72.587 -> It is really hot these days! Good thing, it's cold here in Nissan.
76.831 -> This Nissan 370Z is as hot as the weather today, so just chill and relax, Ka-Tandems!
85.111 -> With the heat of the weather, it's so easy to get hot-headed especially when stuck in the traffic.
89.856 -> Let's also remember that heats up together with our grumpiness.
93.997 -> Let's also give our cars a cooler using some quality coolant, for summer to just be chill.
100.174 -> Overheat is equal to getting stalled, so let's not take risks with coolant. Only use Prestone.
106.303 -> There are different kinds of coolants. The easiest sign to spot is by just opening your radiator. When you open it, whatever the color is in there is the one that you can just add.
118.971 -> Like with Prestone, there's red, green, and blue.
123.024 -> Remember the name that's already tested by time. Prestone! #AtEaseWithPrestone
133.163 -> 1.5-liter engine, spacious, and automatic. If that's what you want and you want to save up, you have to see this.
141.84 -> Clean and curve designs in the front. All curves start from the bumper and flowing backward.
148.614 -> The grill to the bumper has an hourglass design.
151.306 -> And accentuated by a matte black finish.
154.619 -> The headlights are big and extended to the side.
157.574 -> All the lights are Halogen. This is the dim and bright, and this is the signal light.
162.224 -> The look on the sides is straightforward. The character lines are straight, the door handles are chrome. The side mirrors are power-adjustable, but manual-folding.
171.265 -> There are repeaters on the fenders on the front.
173.79 -> The gas tank is on the driver's side.
176.1 -> The mags are alloy and the wheel size is
181.101 -> The front has disk brakes and the rear has drum brakes.
188.322 -> This is what I liked the most with Almera. The back has a unique shape, it's like a widened face of toothless.
195.501 -> There's a defogger and third brake light
198 -> The taillights also look unique, which are out to the side.
201.814 -> This is the brake light, reflector, signal light, and reverse light.

225.757 -> You wanna see the interior of this, right? But wait up, look at this first.
230.12 -> At the back, the key of Nissan Almera just looks ordinary. It just has a big emblem.
235.486 -> But on the front, there are lots of buttons. There's an unlock, lock, trunk opener, and alarm button.
312.391 -> The interior is silly, right? There are no straight lines, just curves and circles. It looks comfortable.
319.455 -> The adjustment of the steering wheel is only tilt, no telescopic.
322.868 -> Our seat can be adjusted forward and backward and can be reclined.
327.446 -> For the space test, my knee completely fits in
330.215 -> Our headroom is around half a span. Let's check at the back.
334.578 -> I'm 5'8 tall but 2 fists can still fit in.
340.946 -> The headroom is a little bit smaller, probably over one inch.
345.38 -> Let's check the back.
347.068 -> Do we have something to fit in here? Let's see.
351.602 -> The trunk is spring-loaded. And the space is OK, even a suitcase and lots of bags can fit in here. But the question, how many G-tests will fit in here? Let's see.
368.401 -> It's Kalikot Time!
372.801 -> Let's start with the top, it has a light in the middle, it also has map lights. The visor only has a mirror on the driver's side.
380.577 -> The rearview mirror has a night and day switch.
383.699 -> The sidings are all hard plastics but the design is the one that makes it look soft because it's all curves.
391.261 -> The opener of the door has a hanging handle so it's easy to pull.
394.501 -> The switches are solid. It has a bottle holder and a compartment at the bottom.
399.193 -> The steering wheel is Urethane but to be honest, it feels like leather because it has a soft texture.
406.682 -> It doesn't have a lot of buttons but it has an airbag and horn.
410.4 -> The instrument cluster has complete information. The design simple, the tachometer is on the left side, the speedometer is in the middle, and the other information is on the right.
420.205 -> On the left knee side is the adjustment for the electronic side mirrors. below this is the gas and hood openers.
428.243 -> This is it, the dashboard. It's all curves and there really are no straight lines.
433.537 -> So you will think that it's soft, but it's all durable plastic. Hard, but you're sure that it will last.
440.383 -> The AC vents on the side are round and omnidirectional. In the middle are just regular ones.
445.221 -> The infotainment system is 6.75 inches. It has a Bluetooth phone function and Bluetooth music. It also has a USB and auxiliary.
453.26 -> Below, the controls of the AC's are all manual, all are rotary dials.
457.074 -> Below again, there is a compartment and 2 cupholders.
460.458 -> The shifter, you guessed it, still round. Its button is on the left side. Below that, it has an overdrive button.
468.468 -> There's park, reverse, neutral, drive, 2, and 1. The shift lock is on the right side.
