The Nissan Cefiro is a mid-size car that was produced by the Japanese automobile manufacture Nissan Motors. Introduced to Japan in 1988 as the A31 series four-door sedan, and exclusive to Japanese Nissan dealerships called Nissan Satio Store, the Cefiro initially shared its basic rear-wheel drive chassis with the Nissan L
aurel (sixth-generation) and the Nissan Skyline (R32). The Cefiro dropped its sporting pretensions in the second (A32) and third (A33) generations, switching to the front-wheel drive layout. In Europe and Australia, the A32 and A33 series models were sold as the Nissan Maxima. Nissan released the A31 series Cefiro sedan to Japan in 1988. The top-range model, called the GTS-R, used the same engine as found in the Skyline GTS-t (R32), a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-six cylinder engine capable of 210 PS (154 kW). Other variants came with other versions of the Nissan RB engine. Brand new, the Cefiro was slightly more expensive than the equivalent Nissan Skyline. Many versions featured HICAS four-wheel steering as well. Nissan took the unusual step of making a left-hand drive version of the Cefiro, sold in Latin America as a Nissan Laurel Altima - in most export markets this slot was filled by the Nissan Maxima. Unlike the Japanese versions, export models are fitted with a carburetted RB24 engine which was a single-cam 2.4-liter RB inline-six producing 141 hp (105 kW). From 1990, the A31 was facelifted and given a softer look with revised light and bumper/grill design as well as an updated interior. The Cefiro was introduced as a result of Toyota expanding its Mark II platform with the Toyota Cresta and Toyota Chaser triplets, with Nissan offering the Cefiro as a comparable third alternative to the Skyline and Laurel models, selling each vehicle at a separate Nissan dealership.
