L10 (2006)
2009 Nissan Livina (L10; pre-facelift, China)

The regular length two-row model with a shorter rear overhang is called the Livina or Livina XR, or in Taiwan as Livina Urban or Livina Sport, while the extended length three-row model with a longer rear overhang is called Livina Geniss in China or Grand Livina elsewhere. The longer three-row model is a station wagon-style MPV, while the two-row model is considered as a roomy hatchback or a European-style mini MPV.

Power for the Livina comes from 1.5-liter, 1.6-liter or 1.8-liter four-cylinder engines that are shared with the Tiida/Latio/Versa. The 1.5- and 1.6-liter engines are paired with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. The 1.8-liter option is paired with either a 6-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.

Livina Geniss/Grand Livina

The Livina Geniss in China or Grand Livina in other countries is a three-row model with longer rear overhang. The Grand Livina was launched in Indonesia on April 5, 2007. It was initially available in 1.5 SV, 1.5 XV, 1.8 XV and 1.8 Ultimate trim levels. Later, the 1.5 S and 1.5 Ultimate, as well as the sporty 1.5 and 1.8 Highway Star with body kit were added into the lineup.

Only the 1.8-liter engine is offered in the Philippines and Brazil, while the South African market get the 1.6-liter variant.

In Malaysia, the Grand Livina was launched in December 2007 with two engine options: HR16DE (manual and automatic) and MR18DE (automatic only).[2][3] A "Tuned by Impul" edition was made available in January 2009.[4] In June 2011, the facelifted variants was launched. Changes included: new front grille, black dashboard opposed to beige and instrument faces finished in white opposed to black.[5] Later the same month, the "Tuned by Impul" version was updated.[6] In July 2012, an "Autech" variant was introduced.[7]

Livina X-Gear

In 2008, the Livina X-Gear was introduced in Indonesia. Based on the regular Livina, the X-Gear has black over fenders, side body garnish, sporty rugged bumpers and roof rail which made it looks like a crossover. The Indonesian market Livina X-Gear is powered by 1.5-liter engine, while the Brazilian variant is powered by a 1.6-liter engine. In Malaysia, the Livina X-Gear was launched in September 2011 powered by Nissan's HR16DE engine.[8]

2011 update

On August 25, 2010, the updated models of both the Livina and Livina Geniss were launched in China. On February 10, 2011, the updated models of the Grand Livina were launched in Indonesia by Nissan Motor Indonesia. Changes mainly focused on minor exterior changes such as the front grille, wheel design, side body molding, side turning signals, as well as additions of existing higher model features applied on the lower models. Interior change involves color changes from beige and brown to black.

The facelifted Grand Livina was offered in 1.5 S, 1.5 SV, 1.5 XV, 1.5 Ultimate, and 1.5 & 1.8 Highway Star model grades. The 1.8 XV and 1.8 Ultimate were discontinued. The facelifted Grand Livina Highway Star was launched on September 27, 2011. On August 31, 2012, the XV and Ultimate shared the same sporty Autech front bumper as the Highway Star, but full body kits and sporty alloy wheels are exclusive for the Highway Star only.

The L10-series Livina were still offered in Brazil and South Africa after the L11-series Livina models were introduced in China and Southeast Asian countries.

L11 (2013)

Spy shots of the L11-series Livina were published online on October 8, 2012.[9] The L11-series Livina was first introduced in China at the 15th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition in April 2013, with redesigned front and rear fascias.[10]

On May 29, 2013, the L11-series Grand Livina and Grand Livina X-Gear were launched in Indonesia. Locally marketed as an all-new model, the L11 models have revised front end, front fenders and rear panels with distinctive taillamps and trunk garnishes. The Grand Livina X-Gear comes with different front bumpers, black over fenders, black body cladding and roof rails. The CVT option replaced the 4-speed automatic transmission in this model. Trim levels for the Indonesian market Grand Livina are SV, XV and Highway Star. The 1.5-liter HR15DE engine is equipped with dual injectors and dual variable valve timing control (CVTC), while the 1.8-liter MR18DE engine was only available for the X-Gear and retained the 6-speed manual or regular 4-speed automatic transmissions. Nissan Motor Indonesia decided to end the production of the Grand Livina X-Gear with 1.8-liter engine, citing lack of demand.

The L11-series Grand Livina for the Malaysian market has the 1.6-liter engine and 1.8-liter engine.[11] The 1.6-liter manual Grand Livina has since been discontinued in Malaysia.[12]

The L11-series two-row Livina C-Gear was introduced in China, and later also available as the X-Gear in other markets including Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Taiwan.

In 2017, it was rumored that the next generation three-row Grand Livina would be based on Mitsubishi Xpander, as the result of the newly joined Mitsubishi Motors to the Renault–Nissan–Mitsubishi Alliance.[14][15][16]

The second-generation Livina was launched in Indonesia on February 19, 2019, a month after Nissan ceased the production of the L11 Grand Livina.[17][18] It is a rebadged and redesigned variant of the Xpander and manufactured alongside it by Mitsubishi Motors plant in Central Cikarang, Bekasi, West Java. Nissan decided to use the "Livina" name in this model due to the established nameplate usage in the country.[19] As it is based on the Xpander, it is offered in one body variant only and has some crossover SUV-like proportions compared to previous generation's low slung station wagon-like proportions.[20] Compared to the Xpander, Nissan has redesigned several body panels including the Nissan's V-Motion grille, headlamps, front bumper, front fenders, front side doors, rear bumper, rear tailgate metal sheet casing and taillamp internals.

The second-generation Livina is available in four trim levels: E, EL, VE and VL. The Livina's interior color is black-brown instead of black-beige on the Xpander, with the exception of the VL trim which retained the full black interior from the Sport trim of the Xpander. It is equipped with a 7-inch infotainment system with a navigation system, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and smartphone mirroring. In June 2020, the Sporty Package based on the VE trim was made available in 100 units.[21]

The Livina is only sold in Indonesia, although exports was said to be under consideration.[22][23]