473.312 -> The handbrake is manual. There's a cellphone compartment on the right side and a cupholder on the back.
478.94 -> On the passenger side of the dashboard, we have an airbag, an open compartment, auxiliary and USB, glove compartment, and below that, there's a lighter that can also be used as a power supply.
490.511 -> The seat is simple. It's soft, cloth and breathable. It's not hot.
495.249 -> The appeal of the gray and beige interior, it's like it's soft and comfortable. But of course, we will find that out later when we do a test drive.
503.287 -> Let's check the second row.
504.777 -> Apart from the big space and comfortable seat, there are 3 seatbelts here.
522.592 -> We are done with the exterior and interior review. Let's do a test drive this time. Let's go!
528.554 -> The first thing I have noticed when I got in is that the AC is very cold.
533.469 -> Yes, as in. The number 1 is not what you will expect as the fan speed 1
538.286 -> It's like it's already on 2.
540.262 -> Strong AC is really Nissan's trademark. Guaranteed, the AC is cold.
544.778 -> Second, the steering wheel is soft. If I will rate this 1-5, 5 being the softest, it's around 3.7.
556.349 -> It's soft, softer than the ordinary.
559.059 -> It's easy to use, it's good for the city.
561.362 -> It has a center console but it's low, so your legs have a wide space. You can spread them.
566.719 -> The shape of the door opener is weird, but it's functional. It's easy to hold and open.
574.328 -> The engine power response is okay on normal driving. We've just started but we're already at 60km/hr.
582.497 -> The suspension is not bad as well. If I will grade it 1-5 with 5 being the softest, it would be around 3.2.
590.583 -> It OK as well, the suspension is good.
593.633 -> The braking power is not something that you're not used to, because the initial bite is there, but it's not too strong. you will just feel it, then when you press on it, it gets stronger.
603.416 -> On the shifting, you will feel it just a very little bit, but it's nothing bothersome. It's just a little bit.
611.025 -> Now let's try to speed up a bit.
626.57 -> On speeding up, it goes fast. But it's on normal driving that it excels. That's when it is fast.
635.158 -> There, a little pressing, that's where it excels. You will feel it immediately.
639.059 -> But when you speed up to the fullest, the noise is louder, compared to the speed. But it's still fast, It's OK. This can overtake for sure.
648.936 -> In fairness, it's easy to use, it's fast, spacious. The seat is soft. The steering wheel, shifter, I didn't feel awkward. It's like I just sat down but it feels like everything is already part of my body.
662.631 -> That's how it feels.
672.652 -> In fairness, that road is rough and full of holes but the suspension is good. It's not jarring. Your fall is light.
684.215 -> That's where you will appreciate its suspension.
687.146 -> Yes, it's destructed.
688.764 -> There are lots of roads that are destroyed. With this, you will comfortable on rough roads.
693.387 -> Here, I'll shoot it on a hole.
697.679 -> As if it's not deep.
699.369 -> Right? You will think it's not deep because it's falling and rising is light.
705.124 -> And it's not a harsh fall.
706.52 -> Here's another one, it's deep again.
711.197 -> The suspension is good.
712.839 -> In the city, you will need that initial power where its pull is fast in the beginning. You will feel its acceleration at the start, it's good.
721.935 -> Let's get it on craters again
735.668 -> Seriously, it's just calm on craters.
740.932 -> Let's try the radio.
745.518 -> It's okay
747.259 -> Yeah, the radio is okay. The engine strength is just right for city driving. It's very easy, the engine is not having difficulty.
755.44 -> Right now we're at 60km/hr. My rev is just 1,500 RPM.
765.603 -> We're at 80, 1.900 RPM. 80km/hr.
771.015 -> This is a 4-speed automatic, but it's okay
773.85 -> You will feel that the car is not light, you know it's solidly built. That's how it feels.
780.168 -> The AC is really perfect for the weather here in the Philippines.
784.292 -> It's strong, you won't sweat out. It's just on fan speed 1 and it's already enough.
791.066 -> Let's try the turning radius.
801.421 -> It's in!
803.787 -> Its turning radius is over 2 lanes.
807.366 -> In fairness, this is delightful because it's comfortable and very easy.
813.184 -> And it's not hot inside.
816.305 -> I'm done with the test drive. Now let's see what Ellaine has to say. Let's go!
822.101 -> Game, it's my turn.
824.46 -> First of all, with 5 being the softest, my grade for the steering is 3.9.
830.735 -> For t#he power, it's okay on normal driving. It's like slowly, you will feel it progressing. It's not too fast but it can overtake and it has speed.
841.72 -> The braking
845.606 -> Smooth. It does get stuck and the progression is good.
