The new Nissan Almera is a pretty decent piece of kit; especially that turbo three mill. It’s capable of some impressive fuel consumption figures, a point that Edaran Tan Chong Motor Sdn. Bhd. (ETCM) is keen to drive home. It recently held the Nissan Almera Turbo Fuel Efficiency Charity Drive campaign; a fun challenge that encouraged Nissan Almera owners to help make a positive impact on the lives of people who faced sudden hardship due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
