Coast Nissan - Your SR AWD Trim Guide for Confident Daily Drives around Templeton, CA

If traction, tech, and tidy dimensions top your wish list, the SR AWD configuration of Nissan’s subcompact SUV deserves a close look. It blends Intelligent All-Wheel Drive with advanced driver assistance and a premium-feeling interior to deliver all-weather assurance without sacrificing urban agility. Think confident starts on misty mornings, nimble lane changes with supportive assistance, and a composed ride over patched pavement thanks to an independent multi-link rear suspension unique to the AWD model.

SR AWD’s feature set reads like a smart commuter’s upgrade list. Safety Shield® 360 is standard, offering driver-assist fundamentals such as Blind Spot Warning and High Beam Assist, while SR layers on ProPILOT Assist 1.0 and Intelligent Cruise Control with traffic stop-go to help reduce fatigue in the ebb and flow of highway traffic. Parking remains easier with the Intelligent Around View® Monitor, which stitches together a 360-degree perspective that shines in tight downtown blocks and trailhead lots alike. Inside, leatherette-appointed seats with sport cloth inserts and a leather-wrapped steering wheel set a crisp tone, and standard Wireless Apple CarPlay® integration and Android Auto™ keep your commute and playlist streamlined on the NissanConnect® 12.3" touch-screen. For a more immersive cabin, add the available ten-speaker Bose Personal® Plus Audio System.

  • Intelligent All-Wheel Drive: Distributes power for improved takeoff and cornering confidence in slick or uneven conditions, while preserving the nimble feel you want day to day.
  • Independent Multi-link Rear Suspension: Enhances bump isolation and helps the SR AWD track smoothly through curves, giving it a refined ride quality uncommon in the class.
  • Intelligent Around View® Monitor: Provides a 360-degree view with selectable vantage points, helping you spot curbs, cyclists, and obstacles when space is tight.
  • ProPILOT Assist 1.0: Combines steering support with Intelligent Cruise Control for a more relaxed freeway experience on longer drives.
  • Bose Personal® Plus Audio System: Available ten-speaker setup that adds headrest speakers for a personalized soundstage on your terms.

Everyday usability is central to the SR AWD story. The 60/40-split rear seat simplifies grocery-and-gear juggling, while available heated front seats and a heated steering wheel add comfort on chilly coastal mornings. The myQ® Connected Garage feature is a small convenience that makes a big difference—no fumbling for remotes when you pull into the driveway. And with the available Panoramic Moonroof, the cabin brightens into a space that feels larger than its small footprint suggests.