849.365 -> It's not sudden.
850.362 -> It's not sudden but it's strong.
852.577 -> The visibility is very good for ladies because you will completely see the front of the car.
858.993 -> The hood is not very visible because it's low but you will see the front. You will completely see the road because the dashboard is low.
868.508 -> Here on the side, the door is low. You will also see the road on the side. The visibility of the side mirror is okay as well.
878.174 -> The height is just right, you will easily see those on the sides when someone would pass by, or when you will hit something, you will see it right away.
886.642 -> It's seriously very easy to drive. This will do for beginners.
890.409 -> The suspension is very comfortable
893.197 -> Because there are rough roads in this area but it just takes it lightly. The car does not fall harshly.
900.334 -> My leg space is nice here. It's not legroom anymore, it's leg space. The front and sides are spacious. Your knee will not hit into anything. It's like your lower body is just free.
912.645 -> That's for a 5'7.
914.692 -> I'm 5'4!
915.809 -> 5'4, sorry.
917.761 -> Who's that 5'7?!
919.787 -> She's 5'4 tall. That's for a 5'4.
922.169 -> But for me, there are still some hits. But it's roomy.
925.159 -> Seriously, if you will see how the holes here look like, it's not for a city.
931.026 -> The holes are big, but when you drive on it, it's like it just glides the wheels.
937.293 -> All the holes are really drove on.
940.987 -> Because I wanted to try it. The thing I really liked the most here is the AC. I'm not worn out.
946.782 -> It's too hot in the Philippines, it gets so hot. But the AC is going along, it can battle the hot weather.
954.725 -> And just so the viewers would know, we're just on fan speed 1, then our thermostat has been turned down to half because it's too cold.
964.482 -> usually, my thermostat is always on max on other cars.
967.365 -> It's just the fan getting adjusted.
969.151 -> But for this one, you won't be able to take it if you don't lower down the thermostat because it's cold even at noon.
974.874 -> For those that are sweaty. this will suit you. But for those that are not used to cold, perhaps you can save up.
983.322 -> You can just turn off the AC.
986.473 -> Let's check how noisy or quiet it is here inside.
993.036 -> 55.5 decibels. What I can say here is that the car is really quiet. But what you will hear really is the fan of the AC, because it's really cold. But when you turn it off, it's quieter.
1007.113 -> When the AC is turned off, the engine is only at 45.5.
1027.027 -> Thanks a lot again to Nissan Sta. Rosa. I will introduce you to our Ka-Tandems here.
1036.284 -> I am inviting you all to our dealership in Nissan Sta. Rosa.
1044.872 -> We are inviting you to our showroom for our low downpayment.
1051.512 -> Now we're here at the segment called "The Good and The Bad"
1058.286 -> Let's start with the bad. The first bad thing that we have seen here is the exterior look. It depends on you, if you like its appearance, then it's good. But if not, then no. For us, it doesn't suit our taste well.
1070.167 -> This has no parking sensors or reverse camera, but this is where you can practice your driving skills and senses.
1077.514 -> The interior is mostly made up of hard plastic but that's durable. However, it's not soft and luxurious. Just basic.
1088.655 -> The infotainment system, by the way, has no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. But you can still connect to Bluetooth.
1095.882 -> Let's move on to the good. First of all, the AC is super strong. You will not sweat in here, as in. Until now, we're just on fan speed 1 and the thermostat is only at 40%. The AC is really cold.
1110.89 -> I'm delighted at its suspension because the car does not crash. It can take the big holes and it just glides on those.
1119.421 -> Comfortable. The steering wheel is very soft, easy to use for city driving. If there are many turns in your place, it's very smooth and easy to use.
1129.946 -> The visibility on this car is very good as well, it will be good for beginners and women. It's so easy to carry.
1136.791 -> The engine power is fine for me as well because the response is already good on your first step.
1143.087 -> I liked the overall driving experience of this car. You will really enjoy it and you will love it more as you drive it.
1150.696 -> The longer you use it, you will feel that it's okay. The space here is nice as well. The legroom and knee room are okay. The trunk is very big, you can put so much stuff in there.
1164.618 -> Last but not the least, the seat is soft and very comfortable.
1168.878 -> Let's move on to the verdict. You go first.
1171.452 -> My verdict here, if you need an everyday car, if you are a first-time driver, and you always go to an office, you want a comfortable and easy to use, spacious, strong AC, big space at the back, this is the one you should get.
1188 -> I'll just add, this is really perfect for drivers. okay for beginners and affordable.
1195.394 -> Hopefully, you enjoyed our video today.
1197.394 -> Thank you so much for watching.
1199.8 -> Onto the next video now!
