The eleventh-generation Nissan Gloria is a rear-drive Japanese sedan built around smooth inline and V6 petrol power, offering executive comfort with the driving manners of a traditional large saloon rather than a front-drive family car.
Petrol engines dominate here, sent to the rear wheels for balanced handling and relaxed cruising. A 2.5 AT pairs a smooth six with a conventional automatic, while the 3.0 CVT uses a variable transmission for seamless, stepless acceleration. Both suit long highway journeys; the larger Nissan Gloria engine simply pulls harder when loaded.
