Overview

The N6 is the second model in Nissan's N series following the N7. While the N7 is fully electric, the N6 is a plug-in hybrid. It is similar in size to the now-discontinued Maxima. [1]

It was unveiled in Beijing alongside the Teana Plus on October 17, 2025. The N6 shares its platform with the N7. [2] The NR15 engine used in the N6 began production earlier in the month. [3] [4]

Design

The N6 uses a similar design to that of the N7. There's a full-width light bar, boomerang-shaped headlights, an illuminated Nissan logo, a closed-off grille, hidden door handles, and the NISSAN wordmark embedded into the rear light bar. The exhaust pipe is also tucked away. [5] [1] [4]

The use of Nissan's V-Motion grille design continues with the N6. [1] [2]

Powertrain

The N6 uses a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated inline 4 codenamed NR15 producing 101 horsepower. [6] It is paired with an electric motor producing 208 horsepower and a lithium iron phosphate battery. [2]

The N6's battery size is 21.1 kWh and is claimed to be the largest in its segment. [2]
