According to Thierry Sabbagh, Managing Director of Nissan Middle East:

“The Nissan Sunny continues to be a favorite for the region – selling over 474,500 units in the GCC alone since its introduction to the region in 1994. The all-new Sunny 2020 retains the essence of this sedan, while adding a sleek design and tech upgrades to provide an enhanced driving experience. The new look is striking and refined in equal measure, and we can’t wait for customers in the region to try out the all-new Sunny experience.”
