Fuel economy

A more stringent standard for fuel economy (WLTP) was introduced from September 2017, and this model was not required to undergo that test. Its fuel economy measured under the previous test system was 33 - 43 mpg. However these figures are less likely to be achievable in real world driving and so should never be compared to another car's mpg which was measured under the newer, more realistic WLTP system.

Parts and service costs are fairly keen to attract fleet buyers, giving average running costs. Fuel consumption is acceptable rather than exceptional. Depreciation is only concerning to those who bought new.

Previous Primera ranges were generally reliable and his generation has been no different. Don’t be put off by high-milers, this is a car capable of covering massive distances. Buy with a full service history for total peace of mind.
