+ | The Nissan Elgrand E50 was released in 1997 as the successor to the Nissan Caravn/ | ||
+ | Initially released as a 7 or 8 seat vehicle in a variety of trim levels with a wide range of optional extras. | ||
+ | |||
+ | There were a number of optional trim levels, each with a varying basic spec list; V, VG, X, XL, Highway Star, Autech Rider, S Edition. | ||
+ | The Autech Rider was actually a V spec E50 that was then taken to Autech for refinement. They added new bumpers, side skirts, exhaust, alloy wheels and suspension. The spec list was then customised by the buyer, which often included most of the optional extras, giving the illusion that the Rider itself was the highest specced. However, the X/XL and S Edition were the three top spec models. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Highway Star, Rider and S Edition were the only variants that added a body kit to the base vehicle. | ||
+ | The S Edition E50 was the last line of the generation before Nissan moved to the E51. This model included additional features such as auto tilt wing mirrors to help with reversing. | ||

+ | The S Edition is only available as a facelift model. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Four engine variants were available to the E50. Initially, for the pre-facelift models, there was a choice between the VG33 3.3l V6 petrol or the QD32 3.2l Turbo Diesel. | ||
+ | Late in the pre-facelift lifespan, a third engine option was made available, the ZD30 3.0l Neo Turbo Diesel engine which added more power from a slightly smaller engine, and better fuel efficiency. However this engine is regarded as the lease reliable of the four available due to issues with the fuel pump and overboosting of the turbo. | ||
+ | The ZD30 was then also made available to the facelift generation of the E50, the only engine spanning both revisions of this model. Nissan also released the facelift E50 with the VQ35 3.5l V6 engine. This engine was one of Nissan' | ||
