In the Chinese market, it is usually entered through the “parallel import” channel.

Among them, Y61 has become the most popular in some countries and regions due to its reliability. The current model Y62 is a late facelift, and the Paudi Model is a mid-term facelift (2018) version – if you are more concerned about SUVs, I believe you will not be unfamiliar with the image of this model.

The outer packaging of the model product is in red style, and the white back cover has the authorization information of the car brand; the inner packaging is a foam box, and the base has no fixing screws; the size of the model body is large (refer to the comparison between the above picture and the watch), and the quality is low.
It is worth mentioning that Paudi said that this is a sample of decorative panels, and there are small defects such as peeling paint, which does not represent the quality of the details of the product, and is for reference only.
Referring to the real car, the grille on the front of the model is a large-area hollow chrome trim. It is recommended not to touch or wipe it frequently to avoid scratches; the headlights have color/separate interior depictions, which also reflect the LED. The configuration of the daytime running lights; some details of the water tank can be seen through the hollow net; the radar details of the whole car are restored, and the configuration and shape refer to the real car.
The engine compartment cover is connected to the car body in the form of “puppy legs + hydraulic rod”. This car has a phenomenon of “not lifting” – that is, it is impossible to maintain the opening angle with a certain probability – the solution is to adjust the angle of the “hydraulic rod” to make it The sleeve is stuck; the front cover has flocked “sound insulation cotton” details on the negative side, and the structural engraving line is restored with reference to the real car.

The exterior rearview mirrors on both sides can be retracted and folded, with color separation, turn signal details, and probe configuration expressions; front/side window transparent parts have “trademark” details; passenger B-pillars have “nameplate” configuration – carefully Observing and recognizing words such as “made by Nissan Motor Company, brand, vehicle number, number of 7 people” – copy the numbers carefully enough!

The red taillight is one of the main features of the mid-term facelift of the Y62. The model shows details such as chrome-plated frame and color separation internal structure; the radar probe shape restores the real car. It is worth mentioning that the rear cover of this car (decorative panel sample) has a paint peeling defect – the actual play found that the white car paint still needs to be more careful.
