NISSANTerrano II 3 Doors 1993 - 1996

　　Nissan produced the second generation of the Terrano together with Ford in its Spanish factory, and even though the vehicles were similar to the bolts and fabrics, it was seen as a better version.

　　While both vehicles, the Nissan Terrano and the Ford Maverick, were built on the same assembly line, they offered different package options. That strategy helped the blue-oval brand sell in good quantities, but at the end of the day, Nissan was considered a better off-road machine, at least on the European continent.

　　The Terrano came in an era where the formerly used edged shapes were about to be forgotten, and customers looked more for rounded shapes. That forced the carmaker to create a vehicle with rounded edges and curved lines on the bodywork, which were more obvious on the three-door version. Yet, the headlights still remained squared since they were cheaper to build.

　　Since it sported a shorter wheelbase than its five-door sibling, the interior was more cramped, especially for the passengers seated in the back. At the front, on the other hand, the high-mounted seats and the ample legroom and headroom were highly appreciated by the driver and their side passengers. The dashboard featured a car-like layout with a tall center stack that accommodated the stereo and the HVAC controls. Last but not least, a grab-handle was installed on the passenger's side.

　　The vehicle was built on a body-on-frame platform, with a front independent suspension and a rear axle. It was powered either by a 2.4-liter gasoline engine or a 2.7-liter turbodiesel. All versions were part-time 4x4 with a low-range gear, and the standard transmission was a 5-speed manual. Depending on the market, a 4-speed automatic was added to the options list.
