prestigious "Ten Best
Engines Award" for eleven years in succes-
sion. The top-of-the-line 3.5-liter engine
provides greater output and torque than
any of its competitors. And Cefiro's other
two engine choices also provide the
effort less power you want for relaxed
dr iv ing in the city or on the highway.

Rea l -wor ld sa fe ty
At Nissan, driver and passenger safety is
always the primary consideration.
This philosophy is given concrete form
in our exclusive "Real-world safety" concept.
It begins with "Information Safety" designed to
help the driver anticipate hazardous situations
and make the correct decisions to
prevent them developing. Next is
"Control Safety" engineered to maintain
vehicle control and allow the driver to
avoid emergency situations.
And finally there's "Impact Safety" to
reduce the risk of injury from the impact
as well as the possibility of secondary or
aggravated injuries in an accident.
Disc brakes
Large, all-wheel disc brakes – ventilated at the front and solid
at the rear – deliver sure, confidence-inspiring braking to match
Cefiro's powerful performance.
NEO VQ23DEThe 2.3-liter NEO VQ23DE
engine with CVTC and ETC
offers quiet, smooth V6
power combined with ex-
cellent fuel economy.
NEO QR20DE
The 2.0-liter NEO QR20DE engine provides the ideal balance
between fuel economy and plentiful power and torque.
NEO VQ35DE
High-power V6 NEO VQ35DE 3.5-liter engine with CVTC
(Continuously Variable-valve Timing Control) and ETC (Electronic
Throttle Chamber) delivers effortless performance to satisfy the
most demanding driver, combined with surprisingly low fuel
consumption.
Smooth-riding suspension
Strut-type suspension at the front and multi-link layout at the rear
deliver a smooth, comfortable ride along with superior steering
stability.
Zone body/SRS airbag
Cefiro's impact-absorbing body featuring crushable zones and a
safety restraint zone works together with multiple SRS (Supplemental
Restraint System) airbags to avoid or reduce injuries in an acci-
dent. Of course, seatbelts should be worn at all times.
Minimum turning radius
A minimum turning radius of just 5.3 meters makes Cefiro
one of the most maneuverable cars in its class.
High-mounted LED rear stop lamp
The high-mounted LED rear
stop lamp gives following driv-
ers clear warning whenever the
brakes are applied.
Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS)
AFS automatically directs the
headlights' beam according to
steering inputs, illuminating your
way through curves or when
turning to clearly light your path.
Bixenon headlamps
High-power Bixenon headlamps
(option) feature an automatic
levelizer and provide greater
illumination than conventional
halogen headlamps.
Active head restraints
In a collision, active head re-
straints instantly move forward
to support the head and reduce
load on the neck.
LED rear lamps
LED rear lamps are clearly visible
from a distance alerting follow-
ing drivers to your presence at
night.
New muffler cutter
A new chrome muffler cutter is
the perfect complement to
Cefiro's sophisticated rear styling,
adding one more design accent.
VDC (Vehicle Dynamics Control) helps the driver stay in control
and avoid danger in emergency situations. The system includes
TCS (Traction Control System) and Brake LSD (Limited Slip Differ-
ential) to automatically prevent sideways slides when changing
lanes or negotiating curves on slippery road surfaces.
With VDCSensors detect lateral wheel movement allowing VDC to manage engine output and brake force on each wheel to maintain stability and control.
Without VDCSudden lane change causes the rear to swing sideways; on a tight curve the front wheels lose grip and the car is unable to stay on the desired course.

Inspired cockpit design
The cockpit is more than just visually appealing: every aspect is
carefully thought out to deliver ultimate convenience and ease of
use. The information center gives you immediate visual confirmation
of air conditioning settings, outside temperature, audio system and
time, as well as allowing you to monitor the drive computer. Fine-vi-
sion instrumentation with high-contrast white illumination assures
at-a-glance visibility, and the large speedometer is further en-
hanced by a silver-colored ring.
Auto driving position
Each of the two supplied intelligent keys contains two driving
position memories. The seat automatically moves into its memo-
rized position ready for you to simply sit down and drive. What's
more, when you turn off the engine, the driver's seat automatically
slides 40mm rearwards to give easier entry and exit.
Keyless entry
The mechanical key's remote control function allows you to lock
and unlock doors at the press of a button on the key tag.
Power ottoman-style front passenger seat
The optional ottoman-style leg rest powers smoothly up to support
the lower legs. Its position can be freely adjusted so the front
passenger can find the ideal position for comfort on the long haul.
Large luggage capacity
Careful design for the 4-link hinges on the trunk lid makes virtually
all of the trunk space available for luggage. Huge capacity means
you can stow up to five golf bags as well as three sports bags.
Intelligent keyCefiro's intelligent key features a smoothly rounded design for
convenient carrying, and also incorporates a panic alarm. Door
lock/unlock and trunk open are
equipped with sensors to detect
the intelligent key within a range
of 80cm, so you can lock or
unlock the doors and open the
trunk without taking the key out of
your pocket or bag. Ignition can be
switched on or off without a key – the
center slot is for the mechanical key.
8-way power seat
Standard-equipment 8-way driver's
power seat with lifter lets you achieve
the ideal position for driving in relaxed
comfort. A 4-way passenger's power
seat is optionally available.
