Dongfeng Nissan has unveiled a new exterior color for its NX8 SUV, named “Xishi” (喜柿), developed in collaboration with the cultural program “Shangxinle Gugong” (上新了故宫). This exclusive color, available on the Max and Brand Master editions, is inspired by the ripe persimmons found in the Forbidden City during autumn, symbolizing good fortune and prosperity in traditional Chinese culture. The “Xishi” color utilizes a high-end 3C2B automotive paint process, undergoing extensive color matching and durability testing to ensure a premium finish.
A Splash of Color and Comfort
Beyond the exterior, Dongfeng Nissan is also introducing a new “Chengyi” (橙意) interior option for the entire NX8 lineup. This interior features a low-saturation, warm orange palette designed to create a soft and inviting ambiance. For a limited time, customers opting for the “Chengyi” interior will receive it as a complimentary upgrade and will also be gifted exclusive merchandise from the “Shangxinle Gugong” collaboration.
Enhanced Ownership Experience
Dongfeng Nissan is bolstering the ownership experience for the NX8 with its new “Three Worries-Free” service package. This comprehensive service covers three key areas: the electric drive system (including batteries, motor, and control unit), routine minor repairs, and tire wear. This initiative aims to provide peace of mind and reduce ownership costs for NX8 drivers.
To further incentivize potential buyers, the brand is offering a range of attractive benefits. These include trade-in bonuses, loyalty rewards for existing Dongfeng Nissan owners, complimentary vehicle upgrades, and tailored financial plans. These promotions are designed to make the NX8 a more accessible and appealing choice in the competitive SUV market.
