The Nissan Almera Turbo Finally Finalised Its Pricing, Starting From RM79k
Although the all-new Nissan Almera Turbo is a nicely-specced compact sedan, the only thing that would complete the picture was the price. Nissan’s new sedan was estimated to exist in the RM80,000 to RM90,000 price bracket, and the final figures were kept in the ballpark.
